About BenchProof - Baker's Percentage Calculator
BenchProof calculates baker's percentages from bread recipes on 226+ popular recipe sites, then lets you scale to any batch size you need.
Baker's percentages are how professional bakers measure recipes: every ingredient as a percentage of total flour. Once you have the percentages, scaling becomes simple math. BenchProof does both automatically.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Visit a supported recipe site (King Arthur, Perfect Loaf, etc.)
2. Click the floating BenchProof button that appears
3. See instant baker's percentages, hydration %, and salt %
4. Scale to your target size
5. Print, copy, or save
FIVE WAYS TO SCALE
- Total dough weight (e.g., "I want 1,500g of dough")
- Total flour weight (e.g., "I have 500g of flour")
- Number of loaves x loaf size (e.g., "3 loaves at 750g each")
- Available starter (e.g., "I have 200g of levain ready")
- Specific ingredient (e.g., "Scale so salt = 15g")
PREFERMENT DETECTION
Automatically identifies levain, poolish, biga, and pâte fermentée. Shows preferment and final dough as separate stages with their own percentages.
