FAQ

Baker's percentage?

Flour weight is the 100% baseline; other ingredients are shown as a share of the flour, which makes scaling easy.

How is it different from baking-conversion?

baking-conversion handles unit conversion; this one handles recipe ratios.

Does whole wheat need more water?

Whole wheat absorbs more water, so its water % is higher (about 70%).

Precision?

Flour and water in whole grams, yeast to 1 decimal.
