2 x 125g Doves Farm Gluten Free Instant Dry Yeast For Bread Making + 22x30cm Linen Bread Bag Perfect Bake at Home and Bread Machine Fast Action Active Dried Yeast For Bread, 3 Piece Set

Ordered for a friend. She made some fantastic bread with this. When I asked for some I was made to pay. I asked why. Her response was. I knead the dough.

Great value and have been making really nice loads with this

Awful weather, out of bread and my cupboard stock was well past the use by date. This came in less than 18 hours with prime…as did the flour. Quicker for me than getting the car out to go to a shop. Useful bread bag too.

Arrived well packaged and on time.

In this set you get 2 sets of quick yeast (the kind that's in dry tiny round granules), and a linen bread bag. It's not a full bread-making kit, but it gets you part of the way there.The linen bag measures 22cm x 30cm which is big enough for a small, long loaf of bread, so you will need to bake your bread in a particular size and shape for it to fit. The bag seems to be of ok quality. It's a simple, very basic drawstring bag and the linen used is not very thick. You can see the small holes in the mesh of the linen a little.If you're wondering why they give a linen bag: I believe the idea is that storing bread in linen prevents the bread from becoming too moist in storage and helps prevent mouldiness, because the linen is breathable (unlike a plastic bag). Although it prevents excessive moisture, the linen does also help retain some moisture (better than just leaving it out in the open) to prevent your bread going stale and drying out too quickly. In addition, the linen protects your bread from dust, bugs and things like that.

One of the first things you will learn if you get a bread machine is that not all yeasts are equal. Some will work with some machines but not with others. One of the biggest dividers is yeast-first vs yeast-last machines, yeasts which work with the first type may give disastrous results with the second type and vice versa. This yeast works fine with my Panasonic yeast-first machine.The advice on the packet is to keep in a sealed container in a cool dry place after opening, but unless you are going to use it up really quickly, making multiple loaves a week, it would actually be better to decant into a container and keep in a freezer.The linen drawstring bag included in this pack is too small to hold a loaf. Maybe a couple of bread rolls, but not much more than that.
