Old yeast?

Had a couple loaves do that because the yeast was old and only had enough oomph to do the first proof.

If you store yeast in the freezer it should last significantly longer without going off. I’ve got 5 year old yeast that still performs when I want it to.

I buy the jars instead of the packets and have started refrigerating them. May go ahead and start putting the extras in the freezer. Nice tip.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen it in jars here! We just have either the little packets or a big, flour sack kind of bag to buy it in. Jars sound nice because they’ll keep the moisture out much better.

Now I'm just imagining the scene from Young Frankenstein, but with yeast.
