- Home bakers working with sourdough starter
- Worth noticing
- Its example shows 77.3% true hydration after counting starter flour and water, rather than reporting only the selected 75%.
Field notes
The controls cover starter hydration and whole-grain flour as well as the usual dough percentages. An example recipe gives both ounce and gram weights, and the page explains how a 100%-hydration starter contributes equal weights of flour and water. The linked calculator set includes a schedule tool and a yeast-to-sourdough converter; the page also says settings are remembered in the browser.
