OTHER FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Q: Does BreadStorm support decimal pounds? Pounds and ounces?
A : No, currently BreadStorm supports only g and kg.

Q: Will I get my moneys worth from the app?
A: Yes, if you regularly develop new formulas and/or tweak existing ones; make frequent use of advanced baking methods such as pre-ferments, soakers, and builds; or manage a large number of formulas.

Q: I dont know yet how to use bakers %, but I do weigh my bread-baking ingredients in g (or kg). Can I use BreadStorm?
A: Yes. To use BreadStorm, enter bread formulas into the app using weights. BreadStorm will calculate bakers percentages for you. Many BreadStormers find this a fun and low-pressure way to learn bakers % on their own.
