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.

Dry yeast is often preferred over compressed or fresh yeast for several reasons. It has a longer shelf life, making it more convenient for storage without the need for refrigeration. Additionally, dry yeast is easier to measure and use, as it can be added directly to dry ingredients or rehydrated as needed. Its consistent performance and reliable fermentation make it a popular choice for both home bakers and commercial operations.
