Croissants don’t rise enough when I use instant yeast instead of fresh.

I’m fairly new to making croissants and I sometimes substitute fresh yeast for instant. The recipe calls for 20g of fresh yeast and I use 1tbsp of instant for every 20g of fresh yeast. When I use fresh yeast the croissants turn out fine but when I use instant yeast, they are much more dense, almost like bread. Should I be using more instant yeast?
