This launch guide maps the topic, the source base and the practical questions. Check the linked official authority before acting on a rule, deadline, price or safety requirement.
What this guide covers
Forty pages cover common recipe amounts and batch sizes, showing baker's percentage, approximate fresh/dry equivalence ranges, inoculation and how room temperature changes time rather than requiring a mythical exact conversion. Separate pages handle enriched dough, rye, cold proofing, pizza, very small yeast amounts and replacing commercial yeast with a 100%-hydration starter, with the flour and water correction shown.
How to use it
Use Fresh, active-dry, instant and sourdough yeast conversions as an index across related cases. The consolidated page establishes the shared method first; narrower pages should appear only when they can add case-specific data rather than repeat a template.
The page keeps the main question, its evidence base and its limits together in one canonical place. That makes it useful as a quick orientation and avoids splitting a broad subject into shallow pages before each narrower answer has enough verified material of its own.

Evidence and provenance
The evidence map below records the primary, official or openly licensed material chosen for this guide. It is deliberately visible so a reader can tell the difference between a rule published by an authority, a measured dataset and an editorial explanation.
Source: computed baker's percentages; ranges cited to yeast manufacturers' technical sheets and published baking-science manuals. · checked 2026-09-09
Source names are preserved even where an authority changes its web address. No figure is added to this launch page unless it is already present in the cited source description or can be computed from a named dataset.
