But if you want to be totally sure, wait for this kind of foam or activity in the cup:. If you made your water hot, try reducing that heat a bit and give it another try. Lord knows nobody wants to waste hours baking something that is dead on arrival. Still have questions about how to activate yeast or anything on this topic? My yeast just has bubbles, This is my 2nd attempt to make butter rolls the first I think I killed the yeast so this time I used the warm tap water it has sat over ten minutes I'll let it sit more but it looks like it needs stirring and there's bubbles Hey Linda, thankfully you don't have to stir yeast for it activate.
By bubbles Or something else? Yeast doesn't bubble Watch this video I made and you'll see it come up to the surface of the water. Kathy the yeast activation doesn't have to have a sweetener so just leave out the Monkfruit. As to the activation, it's probably working and you just aren't realizing it or you just aren't giving it enough time. If the water is warm, just put the yeast in and wait. In some cases you may need to wait 10 or 15 minutes and all it will do is make some white foam that comes to the top of the water.
It won't bubble or fizz or do much fancy. I actually watch mine and as I show in the video that goes with this post, you'll actually see some white thick stuff "roll" up to the surface.
That's all you need to see. I just followed your steps on how to activate yeast and it was awesome!

The correct environment includes moisture, food in the form of sugar or starch , and a warm, nurturing temperature. Before you bake with active dry yeast or fresh yeast , you must test it first to make sure the yeast is alive.
The act of testing to see if yeast is alive is called proofing. Proofing rapid rise or instant yeast is not recommended. How to Proof Yeast. By Allrecipes Editors. If the water is cold, the yeast will stay inactive and if it is too hot, the yeast will die. In a small bowl, add the amount of water called for in your recipe.
Measure out the yeast and add it to the water. Whisk to completely dissolve the yeast. If there is sugar in your recipe, add a pinch to the water. Adding the sugar will give the yeast something to eat and will speed up the process. Wait 10 minutes. If the yeast is alive, it will form a bubbly crust as it eats the sugar and gives off gasses.
Back in my younger marriage days a dear friend gave me a starter. I kept that going for months. Than life happened and I used up all the starter I had. So I am excited to start again. Thank you so much for this. Hi Patty! Happy Baking! Ready to make some Amish Friendship Bread?
