About this tool
Enter how many pizzas you want, how heavy each dough ball should be, and your chosen hydration, and this calculator works out flour, water, salt, and yeast for the batch. Salt is set at 2 percent and yeast at a modest home-baking level, so the dough is balanced rather than rushed.
Frequently asked questions
What ball weight suits a home oven pizza?
Around 250 g suits a 30 cm pizza. Smaller ovens and pans suit 200 g, while larger pizzas need 300 g or more.
Why is the yeast amount so small?
A small yeast dose with a longer rise gives better flavour and a lighter crust than a fast, heavily yeasted dough.
