Cooking Calculators

Recipe scaling, dough and brine ratios, rice and coffee amounts, worked out in grams, ounces and cups.

Cooking is easier to repeat when you work in ratios. A baker describes dough by hydration, the weight of water as a percentage of the weight of flour, and the bread calculator scales a recipe to a target dough weight or measures the hydration of your dough and your starter. The pizza dough calculator turns the number and size of pizzas into weights of flour, water, yeast, salt, sugar and oil.

For the rest of the kitchen, use the rice calculator to decide how much dry rice to cook for a number of people and the rice to water calculator for the water that rice needs. The brine calculator gives the weight of salt for a brine, the coffee to water ratio calculator the matching coffee and water weights for your brewing method, and the recipe scaler multiplies a pasted ingredient list for a new number of servings. Weighing ingredients is more precise than measuring by volume, and these tools give weights wherever it matters.
