Also, please remember that the ice counts as part of the
water for the dough.

PROCEDURE: Determining Machine Friction

1. Prepare a batch of dough, first measuring the room Example:
temperature, flour temperature, and water temperature. Room temperature = 72°F
Add these three figures. Flour temperature = 65°F
Water temperature = 75°F
2. Measure the temperature of the dough as it comes Dough temperature = 77°F
from the mixer. Multiply this figure by 3.
1. 72 + 65 + 75 = 212
3. Subtract the result of step 1 from the result of step 2. 2. 77 × 3 = 231
This is the machine friction. 3. 231 – 212 = 19
Machine friction = 19°F
4. Use this factor when calculating the water temperature
required for subsequent batches of this particular
dough, as explained on page 123.
