That, but also certain things like yeast don't scale in normal ratios. You gotta use logs and powers and whatever them fancy math boys do.

Oh balls if we're gonna get into the math for how many billions of yeast cells we're pitching and time/population curves and all that mess we're gonna need to take this over to the homebrewing community and talk to someone smarter than me. I just let my rises go until the volume of the loaf has doubled.

...Did you say homebrewing community?

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Sopuli.xyz has a pretty dope homebrewing community. Not sure if they're federated here or not, I keep a separate account there from when I didn't understand how all this worked and thought each instance was basically its own thing
