My Dough Toolkit
For sourdough and yeast baking. Build, scale, and manage dough recipes with confidence.
Welcome
Quick Start
- Start with ① Choose a Bake to select what you want to make, the quantity, and the general process style.
- Move to ② Choose Flour & Make Dough to choose your flours, review the pre-filled dough settings, and adjust the recipe if needed.
- Use ③ Plan the Bake to set the finish time, review the batch details, and generate the production timeline backward from that target.
- Use ④ Adjust for Dough Temp after mixing when you want to fine-tune fermentation timing based on the real dough temperature.
- Save, search, review, cost, convert, and print later using the recipe, report, costing, and conversion pages.
What it does
My Dough Toolkit helps you move from an idea to a workable bake plan in one place. You can choose the product you want to make, build the dough with flour, hydration, salt, oil, and leavening, and then generate a timeline that matches the batch and process style. The app also lets you check dough temperature, adjust fermentation timing, resize recipes, save and reload formulas, view recipe details, estimate cost and profit, convert common baking values, and keep your own flour records for future use.
Disclaimer
Every dough mix and bake has many variables, including flour characteristics, starter strength, dough temperature, handling, proofing, oven behavior, and environmental conditions. This toolkit is designed as a practical guide, but results cannot be guaranteed to be 100% exact every time. Always use your own judgment and adjust as needed for your ingredients, process, and baking conditions.
Step by Step
Recommended Workflow
- ① Choose a Bake — choose the product, style or size, process style, quantity, and any custom dough-per-piece override.
- ② Choose Flour & Make Dough — choose your country first, then either use Flour Guidance or select flours manually, review the pre-filled dough settings, adjust them if needed, and save the recipe if you want.
- ③ Plan the Bake — set the time you want the bake to finish, then generate the backward-planned timeline that matches the selected product and process.
- ④ Adjust for Dough Temp — use this after mixing to compare the real dough temperature with your reference and refine fermentation timing if needed.
- ⑤ Scale Your Dough — resize the formula when you want a different final dough weight or number of pieces.
- ⑥ Recipe Search and ⑦ Recipe Details — review, reload, print, export, or delete saved recipes.
- ⑧ Costs & Profit, ⑨ Conversions, and ⑩ Log Your Flour are support pages you can use whenever needed.
① Choose a Bake
Start here. Choose the product type you want to make, then set the style or size, process style, quantity, and any custom dough-per-piece override if needed.
You can also browse visually using the image carousel. Clicking a product image loads that bake into the page so you can continue more quickly.
This page calculates the suggested dough per piece, total dough needed, flour target, and product notes. When ready, use Send flour target to Choose Flour & Make Dough to carry the suggested flour target into the next page.
② Choose Flour & Make Dough
Choose your country first, then select up to three flours manually or use Flour Guidance. Depending on the selected input mode, you can enter your flour blend in grams or percentages, and the panel shows what remains to be allocated.
The app pre-fills hydration, salt, oil, and leavening values and calculates the formula live. You can accept those values or change them manually and the dough quantities will recalculate automatically.
This page also includes Flour Guidance. After choosing the country filter, you can request recommended flours for the selected bake, see the top ranked suggestions with fit labels, search by flour brand, or select flours manually from the scrollable Flour Blend panel.
③ Plan the Bake
Use this page to set the date and time you want the bake to finish. The profile should match the product and process style, including same-day or overnight logic where relevant.
The app calculates backward from the target finish time to build the timeline. Depending on the bake type, it may include mixing, rest, folds, bulk fermentation, dividing, shaping, refrigeration, proofing, preheating, and baking.
This is the main production-planning page and should be used after the dough formula has been confirmed.
④ Adjust for Dough Temp
Use this after mixing, when you know the actual dough temperature. Enter the reference temperature and expected time, then compare them with the real dough temperature for the current batch.
This page helps fine-tune fermentation timing when the dough is warmer or cooler than planned, so the final schedule can be adjusted more accurately.
⑤ Scale Your Dough
Resize the finished formula by changing the total dough weight, number of pieces, or dough per piece without rebuilding the recipe from scratch.
Use this page whenever you want the same formula in a different batch size.
⑥ Recipe Search and ⑦ Recipe Details
Use Recipe Search to find saved recipes, reload them into Choose Flour & Make Dough, and manage recipe records more easily.
Use Recipe Details for a cleaner view of the current recipe when you want to review it clearly or prepare it for printing.
⑧ Costs & Profit
Estimate ingredient cost, dough cost, piece cost, and margin for the current formula. This page is especially useful if you are baking for sale and want better pricing control.
⑨ Conversions and ⑩ Log Your Flour
Use Conversions for quick helper calculations such as baking conversions and other common value checks.
Use Log Your Flour to add your own flour entries when a flour is not already in the database. Custom flours added there become available in Choose Flour & Make Dough.
