[QUOTE="BadgeBunny, post: 2342941, member: 1242"] :rollingla Me, too!! All of the above posts are pretty much spot on ... I've used yeast that has been stored in the freezer for 5 years (but threw in a little extra for good measure) and it's worked fine. You might also consider keeping a sourdough starter. It has to be fed regularly (like all live critters) but it will always be there when you need it ... I've had several sourdough starters over the years (all I started myself with varying degrees of success). Now I've decided to quit piddling around with wild yeasts here and just order a SF starter off Amazon. Those starters, from what I've read, have distinct flavors (nothing I've been able to reproduce with wild yeasts here in Oklahoma) and a lot more "bounce" (again, nothing I've been able to reproduce with any kind of consistency with yeasts floating around here in Oklahoma). Granted, I was trying to harvest wild yeast in the driest few years we've had on record, but still ... I WANT a SF starter ... so these are my excuses ... :D [/QUOTE]
