Ach Food Companies Fleischmann's Bread Machine Yeast — Pack of 2 (4 oz Jars), Rapid-Rise Active Dry for Machines

Fleischmann's Bread Machine Yeast is a fast-acting active dry yeast in convenient 4 oz jars (pack of 2) designed for bread machines and rapid-rise recipes.

This two-jar pack from Ach Food Companies supplies the equivalent of 16 standard yeast envelopes in shelf-stable jars, making it easy to bake loaves, rolls, and quick-rise doughs without measuring tiny sachets. The formulation is tailored for machines and recipes that call for rapid-rise or instant active dry yeast, so you can expect consistent fermentation and reliable rise when recipes are followed. Stored properly, each jar delivers multiple batches over time and is a space-efficient pantry staple for home bakers.

How do I use this yeast in a bread machine?

Use Fleischmann's Bread Machine Yeast directly in the machine's pan without proofing, unless a recipe specifies otherwise. Add liquids and dry ingredients first, keeping yeast away from salt and liquid until the machine starts mixing for best performance.

• Measure yeast by teaspoon or gram according to your recipe.
• Place liquids and flours in the pan first, then add salt and other dry ingredients on top.
• Make a small well in the flour and add the yeast last, away from salt or wet ingredients.
• Use machine settings for rapid-rise or white bread as instructed.

Will this work for recipes that call for instant yeast or active dry yeast?

This product is formulated for rapid-rise applications and can substitute for instant or active dry yeast in many recipes, often without additional proofing. Adjustments may be needed for sensitive recipes; follow the recipe’s rise times and baking cues rather than relying solely on set times.

• Substitute by weight: match grams of yeast called for in recipe.
• No rehydration required for most bread machines; sprinkle directly into dry ingredients.
• For very delicate doughs, consider a short proof to confirm activity.
• Adjust rising times if dough overproofs or underperforms.

How should I store the jars for best longevity?

Keep unopened jars in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. After opening, refrigerate the jar with a tight lid or freeze portions in an airtight container to maintain freshness and yeast activity over months.

• Unopened: pantry or cupboard at room temperature.
• Opened: refrigerate with a sealed lid to preserve potency.
• Long-term: freeze small measured portions for multi-month storage.
• Keep away from moisture and strong odors to avoid contamination.

Who is this for? Home bakers, families, and anyone using a bread machine who wants a reliable, space-saving yeast supply. This two-jar pack suits frequent bakers who prefer buying in bulk compared to single envelopes, people who bake a variety of rapid-rise loaves and rolls, and those who need an easy-to-use yeast option for machine or manual mixing. It’s practical for bakers who value consistent rise, straightforward storage, and fewer trips to the store.
