How much dry yeast do you need for 4 ounces of fresh yeast?

This would be a tricky calculation to make, (and please note these are American measurements.) Compressed yeast comes in 2 oz. cakes, which can be divided equally into 3 parts, with each part equal to one packet of yeast. One packet = 2 1/4 teaspoons. As a rule of thumb, one packet of dry yeast is enough to raise about 4 cups of flour. For anyone interested in working with yeast doughs, Google "yeast conversion" to find a selection of tables that will help you make conversions between dry, compressed, instant and even brewer's yeast.
