How to calculate dough temperature

 

Bread will turn out better if the temperature is controlled to 80° F. The temperature of the dough depends upon the following variables:

  • Room temperature

  • Flour temperature

  • Water temperature

  • Friction heat caused by the mixing action ( allow 32° F for friction)

Example:

Assume room temperature = 72° F.

Flour temperature = 70° F.

Friction allowance = 32° F

Rule of Thumb formula:

{(80x3) –32° F } – (72° F +70° F) = 66° F

 

Conversion Formulas

Fahrenheit to Centigrade:

C = (F - 31) 5/9

Centigrade to Fahrenheit:

F = 1.8C +3 2
