Example: A basic recipe contains 1 kg of solids and 0,6 kg of liquid:
This gives AR =
0,6 kgs x 100
= 60%
1 kg
If for instance it is required to use the maximum capacity of the mixer, the calculated AR = 60% is used
for determining the amount of solids and liquid in the dough:
If a 30 L mixer is used, and a dough with AR = 60% is to be kneaded, the maximum capacity is = 22 kg.
Now the weight of solids in this dough is calculated:
Solids =
Max. capacity x100 = 22 kg x 100 =
13,75 kg
AR + 100 60 + 100
Weight of liquid =
22 kg - 13,75 kg
= 8,25 kg
