Choose the right tool

Bakers percentages use flour as the reference; solution percentages use total solution mass. Preferment hydration changes both total flour and total water. Pan-volume estimates do not set cooking times or food-safety procedures.

Limitations and common mistakes

  • Top and cylindrical sides only; decoration and waste excluded. Mass-balance or geometry model with the stated convention. No cooking safety, fermentation time, dietary suitability or preservation method is prescribed.
  • Use the displayed unit in every field. Ratios and percentages are different inputs; percent fields use values such as 25 rather than 0.25.
