can it read 80 deg. for yeast for breadmaking?
2007284
No. The degrees don't go that low. You would probably be better off with a candy thermometer.
2007285
No, it can't. I bought the Taylor Roast & Yeast Thermometer which goes down to 105F which is the temperature for dissolving yeast.

What an interesting idea! I have not done that, but I have used it to check temperature of the water in proofing yeast. I've also do not start the temp display until the thermometer is inserted in the meat. (Faster that way). I think I'll bake some bread this weekend to see how it performs. My tried-and-true method on yeast breads is the light-touch-on-top for rolls and tapping on crusty French bread while listening for a hollow sound.

I use bread machine yeast. It comes in a small jar and I use about a teaspoon more than the recipes call for.

Yes. There is a range button to select out to 3 decimal places. You could read up to .333 A (33.3 mA).

Yes it is yeast but spoon for spoon is different and it is not typical bread yeast. I would not use it for anything unless u experiment it is very good but u have to know exchange amounts. Excellent for bread. But expensive

I just made my first loaf and it is dense and only half the loaf pan. (I've never ever made bread before so I wasn't sure what it should look like). I wonder if I should have soaked my yeast or used 120 degree water like the yeast bottle suggests... anyone else do this?

I use it to make regular yeast bread and also many misc. kinds of pound cakes etc.I have had no problems at all. Love the size. : )

You will have to check that the watts used by your bread baker is at or under 1500W to be sure(you can also find out by using the amps, volts, and math). If you have no other information then nothing can guarantee that your bread maker will work. Since I moved to Germany I have used many gold source transformers to run my electronics and I can vouch for their usefulness. The largest supply I have is the 3K that I use for power tools and a vacuum. I use the 1.5K for my TV/Stereo/PS3. My kitchen only has a 750W in it for a food processer, not that this helps answer you question but if you cant find the info you need this might help put power usage into perspective. Good luck.

Well, I don't use a bread machine, but I don't think you'll have anything but good results from this yeast. It's even great for over-rising like when you make foccacia bread and need really big gaping bubbles. The key, as in all bread making, is how much you choose to knead. That will determine how long the gluten strands are and how chewey or finely textured the bread is.

I've only had good results with this yeast. I'm not an expert and I don't know how much you know, so I'll keep it simple. Make sure your water is 105-115 when adding to yeast with sugar to activate. Let dough rise for longer times before baking. Otherwise good product

Sorry, not sure. But, I can tell you that I use it to grind and use the flour to make home made bread. I am very happy with this product and will be ordering it again.

Certainly. It will read the surrounding temperature -- in air, in water, in bread or wherever else. The one I have is quite accurate. It reads 212 degrees F in boiling distilled water at about a sea level elevation.

I really cannot remember the date but what ever it was, was okay. I transfered the yeast to a airight container so no longer have the package. I have baked several loaves of bread wih this yeast and like not having to proof it. Yeast freezes well if one needs to keep it for a long time. One should use less of this yeast than the plain active yeast. I use a number of Peter Reinharts recipes. Enjoy!

Bread machine recipies work out fine, but I only use the slightly larger whole wheat yeast and no the regular yeasts. Also have to be sure to balance the ph when using rye - hence the bit or orange peel and bit of apple cider vinegar.

Not exactly; however, I have used this yeast many many times in my breadmaker, and I have had fabulous results with it. I simply store it in a glass jar and it lasts just as it should.

Sorry I can't help you. I just put it in the bread machine and let it do all the work.

I suppose you could. I use the Barley Malt Powder to feed yeast in a bread culture.After all, as they say bread is solid beer and beer is liquid bread.
