Instructions
Your first formula, step by step.
Start with the dough you want to make. Let the calculator handle the ingredient weights.
How to use Dough Maker
- Pick the dough size you want to make. 🍕
- Adjust hydration, salt, yeast, and flour mix to match your style. 💧
- Check the gram outputs. On iOS, save the formula to your recipe library. ✅
- Keep Bake mode nearby while you mix, ferment, divide, and bake. 👨🍳
What baker’s percentages mean
Baker’s percentages treat flour as the 100 percent baseline. Every other ingredient is expressed as a percentage of the total flour weight.
Changing the batch size keeps the ratios the same. Hydration is the water weight divided by flour weight, multiplied by 100.
500 g flour (100%) + 325 g water (65%) + 10 g salt (2%) + 1 g yeast (0.2%) = 836 g dough.
Total dough weight includes every ingredient. If you enter 500 g as your dough weight, that is the whole batch, not just the flour.
Make it repeatable
Change one ingredient ratio at a time when experimenting. On iOS, save a formula to your library and duplicate it before trying a variation. Open Bake mode for an ingredient reference while you mix.
Pro adds controls for preferments, flour blends, and precision. Start with a straightforward formula, then add those details as you need them.
