Regarding the question by Dara, "I was just in Sam's and noticed they had
bulk yeast--can this be used in a breadmaker?"

The answer Dara is "Yes".  I've been using that yeast both the conventional
way and the bread machine method too.

Dara asked: "What would be the amount to use compared to the rapid rise?"
I use 1 1/4 teaspoons per loaf...but have used as much as 2 1/4 tsp...but my
loaf was...shall we say...raising the roof on the bread machine using 2 1/4
teaspoons.

Dara: "Also, how would you store the unused portion and how long would
it last?"
Dara, I store mine in a zip lock type bag in the freezer and what I have
left is over a year old...and still kicking.
