I'm not sure about this specific bread, but this kind of hard bread seems to last forever, even after opening it.

From my experience, it lasts for at least a year unopened. That is why I like it so much.

I've been buying two bags at a time and using them over a four to six month period without any problem, so I would gauge the shelf life is at least a year, probably the same as regular all purpose flour.

Oh I am sorry I can't give you that date. I transferred mine to food grade containers and have them stored in the freezer. I usually use the bread flour in about 3 months and the others last a bit longer. So far it is still fresh in the freezer.

It depends on if you do the accelerated option or standard. Also depends on what type of bread you are looking to make. When I make a 2 pound honey whole wheat bread, it takes about 3 1/2 hours for the standard option and about 2 hours for the accelerated option. When I use the accelerated option, it ends up being a dense loaf versus when I use the standard option, the loaf is more fluffy. Hope that helps!

I am having the same problem, two loaves, one white one light rye, both collapsed before the bread was done. I am using fresh ingredients, following the recipe exactly and measuring accurately. Since in both cases the bread looks wet and under cooked I will try leaving out some water. I may also cut back a pinch on the yeast as the loaves seem too large for the machine even though I am only making 1.5 pound loaves, not 2 pound.

Expire date on my package is 3/13/16. It is best stored in the pantry and is shelf stable. Top is zip lock type. I make gluten-free bread and use it all the time. It is a great buy.

Mine is in a large canister, have had it for a year, and the bread today was just as good as the bread I made last year when the can was new. Use it in everything cakes, cookies, breads, biscuits, pie crust...every thing last longer.

The Breadtopia company, who sells it, doesn't disclose the number of years that they have used their starter, all they mention is "for years." When you buy it and take care of it, you can also have it for years. Mine is almost a year old and still going strong.

You are welcome--We use it almost every day--I prefer onion rye bread toasted medium brown with a dab of butter--Enjoy-

I made the same mistake - even sealed flour lasts 2 - 3 years MAX. What your are looking for is WHITE FLOUR (one of the many types of flour). It has a shelf life of 30+ years. Long after this administration is dead and buried.

Our local grocer's stocks frozen loaves of Udi's white sandwich bread. I buy 3 or 4 loaves and keep them in the freezer and take one out to thaw in the fridge for the next sandwiches. Their bread keeps for at least a week. I even re-freeze bread crusts for stuffing. Good stuff! The bread is for my spouse, who prefers it toasted.

I am uncertain of the shelf life. We used one and did not open the other for at least two weeks and it was still fresh.

I cannot recall, but we had purchased them for a senior living facility for a bread machine.We made one per week, and they always came out great. We would purchase one large box at a time.so if you could figure out how many boxes come in a large box, that is the number of weeks we used them.I think they lasted for 2-3 months. Great bread!

Releases immediately on all types of bread. I make heavy rye bread and also very dense, seedy wheat breads and do not have a problem with either the finish or the release!

Yes, you leave bread in it's plastic bag. No, it does not affect the expiration date of the bread-just gets it off the counter or whatever. It's just something decorative to store/organize the bread.

Not exactly; however, I have used this yeast many many times in my breadmaker, and I have had fabulous results with it. I simply store it in a glass jar and it lasts just as it should.

I freeze them right away when the case is delivered, and pull a loaf out as needed. This will significantly increase the shelf life. Once a loaf is thawed I suggest keeping it in the fridge; it should stay fresh for about a 7-10 days.
