In the past couple of months, I’ve been using a poolish to make our pizzas, and the results have been amazing. I made an online calculator that more or less goes by the recipe by Vito Iacopelli.
It’s a really simple calculator that lets you change 3 variables in order to specify the amounts for the 2-step process.

Thanks for taking the time to do this looking forward to trying it out
Hi Ramin,
Thank you very much, you made my life much simpler with this. I was using an xls calculator until now. Added your calc on my phone homescreen. Thx a lot !!
You sir are a Prince. Grazie!
is the recipe based on fresh yeast? Thanks for a great site 🙌
Hi Andreas,
This recipe is with instant yeast. I, unfortunately, have not had access to fresh yeast here to try it out yet.

Hello, I came across this website. Everything looks great. As for the calculations, is everything in grams ? All it says is weight. Thank you looking forward to your response
Hi Daniel, yes, all grams. Will make it more clear in a future update.
Hello Ramin
I used your Poolish Pizza calculator on your website and I am so satisfied. However, I have a question if I want to make 20 pizzas, the poolish has the same value as 6 pizzas. how should I think there. Have a good day
Hi Andreas, I have used the poolish of 300g flour and 300g water for 12 pizzas. It was very good when I did this. In your case, I would split up the recipe into 10-12 balls each time, and make the poolish for this amount separately. Please experiment and let me know.
Sorry for the late response.
