Calculation of the addition of liquid
The required addition of liquid of a dough can be calculated with the following formula:
Example recipe for the calculation of the quantity of the addition of liquid
Production of rolls, 20 times 1.800 kg each (30 pieces of 0.060 kg).
Required dough size: 20 x 1.800 kg = 36.000 kg
