Question: In what forms can you buy yeast in!?
Answers:
For baking, there are active dry yeast, quick-rising yeast and compressed yeast cakes!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Wine Yeast, Beer Yeast, and Bakers Yeast!. All are just different strains and variations of the same basic species of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) , bakers yeast being the least specialized!. All of these you can find in liquid and freeze-dried forms!. Both liquid and dried have their advantages and disadvantages, and it comes down personal preferences!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I've always bought dry yeast, but it can also be purchased in liquid form!. Dry yeast is cheaper, but liquid yeast is better because it acts more quickly and more aggressively!. I've had fine results with dry yeast, just make sure that it activates before you use it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Powder or fresh!.
Fleishmanns makes a good powdered yeast( as does Odeker) and Budweiser makes a good fresh yeast!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Packets of dried yeast, tubes of culture (White Labs), and smack packs (WYeast)!. My preference is for smack packs!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

both in liquid and solidWww@FoodAQ@Com
