Bread Begets

Bread Begets is a combination recipe calculator and recipe file. It is for creating, storing, and recalling bread recipes. Enter existing recipes to scale batch size or tweak ingredients. Once recorded, recipe variations can be made and printed. This makes for easy experimentation with a place to keep notes and improve baking skills.

Bread Begets provides tools to create, maintain, and update recipes. It provides a pathway for those learning to bake and for everyone to create new and better breads. There are no failures because we learn by doing. Using “baker’s math” and the weight of ingredients, ratios of ingredients become visible revealing the real values of ingredients. Baking outcomes become predictable and repeatable. New recipes become less random. Create, store, and keep a record of each bread recipe.

Bread Begets is also a tool to scale batch size by desired loaf weight and quantity. Enter existing recipes in percentages or convert them from English or Metric measurements. Once recorded, recipe variations can be made, scaled, and printed. This makes for easy experimentation. Bread Begets includes a place to keep notes for each recipe, a calculator for water temperature for the most consistent results, and a way to separate build steps: chef, starter, leaven, and proof. Just thinking about each new recipe will yield better results over time - better bread for everyone.
