Storing Yeast

Post by Goofy »

I just got in 25 packs of Turbo 48 (foil packs) and was wondering how you guys would store it. I'm not talking security or anything just where would store it to keep it as fresh as possible. Would in the fridge work?

Toss it in your freezer if you want....sub zero temps won't hurt yeast.

Yeast

Hi Guys: I put mine in a Rubbermaid container and leave it in the bottom of the "fridge. I thought freezing would kill yeast, no? ...BJJB
Since I read of the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

My older sister buys bakers yeast in 4ltr containers...she's kept it in the freezer as long as I can remember.
