Selecting the Ideal Saf-instantⓇ Yeast

March 21, 2022
Author Name

First launched nearly 50 years ago, the Saf-instant® range of instant dry yeast continues to revolutionise the lives of bakers around the world.

Saf-instant® products offer a host of benefits including superior fermentation power, optimum baking results and guaranteed consistency in delivering top-quality finished products.

With a range of Saf-instant® yeast available, how can you identify which one would best suit your recipe? Here’s our handy guide based on different bread-making needs.

Saf-instant® Blue
If you’re working with dough containing over 20 percent sugar on flour weight, we recommend Saf-instant® Blue. This is ideal for very sweet dough such as pandesal and roti manis.

Saf-instant® Gold
Saf-instant® Gold is the best option when you’re baking with moderately sweet dough containing 5-20 percent sugar on flour weight, like brioche and filled buns.

Saf-instant® Red
Saf-instant® Red is your instant yeast of choice for dough containing under 5 percent sugar on flour weight, perfect for pizza bases and baguette recipes.

Watch the video below for an overview.
