Shelf life is extremely low for fresh yeast, and strength can vary tremendously. - Caputo then created the perfect solution after studying pizza makers and pastry chef needs - No chemicals, long shelf life, - Caputo Yeast has a certain fermentative power, has a sure and measurable force, pushes over time and does not collapse. Moreover, it dies completely at 58 ° C unlike chemical yeasts which, apart from collapsing if left to ferment too much, do not die during cooking, causing digestion fatigue. Caputo Yeast is also naturally gluten-free and therefore suitable for all preparations that do not. - In other words we now have an Italian yeast, from a selected stock, with prolonged fermentative power that pushes over time and is suitable for long leavening. Also fed with natural Italian molasses that also gives a pleasant taste to the yeast itself. Yeast is dry and active, it must be added directly to the flour and in terms of savings it must be specified that the dose corresponds to ½ - ⅓ of that of fresh yeast. - Active Dry Yeast perfect in combination with Caputo 00 Flour - Made in Italy ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07QF4T64V | | Allergen Information | Gluten Free | | Best Sellers Rank | #7,671 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #5 in Active Dry Yeasts | | Brand | Antimo Caputo | | Brand Name | Antimo Caputo | | Coin Variety 1 | Flour,Dry Yeast | | Color | white | | Container Type | Canister | | Cuisine | Italian | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 8,249 Reviews | | Diet Type | Gluten Free | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08014601100016 | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Package Weight | 0.13 Kilograms | | Item Weight | 0.1 Grams | | Leavening Agent Type | Active Dry Yeast | | Manufacturer | CAPUTO | | Model Number | SCH004_unit | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Part Number | SCH004 | | Size | 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1) | | Unit Count | 100 Grams | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Antimo Caputo - **Item Package Quantity:** 1 - **Item Weight:** 0.1 Grams - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Unit Count:** 100 Grams ## Images ![Lievito Active Dry Yeast 1.1 LB Pack Large - 17.63 Oz - Made in Italy - Perfect with 00 Flour for Bread, Pizza, and Pastries - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/812CX2X2KVL.jpg) ![Lievito Active Dry Yeast 1.1 LB Pack Large - 17.63 Oz - Made in Italy - Perfect with 00 Flour for Bread, Pizza, and Pastries - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71t2h288MSL.jpg) ![Lievito Active Dry Yeast 1.1 LB Pack Large - 17.63 Oz - Made in Italy - Perfect with 00 Flour for Bread, Pizza, and Pastries - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81XflWDLHxL.jpg) ![Lievito Active Dry Yeast 1.1 LB Pack Large - 17.63 Oz - Made in Italy - Perfect with 00 Flour for Bread, Pizza, and Pastries - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/714PpqftlYL.jpg) ![Lievito Active Dry Yeast 1.1 LB Pack Large - 17.63 Oz - Made in Italy - Perfect with 00 Flour for Bread, Pizza, and Pastries - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81y5cXdDH8L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it list an expiration date?** A: There is a stamp on the bottom. The one I got expires in 2021. I have only tried this product once and so far the results were not super, but there are really no instructions and I may have not used enough. **Q: I have celiac disease and use gf caputo flour to make pizza. does anyone use this yeast to make pizza with gf caputo flour?** A: Yes I do every time **Q: Is this more like active dry yeast or instant yeast?** A: It is in fact instant yeast - at least as that is defined in Europe, the UK and Australia, which is yeast that can be added directly to dry ingredients without pre-activating in water. Instructions in both English and Italian both say to mix it into the flour. **Q: Pizza making class asks for beer yeast. Would this be the same?** A: “Beer yeast” is very non-specific. If you look up your local home brew supplier, they’ll probably have 10+ options. Not sure exactly what properties your instructor would be looking for. This Caputo yeast is excellent for making pizza, particularly if you are attempting a Neapolitan style, and will be allowing the dough to cold ferment in your fridge for a few days to develop better flavor. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by S***Z on May 6, 2024* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by E***L on March 5, 2026* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by J***4 on June 19, 2023* ## Frequently Bought Together - Antimo Caputo Lievito Active Dry Yeast 3.5 Ounce Can - Made in Italy - Perfect with 00 Flour - Antimo Caputo Pizzeria 00 Flour (Blue) 2.2 LB - Pack of 2 (Total 4.4 LBS) - Antimo Caputo Chefs Flour - Italian Double Zero 00 - Soft Wheat for Pizza Dough, Bread, & Pasta, 2.2 Lb (Pack of 2) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/148887315-lievito-active-dry-yeast-1-1-lb-pack-large-17](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/148887315-lievito-active-dry-yeast-1-1-lb-pack-large-17) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
