Your evening.
Your pizza dough.

How many pizzas are you making? Choose dough-ball weight and baker’s percentages. The calculator works out the ingredients.

Every percentage is relative to flour. Use the yeast percentage from your recipe: it depends on fermentation time and temperature.

Your ingredients.

4 × 250 g

Flour

Quantities are rounded. Use a precision scale for small yeast quantities.

THE PRINCIPLE

Flour is the starting point.

At 65% hydration, every 100 g of flour needs 65 g of water. Salt, yeast and oil are also expressed relative to flour. The calculator divides your desired total dough weight across all ingredients.

How long should the dough rise?

Follow the schedule in a suitable recipe. This calculator scales a direct dough without a preferment; you choose the fermentation schedule and yeast quantity.
