Sourdough

Loaf calculator

Scale our loaf up or down, and shift the balance between wholemeal and white. Everything else holds the recipe's ratios — 70% hydration, 2% salt, 20% starter.

Your loaf

True hydration 72.7%

Tip

A 1:1:1 starter is about half flour and half water, so it brings its own water to the party — that's why true hydration reads a little above the 70% in the recipe. Wholemeal also drinks more than white, so if you push it past about 25% expect a slacker dough.
