## How to Calculate Flour Blend Protein

### Formula

**Blend Protein % = (Bread Flour g x 0.127 + AP Flour g x 0.105) / Total Flour g x 100**

### Protein Levels by Flour Type

- **Cake flour**: 7-8%
- **Pastry flour**: 8-9%
- **All-purpose flour**: 10-12%
- **Bread flour**: 12-13%
- **High-gluten flour**: 13-14%

### Why Protein Matters

Higher protein creates more gluten, which provides structure and chew. Pizza and bagels need 12-14%, while cakes need 7-9% for tenderness.

Lösungsbeispiel

Blend 300 g bread flour with 200 g all-purpose flour.

  1. Bread flour protein: 300 x 0.127 = 38.1 g.
  2. AP flour protein: 200 x 0.105 = 21.0 g.
  3. Total protein: 38.1 + 21.0 = 59.1 g.
  4. Total flour: 300 + 200 = 500 g.
  5. Blend protein = 59.1 / 500 x 100 = 11.8%.
