This is a reliable yeast. It has lasted in my refrigerator for over a year without loosing it's quality. I use it for breads and pizzas in my bread machine and for dough I mix by hand.

Reduce mixing time by 10%-30% and shorten rising time by up to 50% with this Lessafre SAF-Instant Red dry yeast 1 lb. vacuum pack! This instant dry yeast, also known as "bread machine yeast", differs from active dry yeast in that it does not need to be dissolved in warm water before it is used, saving you time and, ultimately, money!
Versatile enough to be used in a variety of bread-making processes with sugar levels up to 12%, it can be poured directly into a mixer, mixed with flour, or added at the beginning of a mixing process. All yeast, which acts as a leavening agent, converts sugars found in dough into carbon dioxide, causing the dough to expand. This process is what helps give bread the soft and airy texture we all know and love! This 1 lb. bag of instant dry yeast is perfect for making delicious bagels, croissants, donuts, and more.

Great yeast, never fails us. I like that the case comes with 20 individual pounds of yeast because I can pull what is needed for the day and leave the rest in storage.

Love this yeast. I mix it in directly with flour for making my yeast breads, cold everything, but this yeast never fails me. Great oven spring with it.

Good stuff! Showed up as expected
The Lesaffre SAF-Instant Red Dry Yeast (1 lb. Vacuum Pack) is a top-tier instant yeast, widely trusted by professional and home bakers for its fast-acting, reliable performance.
What can I say? Never lets me down and I've used this brand many times. Stores well in freezer (unopened) or fridge (in a jar with a tight-fitting lid). Gives a lovely flavor to home-baked bread. Baking ~4 loaves a week, one pound lasts quite a while.
We use it in all of our breads.
When it first arrived i was a little hesitant because the packaging was closed really tight no air in the bag so the powder was hard until I opened it to get some air in it?? it was shipped out really fast and good condition. It was just the packaging
Accept no substitute. This is what you want to use for your instant yeast.
Best yeast ever! I've used various brands of yeast and this one is the best so far. Definitely recommend!
Great item. We use it daily, go through a bag every couple days. Have never had a problem that we attributed to the yeast quality or activity.
The best, I am so fortunate to work with you.
This is the only brand I trust for making bread and Ive been baking bread daily for years. Love the automatic ship.
a great quality yeast at an excellent price. our baker loves this product. we use it for many of our breads and baking. highly recommend!
The best yeast hands down honestly I love the individual packaging makes it easy for storage and use. This brand is hard to find where we live so I. Glad I can get it here
This yeast has never failed me. I go through a pound in around 3 months, so I haven't had any issues with expiring. I'm always getting a consistent product for my breads and pastries, and I love the big size so I font have to fumble around with "individual" serving packets.
Excellent quality yeast from lesaffre. This is our preferred brand and it activates quicky and the bread always rises great. Value is great when you purchase by the case.
This is such a great, reliable yeast. And, as a plus, it costs less than any other one I’ve found! I purchased this 1lb pack and keep it in a jar in my fridge. I’ve kept this brand for over a year before, and it’ll still work great!
