Anstel I Rise
Since 2020
Needed to feed my family bread during COVID-19 quarantine, but ran out of commercial yeast.
Characteristics
It consistently provides a nice rise on 100% white whole wheat all purpose flour. If I leave it in the fridge for several days, it produces a loaf with small, even holes. If I leave it at room temperature (20 C) for several hours, it produces different size holes. Some holes are fairly large.
