No they are not exactly the same, but very similar.Bread Machine Yeast is added to the dry ingredients, whereas Active Dry Yeast is added to the liquid.You can adding Active Dry Yeast to the warmed liquid (110-degrees or cooler) in the machine instead of adding Bread Machine Yeast on top of the dry ingredients. You however should not use the timed to bake later function if doing this.Also you can grind Active Dry Yeast to a finer powder using a spice mill or mortar and pestle.Also be aware that the weight of one teaspoon of Bread Machine Yeast as it is a finer powder and so more will fit in a teaspoon will be slightly different (+10%) from 1 teaspoon of Active Dry Yeast1 teaspoon Bread Machine Yeast = 3.11 grams1 teaspoon Active Dry Yeast = 2.83 gramsSo add 2 extra pinches of Active Dry yeast to correct the recipe.,______________________________Bread Machine Yeast is yeast that is ground into finer particles and so does not need to be dissolved in water like Active Dry Yeast and so you can add it along with the dry ingredients.Both Bread Machine Yeast and Active Dry Yeastrequire two rises of the dough.There is also Rapid RIse Yeast which has added enzymes and additives so only requires one rise.
Packaging. There is a difference though between dry yeast and rapid rise yeast. Dry or active dry yeast should be proofed (checked to see if still alive) first. Rapid rise yeast can be mixed with the dry ingredients. Follow the package directions.
Instant yeast is another type of dry yeast that was introduced after active dry yeast in the 1970s. It is made using a similar process as active dry yeast, although is dried more quickly. As you can see, this yeast is also milled into finer particles. Because of this, it dissolves faster and activates quickly. But unlike active dry yeast, instant yeast doesn't have to be proofed first; it can be mixed straight into the dry ingredients with the same result. This yeast also gives you two separate rises and it can be used interchangeably with active dry yeast.
