The story behind

Built by someone who actually bakes pizza.

PizzaPlan comes from Forstinning near Munich, Germany - written by Christoph Bimmer, home pizza baker with a wood-fired oven in the garden. The app calculates the way a good pizzaiolo does in their head: baker's percentages, real yeast curve by fermentation time, 8 flour profiles. No account, no tracking, fully offline.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about pizza dough

What hydration is ideal for beginner pizza dough?
65% hydration is ideal for beginners - easy to shape and still juicy. With PizzaPlan, just enter your desired hydration and all quantities are calculated automatically.
Which flour is best for pizza dough?
Tipo 00 has the finest grind and creates an elastic, stretchy texture. For more flavour, Tipo 0 or wheat flour type 550 also works well. PizzaPlan supports 8 flour types with individual profiles.
How long should pizza dough rest?
Cold fermentation in the fridge for 24-72 hours develops significantly more flavour than short room-temperature proofing. PizzaPlan automatically calculates the optimal yeast amount for any fermentation time.
How much yeast do I need for pizza dough?
For long fermentation, 0.1-0.5 g of dry yeast per kilogram of flour is enough. Less yeast means more flavour and better digestibility. PizzaPlan calculates the exact amount based on temperature and fermentation time.
What is the difference between poolish and biga?
Poolish is a liquid pre-ferment (1:1 flour/water), biga is a stiff pre-ferment with less water. Both improve flavour, aroma, and digestibility. Both are included in PizzaPlan Pro.
Can I use dry yeast instead of fresh yeast?
Yes - fresh yeast has roughly three times the leavening power of dry yeast, so adjust accordingly. PizzaPlan automatically converts between yeast types.
Why is my pizza dough so sticky?
Work with slightly wet hands instead of adding more flour - extra flour makes dough dry and tough. At high hydration (70%+), some stickiness is normal and a sign of good dough quality.
How hot should the oven be for pizza?
As hot as possible - ideally with a pizza stone preheated for at least 45-60 minutes at maximum temperature. Neapolitan pizza needs 450-500°C, sheet pan pizza works from 220°C.
Can I also calculate sweet yeast doughs with PizzaPlan?
Yes! PizzaPlan calculates 9 sweet yeast doughs - from Germknödel to Buchteln and Hefezopf (free) plus Krapfen, Cinnamon Rolls, Brioche and more (Pro). Sugar, butter, eggs and liquid are calculated automatically. Optional cold fermentation in the fridge is also supported.
