Ingredient weight reference

Ingredient weights use USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy (April 2018), released as public-domain data under CC0. Values describe its household portions; they are not new measurements or a promise about every flour brand. USDA data-use terms.

Calculator arithmetic

The pan calculator multiplies your inside length, width and height. Its size comparison divides one result by the other. Example inputs are labeled and are not product measurements.

The batch calculator expresses ingredients as percentages of flour. Its total hydration includes preferment flour and water; unknown contributions remain unresolved.

Bulk fermentation chart arithmetic

The bulk fermentation chart and rise time calculator treat rise time as inversely proportional to the growth rates in the two published studies above, relative to a dough at 75°F. The ranges span the studies’ curves, and the rise numbers stop at 82°F. Starter or yeast amount is not scaled, and the acid bacteria’s growth is shown only as a stand-in, not as a souring time. No dough was baked or timed.
