Work out pizza dough quantity instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.
Dough per base is the circle area times a thickness factor in grams per square centimetre; about 0.10 is a Neapolitan-style thin base and 0.14 a thicker pan crust. Dough scales with the square of the diameter, so a 40 cm pizza needs nearly twice the dough of a 30 cm one rather than a third more.
Dough ball weight
ball = pi x (diameter / 2)^2 x grams per cm2
Flour share
flour = total dough / (1 + hydration + salt + yeast), about total / 1.65 at 65% hydration
