Which brand yeast do you use? And do you use active dry yeast or rapid yeast?


I'm a little confused as the manual says to use active dry yeast. But reading articles online say that active dry yeast needs to be proofed, ie you must dissolve the yeast before adding to the machine.

So do you just add active dry yeast to the bread machine as is?

Me too... am just as confused too. Currently, am using the Levure Seche de Boulanger Dry Baker's Yeast (made in France). It's a brown box. Am using it for the breads that i have baked (cranberry & raisin, cheese and choc breads).

Will prob stick with this brand as it's been working so far - with the exception of the cheese bread. :idea: But I think that's because there may not be enuf water for cheese bread.

I saw that brand too. I'm trying out the Fleischmann active dry yeast today. It seems to be rising alright. Fingers crossed.
