Adjust Sourdough Recipe Fermentation and Proofing Times Based on Temperature

Adjust sourdough recipe fermentation and proofing times based on temperature.

Usage

adjust_sourdough_time(
  original_time,
  recipe_temp,
  actual_temp,
  q10 = 2,
  temp_unit = c("F", "C")
)

Arguments

original_time

The original time(s) specified in the original recipe.

recipe_temp

The intended ambient temperature in the original recipe.

actual_temp

The actual ambient temperature used.

q10

The \(Q_{10}\) temperature coefficient (describes rate change per 10°C).

temp_unit

"F" for Fahrenheit; "C" for Celsius.

Value

The adjusted sourdough fermentation or proofing time(s).

Details

Adjusts sourdough recipe fermentation and proofing times based on ambient temperature. Suggested times are calculated using the \(Q_{10}\) temperature coefficient, which describes how the rate of fermentation changes with a 10°C temperature difference.
