How do I use fresh yeast?

Does fresh yeast take longer to rise?
Fresh yeast and instant yeast contain more living yeast cells, so they produce more carbon dioxide than active dry yeast, resulting in a bigger, faster rise.
How do I know if my fresh yeast is still active?
To test fresh yeast, combine the amount of yeast the recipe calls for with warm water (no hotter than one hundred degrees Fahrenheit) and sugar. Wait about ten minutes. By this point, the yeast mixture should be foamy and give off a bready aroma. If it does not, the yeast has gone bad.
What happens if I put too much yeast in my pizza dough?
Too much yeast could cause the dough to go flat by releasing gas before the flour is ready to expand. If you let the dough rise too long, it will start having a yeast or beer smell and taste and ultimately deflate or rise poorly in the oven and have a light crust.
