Does not work

This app won’t work on my iPad. It says I need to add ingredients when I have already added my ingredients and won’t calculate. It also doesn’t treat bakers percentages in the correct way as flour is supposed too be 100% and other ingredient are a percentage of this.

easy to use and clear

nice app, easy to use, clear and intuitive
would like to see updates please with stuff like:

-ability to duplicate recipes
-backup to iCloud

advanced options such as multi step pre-ferment builds would be great!

Great

This works perfectly for me! It makes it so easy to get making bread and pizza dough! If I’m making loaves I need a certain amount of dough but if I’m making rolls with the same formula the amount of dough needed changes, this app makes that kind of thing easy. I would recommend adding 40 or 50 grams to your planned final weight to make up for losses of dough in the process so you have what you need for the bread you want to make.

Only does whole numbers

The interface is simple and nice. I’d use this app and give it a 5 for its intended purpose if it were capable of using decimals instead of only whole numbers.

There are recipes that call for 0.5% of yeast or even less. I never thought I’d ever buy a food scale that weighed in micrograms but baking can do that to ya lol.

But yeah as you can imagine the app is unusable if 0.5g gets rounded down to ZERO and anything a bit above that gets rounded up to 1g which might be double the yeast you’d need depending on recipe and dough ball size.

Giving it 3 stars for now since it would be a simple fix and I could easily see myself using it if it gets implemented.

Exactly what I was looking for!

Very useful app
