The liquid in which yeast is bred should be pleasant to the touch, no higher than 40 degrees. Why is this important? In a warm environment, yeast is well activated, in a hot one it will die, and in a cold one it simply will not work. To avoid unpleasant surprises, check the yeast before mixing with the rest of the ingredients. Pour a little warm milk into a bowl, stir in the yeast. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and put it in a warm place without drafts for 10-15 minutes. During this time, a foamy yeast cap should appear on the surface of the sponge. If this did not happen, then the fermentation process has not started (the yeast is overdue or spoiled). In this case, it is worth taking other yeast, otherwise baking will not work.

Dry yeast can be replaced with fresh pressed yeast, based on the proportion of 1:3. That is, for 1 gram of dry yeast required by the recipe, you need to take 3 grams of fresh.
