I already have a recipe

Turn any recipe into a useful dough formula.

Enter the ingredients from an existing recipe. You immediately see the baker's percentages and true hydration, then you can scale the recipe or make it wetter or drier.

Your original recipe stays on the left; the adjusted version appears on the right.

How to read the result

Turn a list of grams into a readable baker's formula

The analyzer reveals the ratios inside an existing recipe, making it easier to compare, correct and scale without losing its balance.

Worked example

Use 500 g flour as the fixed anchor

Enter 500 g flour, 350 g water, 10 g salt and 2 g instant yeast.Result: 70% hydration, 2% salt and 0.4% yeast.

What it means

Flour is always 100%

Every other ingredient is divided by total flour weight. The formula therefore stays comparable when the batch size changes.

Common mistake

Forgetting flour and water in a preferment

When a recipe contains starter or poolish, include its flour and water when judging the dough's true overall hydration.

Use it for

Understand an existing recipe

Useful for gram-based recipes, comparing formulas and checking hydration, salt, fat or sugar.

Not for this

It does not predict fermentation

Ratios describe the formula, but temperature, flour strength and fermentation still require baker judgement.
