Question About Doubling A Recipe.

[CBZ1982]

I have some recipes I am wanting to double. Do I just double everything just as if I were cooking? Or should I do it through a lye calculator?

It should work out the same by doubling, but to be safe it's best to get in the habit of recalculating every time you make a change to the recipe.

Always run any change in your recipe through a lye calc.

Lye calc is your friend! I would suggest running your recipe through there before doubling because from what I learned, the lye and water will be different.

Good question! I've never even considered that .. yikes!!
I just double and triple my recipes but I should check as well.
Thanks for mentioning this!
