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.
1 teaspoon instant (bread machine) yeast = 1 1/4 teaspoon active dry yeast.1 teaspoon active dry yeast = 3/4 teaspoon instant yeast.1 package instant yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons or 7 grams) = 1 1/4 package active dry yeast (2 4/5 teaspoons or almost 9 grams).Hope this helps!
You can use active dry yeast as a substitute for instant dry yeast. However, you will need to dissolve it in warm water before adding it to your recipe. Another option is using fresh yeast, but be sure to adjust the quantity as it is not as concentrated as dry yeast.
If by dried you mean instant dry active you would use half the amount. So 7.5 grams.
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.

dry yeast does not become active until it is in contact with water fresh yeast is active all of the time
dry yeast does not become active until it is in contact with water fresh yeast is active all of the time
1 (6-ounce) cube or cake of compressed yeast (also know as fresh yeast) = 1 package of active dry yeast 1 package active dry yeast = about 2 1/4 teaspoons = 1/4 ounceTherefore, 1.5 ounces of compressed yeast = 1/16 of an ounce of active dry yeast or 1/4 of the package of active dry yeast.
Just use one packet of whatever you have - all of the packets contain the same amount. Active Dry Yeast, Instant Yeast, Rapid Rise Yeast, Fast Rising Yeast or Bread Machine Yeast are all the same. They just have different names. If your yeast is in a jar - use one level teaspoon.
Yeast is a fungi, bacteria is a moneran.
1 1/2 tsp rapid rise yeast equals 2 tsp of active dry yeast
