Hi this is an odd topic agreed, but Google has no results that helped so here goes.
In the past I have been using Edmonds Surebake which works perfectly well, but at about $10/250g is jolly expensive.
Recently I brought some Instant yeast 500g for a couple of dollars new. It is 'Instant Dried Yeast' and a teaspoon in warm water results in a hugely active bowl within a few minutes as you would expect, but it is a flop in the breadmaker with virtually no rise in the dough.
Can anyone suggest whats likely to be the issue here (apart from biting the bullet and buying more Edmonds).
Edmonds has got conditioning agents which are probably the secret weapon I dont know?
Im thinking of trying it again with 1/4 tspn citric acid but welcome anything more relevant.
Cheers,
Alistair.
