Leaving false strength conventions behind

This is concerning me. I bought 3 4oz jars of the stuff back in late January when I was Corona-prepping, and I just opened the 3rd jar. I've not seen it anywhere on the shelves at my local grocery store. I might be forced try looking for some online soon.
I went shopping over the weekend and purchased the only jar of yeast left, 4oz jar of Fleischmann's Instant yeast for bread machines. Can I use that interchangeably in recipes that call for Active Dry?GrainsAndGains wrote: ↑Tue May 26, 2020 11:12 am Anyone else do some baking over the long weekend? I started on Friday afternoon...made challah, apple bread again, and brioche.
If anyone else is still struggling to get yeast...I was able to order a pound of SAF Instant Yeast (red) from Amazon for $12 the other day. It is scheduled to arrive between June 1st and June 4th. Maybe worth a shot...it might take a moment but yeast in a month is better than no yeast at all.
I have, without noticing any difference, but ymmv, especially if you are doing more sensitive baking.

I made what were effectively ginger blondies the other day; they were fucking good. Put both powdered and crystalized in them.
King Arthur says there's no difference beyond the fact that Instant Yeast might be a bit faster and you have to reduce the amount by 25% for bread machines. I think you'll be fine as long as you're keeping an eye on your dough.omaniphil wrote: ↑Tue May 26, 2020 12:58 pmI went shopping over the weekend and purchased the only jar of yeast left, 4oz jar of Fleischmann's Instant yeast for bread machines.

I've never made Shokupan but I made Hokkaido milk bread (basically Shokupan but a lot sweeter) a few weeks ago and it was so unbelievably soft.Manveer wrote: ↑Thu Jul 02, 2020 11:34 am I’ve only baked pizzas so far (a lot of them).
