What is Bread Ratio?

The Bread Ratio is a measure of the proportion of flour to water in a bread recipe. It is calculated by dividing the ounces of flour by the ounces of water. This ratio is important for determining the dough's consistency and hydration, which affects the texture and rise of the bread.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ BRR = \frac{20}{10} = 2 \]

The Bread Ratio is 2:1 (flour:water).

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ BRR = \frac{15}{10} = 1.5 \]

The Bread Ratio is 1.5:1 (flour:water).
