  1. I personally do 72% with biga. I’ve found that to be what works best for me on my pizza oven but I’m still always playing and tweaking.

  2. 80% if you're feeling brave, 70% if you want a good all rounder, 60% if you want to cook with the kids and 50% if you don't want to digest your pizza easily

  3. 70% is the sweet spot. You’ve made it a favorite because of all the videos. Once registered how to handle it the flavor and softness made it a no brainer (at 72 hours fermentation)

  4. I made the 70% this past weekend. A real game changer how I was making pizza. Some of the best pizzas. Ty Vito!

  5. 80% any time. Because I make it in low temperature. 300 degree.
    And 75% in a high temperature wood stove. ❤️🍕❤️

  6. Why is the dough sticking to my fingers so much? Am I not mixing it for long enough?

  7. @vitoiacopelli I'm always having a problem with 70 and or above hydration with Caputo Pizzeria Blue. I had been thinking that since you are in the US, you use flour that has more gluten content, around the 13% range. When mixing in manitoba that has 13.5% i can reach 70 plus percent hydration, but otherwise the dough has no strength, has no oven spring. Wondering if I'm correct in my assumption of the different flour types here.

  8. 70% all the time. Thanks to Vito! European flour is shockingly higher quality and worth every penny! I opt for 55 pound (25kg) bags and basically pay the same price as domestic flour in five and ten pound bags.
