- Bakers Instant Yeast

I have been using this product for baking bread for a few years now. It is an amazing product: very easy to use, gives good rise and does not have any off flavours.

It's a good quality potent yeast. Never faced any issues activating it unlike other brands. My only complaint is the packaging; the lid is not air tight and has a loose grip. If you don't store it properly in another air tight container the yeast will catch ants.

The media could not be loaded. I love baking especially making bread as it relaxes me. However, the poor quality yeast that I was getting made that a hassle because the yeast is everything when it comes to making bread. This was the first time I ordered yeast online and so so happy with the product. I have used it twice so far, along with their bread improver and both time the dough was perfect.Most important thing while proofing the yeast is that, make sure the water is not too hot. I microwave a cup of water (as per instruction) for about 30 seconds, test it by inserting my finger in it, and then only add it to the yeast. It ferments within 10 minutes, and the bread rises in about an hour (I keep it in a warm place and use bread improver).The products were all soft and chewy (I used more whole wheat that flour) and the naan (not in picture) was especially good. So far I have made, pizza dough, Foccacia bread, loaf bread, and garlic naan. All with wholewheat. And each was just perfect.Already recommended this yeast to friends who loved my FB post and asked for the yeast.

I ordered this in October 2019 and the product is good to use till August 2020. For the first 2-3 months this yeast worked beautifully. The yeast would activate in 2-3 minutes and the dough would take max 1-1.5 hours to rise. However now I have observed the yeast has lost its power. It doesn’t activate well and the dough takes forever to rise. Not a value for money if it’s gonna be useless in 2 months.

Packaging: not the best but quite decent.Used ForI used this for a wide range of breads from long ferment (more than 8hrs) to short ferment (2hrs) doughs. Blooms quickly and gives the right rise to the bread. Would highly recommend this brand as the others were a Ras disappointing.

I bought this after seeing so many positive reviews, but the pack I got is no good. It gives out a few weak bubbles during proofing, and bread does not rise when using this yeast. Tried three times, each time with the same disappointment and then chucked the pack. The packaging date of the pack was current month itself, June 2020 - batch number 161. So, even though the yeast is fresh, it does not work.

In my 4th attempt of bread making, I was able to make the perfect bread. For whom who found the yeast useless, might be commiting the same mistakes which I did. Do not add yeast in very warm water otherwise yeast will die. So use Luke warm water add pinch of sugar in it and then add yeast. Keep the mixture as it is for 5 mins. N then add it to ur flour. The dough will take at Least 2 hrs for a good rise.

The yeast works, that's for sure. Activates and blooms really well and bakes breads just fine. Taking away a mark for being expensive.
