## Description

High quality yeast great to use for all baking. Active Dry Yeast is cake yeast in a semi-dormant state.

When rehydrated, it provides ultimate baking activity in all yeast dough, low sugar to highly sweetened breads.

Review: GOOD PRODUCT AT A VERY GOOD PRICE. - SECOND BATCH, IT HAS PROVIDED EXCELLENT RISE IN MY BREAD. SHALL CONTINUE TO BUY THIS YEAST.
Review: It's yeast - I recently bought the Red Star Active Dry Yeast, 2 Pound Bag, and I’m extremely happy with my purchase. The package arrived promptly and was well-sealed, ensuring that the yeast stayed fresh and undamaged during shipping. I’m using this yeast for a homemade CO2 generator in my plant room, and it has been working exceptionally well. The yeast activates quickly and produces a steady stream of CO2, which is essential for the growth and health of my plants. Since I started using it, I’ve noticed a significant improvement in the vigor and overall growth rate of my indoor garden. The quality of the yeast is excellent. It dissolves easily in water, and I haven’t encountered any issues with clumping or inconsistent activation. The instructions on the package are clear and easy to follow, which made setting up my CO2 generator a breeze. I simply mix the yeast with sugar and water, and within a short period, it starts producing CO2 efficiently. Another great aspect of this product is the quantity. The 2-pound bag is very generous and provides plenty of yeast for multiple batches of CO2 production. This makes it a cost-effective solution for maintaining a high CO2 environment in my plant room over an extended period. Although I’m using this yeast primarily for my plants, I’ve also used it for baking a few times, and it performs just as well. It rises consistently and produces excellent bread and pastries, which is a nice bonus. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with the Red Star Active Dry Yeast. It’s a high-quality, versatile product that has significantly benefited my indoor gardening setup. If you’re looking for an effective and reliable yeast for CO2 generation or baking, I highly recommend this product. It has made a noticeable difference in my plant room, and I’m confident it will meet your needs as well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works better than the single packs in my experiences
*by R***L on March 27, 2026*

This is worth the extra money I paid it is fresher I believe simply because it worked so much matter than the three spot paper packs I was buying. I keep it in the freezer to increase shelf life .
