Bulk purchase of easybake yeast sachets

saxmund

Does anyone know where I can buy breadmaker yeast in bulk in sachets? I know that you can get Allinson's easybake in tubs, and Doves in little orange packets. However, as I live on my own I don't make that much bread and when I tried Doves it was brilliant to start with - but soon I found it had lost its power. So is there anywhere I can buy sachets of easybake yeast in reasonable bulk - and with a discount?

Can you keep this in the freezer? I seem to remember that advice in the booklet that came with my bread maker.

I keep my 99p packets of dove in a lock and lock box in the fridge and it keeps for months

Can't answer your question, but you can definitely keep it in the freezer or fridge and use it straight from the freezer. I use the Dove's stuff in the orange packets.

We keep our Allinsons vacuum pack in the fridge......never had any problems.. and we don't bake that often.

I know this has been posted else where but did you know that if you ask at the bakery section in Tesco they will give you yeast FOC.

I didn't believe it at 1st but tried at my local tesco store and they did!:j

Believe that the same applies at Asda but as I on't go there cannot say for certain.

Thanks. Maybe I'll try the Doves again and keep it in the fridge or freezer, I was a bit worried about not working properly due to getting cold (but then I usually bake overnight, which gives it plenty of time to warm up).
