I do not get a good dough rise with this yeast with or without warm water. Am I doing something wrong or does this yeast needs more amount added?

Hi! Since this is instant yeast, you do not need to add water to activate it. You can simply add it straight to the dough and it should do its job. You could experiment with more amounts of the yeast to see if that helps.

It says distributed by location Arizona. Where is the yeast actually made?

All it says in the back Distributed in Phoenix AZ. Doesn't say where the yeast is from.

How many teaspoons per ounce does this yield?

There are approximately 7 teaspoons per ounce.

Effective yeast with great tasting results

Made a perfect loaf with this product. Highly recommend it. I used the quick course setting to make a delicious white bread recipe using my bread maker which had been stored away for months. Nice not to have to heat the oven during this heatwave.

Best bread yeast ever

I just made bread with the scratch gold yeast and it works great. Much better than my usual bread yeast. My bread raised higher and tasted much better. My new supplier.
