What is the best poolish %? I use 70% hydration and 40% poolish

@JonCausithONS

The longest time I’ve been following the 30% poolish recipe, though I have experimented with less and even more poolish. Thank you so much for sharing not only the differences in timing when using the pre-fermented yeast for the dough, but also giving a clear ratio of water and flour! (100ml to 145g)

I'm with you I start making pizza at home and vito help a lot with he's videos thank you Vito you the best 💪💪💪💪💪💪

Your video lessons have taught a random person in America to make top notch pizzas any day of the week. No fear...My family and friends are never hungry...Thank you Vito so much.

I've been able to make the nicest pizzas ive had because of your videos Vito. The joy that brings to my family and children when they help is priceless, so thank you vito, sincerely.

Been watching Vito for years. Gleaned a LOT of knowledge. THIS SINGLE video gave me AS much, or more, of pertinent pizza dough information, than all other pizza videos , I’ve ever seen! Take heed!

Super interesting video Vito! I hadn’t realised (after 2 years of making pizzas following mainly your methods) that the poolish ratio worked like this! I think this gives me a lot more options now when I’m short of time on the day of cooking to make more poolish the day before and have less time proving on bake day - thank you!!

Thank you for yet another great lesson. I have been making pizza dough for the last 7 years about every 6 weeks, we have been satisfied and enjoying the results. Watching you reminds me that I simply don’t have enough experience handling the dough, if it’s sticky it causes me stress but makes a good pizza, if it’s less sticky I’m less stressed and it makes a good pizza. I have a lot of work to do. caio

I was insipred to make pizza through a friend. Then I started to follow you and bought the gear for making pizzas. After only making pizzas for a couple of months I'm getting so much compliments on my pizzas and the dough. And that is because of your recipe with poolish Vito! Thank you!

This is such a great video with so much information. I would recommend that people watch this at least twice as there is a lot going. Thank you Vito.

Poolish is one of those things I felt like I didn't know anything about so I didn't even know what questions to ask first. This was so helpful and taught me a lot. Thanks!

Its awesome how I changed my pizza from years thanks to the knowledge you share, and how grateful my near people are now. The results are incredible, I am proud to finally eat the pizza I always dreamed of and be able to make it myself for others. I don't have enough words of gratitude, but I can assure you that you are changing this part of the world and making us capable of improving it in our environment as well. I am grateful that people like you remove the stigma that recipes must be secret and of course we will extend it to our people to always improve! My best wishes to you!

Thank you Vito for teaching me how to make Neapolitan style pizza properly. My pizzas look and taste great because of you. Bari style pizza too! This is another excellent lesson to understand the math to obtain "Poolish %" and why it matters. Puglia (TY)

Maestro Iacopelli, I found your channel by chance because in the era of the pandemic I wanted to learn how to cook bread and pizza for my family instead of shopping outside and save some money doing that. Nowadays, with a better economic situation, my parents, some friends and my in-laws still ask me for a Sunday pizza because everyone enjoys the incredible taste I developed thanks to you. I don't know if you've already changed the way the world eats pizza, but at least, here in a small house in Mexico City, you already did that. Thank you so much 🙏

Thank you Vito, I started making my pizza dough last year through your channel for family pizza parties. I learned something different, every time I make the pizza dough. Keep it going.

I have just discovered your channel in my search for perfect focaccia. I have been baking my own sourdough breads with cultures, poolish or sponge for about 20 years but never made pizza with a poolish. Now you have me hooked and addicted to the baking of the perfect pizza :) Your videos are very interesting. Thank you so much.

That was fantastic Vito! The numbers make it so much easier to calculate on the fly and sets the stage for how much poolish given the weather.

Vito!! I just made 18 pizza doughs thanks to your recipes and advices! I fell in love s-o hard with doing this that I'm listening to your videos everytime I make pizza!

I generally use 20% to 30% poolish. Then I cold ferment the balls a minimum of 24 hours. I often use one dough ball the same day and it's good. But I think the cold fermented dough tastes better and easier to manage. Any dough that doesn't get used by 72 hours is frozen and used later for rolls or baguettes. It's "my" workflow and I've gotten it down pretty good.

So you do 24 hours for Poolish. Then 24 hours mix Poolish with flour/dough (assuming 1 hour out, then 22 hours cold fermentation, and 1 hour to bring it up to room temp)?

Thanks to you I was able to make a lot of pizzas for my friends and family and they love the soft and crunchy crust :) Thank you Vito!

Vito... Probably one of your best videos. Been following you for a few years now. Absolutely love your stuff and it's very inspiring. Have learnt alot. Thank you for everything

Vito is the best pizza chef in the world. I learned everything I know about pizzas from Vito! Thank you

Fantastic very informative video! Living in Scotland I often use around 80% poolish as otherwise I find the final proofing takes ages. Great to hear my theory made sense.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I bought a cheap pizza oven 2 months ago and been making pizzas every weekend, 2 to 6 pizzas. Now i have family and friends telling me i need to start selling them. But i know im not ready. I have a lot more to learn... thanks to your videos i can make good pizza. Planning on upgrading ovens soon😊... thanks again!

Hey Vito, because of your videos, my pizzas became much better over the past year since I've been following your channel...even made a custom gas pizza oven out of weber kettle grill, now I'm in a process of designing my own, thanks for the inspiration!

Thank you for that video. Your videos have changed the way I make my pizza. They are so much better now with your dough recipe. I can work the dough and get a consistent result.

Very useful video Vito!! Thank you for sharing all these information with us!! I am using your 70% next level recipe every time!!

I've been watching your videos for a few years now, and I can say you have come a long ways in producing high quality material. This was an outstanding video. I was under the impression that poolish would affect taste, and hence more poolish would taste different/better. Guess I was wrong, thanks for clearing that up! I did find that poolish made my dough stickier than a direct dough, given the same hydration level. Perhaps you can comment on that?

This is the real deal!!!!! Thank you very much! 100% poolish recipe makes the best dough ive ever made.

Thank you chef! Thank you, Maestro Iacopelli, your videos have helped me to improve my skills a thousandfold! Thank you very much!

I just can’t believe there is a channel existing like yours. Incredible, very much thank you for you teaching us, your master class.

Hi Vito! Thank you for another awesome video! Could you specify a bit regarding what % to use for different room temperatures? In the video you state less pooish for a warm room and more fore a cold room. What is a warm/cold room temperature in celsius to you? What % would you use in what temperature as a start? I live in Sweden, the climate here is pretty cold and dry compared to for example Italy. Thank you again! And also thank you for your master class! I loved it!

I'm following you since covid lockdown as I was looking for something to do, I can't express my appreciation to you, now I can proudly say I make a good pizza. Thank you Vito!!!

My pizzas have really improved since I started using your recipes, especially the poolish one for the household that makes up to 10 pizzas. We even had a pizza party for my daughter's birthday and her friends loved it! I made the dough over 3 days and the children stretched them out and added their own toppings. They were amazing! 🍕😀

@@rsingh2083 You could certainly give it a go, but check the bottom if it's in clear tub or bowl. If there are little creamy strands either visible underneath or at the bottom of it then it will sadly need throwing away. That I think is some kind of mould. That's what happened when I tried a 48hr stiffer style of pre-ferment, I can't remember the name of it unfortunately (memory problems since I had a stroke). I have used the made up dough on the second day after mit being ready though and that was fine. Both times I had it in the fridge. On the second day after it being ready it was less poofy as the dough had run out of food in the flour etc and it was a little more sour but not too much considering... The best person to ask is Vito himself, he is the maestro! 🙂 🍕

Love your content Vito, in the last 2 years my pizza has improved massively and all down to your channel. Fantastic work, keep it up fella

All the energy Vito puts in makes it so much fun, in every video I learn something new. I loved the calculator.

Interesting video! I always just throw in all my poolish, never thought to use less of it! I thought 'more yeast, more flavour', never thought that all I was doing was increasing the speed of fermentation! Thanks for opening my eyes 😊

Hi, My name is Sasho, im originally from Macedonia, but I've been living in uk. Your videos helped me to make perfect pizza for the first time in my life. THANK YOU SO MUCH. GOD BLESS YOU

Thank you as always...your videos are helping me improve my home pizzas and you are very entertaining to listen to. I respect your passion for pizza...I recently retired from teaching and now I am the learner!

I just found your channel, and I'm so glad I did. I bought some 00 Flour today, and after watching your video, I feel confident to give it a try. I'm 100% Italian, both my parents were born in Italy and as recently I've found a third cousin so I'm so delighted and when I go for a visit, I will meet him and his beautiful family. Frankly, I would love to move there, so perhaps I will check out some homes as well. Grazie, Ciao

Are you ever coming to Canada? I have been watching you for years and I make pizza every Friday now for my family and the neighborhood. Pizza is life, my kids love watching the videos with me. Thank you so much for everything you've done

Thank you Vito! You are the pizza legend! Thanks to you, I started the new family pizza era and its amazing!!

Your videos are amazing! Thanks Vito for sharing all of this. With poolish the Pizza always comes out perfect 👍 my most favorite recipe of all 1000 for Neapolitan style. greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

Thanks to your videos, I'am now able to make "the best pizzas of the world", as my son tells me, and I use your poolish recipee. So thank you very much Vito !

Vito, some questions about conserving the poolish in the freezer (in case of changing plans for whatever reason) - Would you put the poolish only in the freezer? - Would you mix the flour with the poolish and then in the freezer? - Would you let the mixture proof and then put in the freezer? - How would you "wake up" the mixture after removing it from the freezer? - Does it have an effect on the taste? - Would it kill the yeast? - Are some yeast freezer resistant?

Bravo Vito, chiarezza e trasparenza sono i caratteri che ti contraddistinguono. Io ti seguo sempre dall' Italia 😊

Thankyou for all the Vlogs on how to prepare Pizza 👍. Watching your Vlogs motivates me to Enter into the Kitchen and COOK for myself either a Breakfast 🥞, Lunch or Dinner which consists of 🌮 Flat Bread from homemade and handmade Dough 😊

Useful and helpful information maestro Vito! Thank you for everything you do. I made your dough recipe with Poolish yesterday for the first time, the double fermentation recipe and was amazed how great the dough came out. So easy to handle, a lot easier to stretch even if I'm not experienced and I cooked for the first time in a little Ooni wood fired oven. And managed not to get any of the pizzas stuck to the stone. Couldn't believe it, but this was definitely due to having a great dough and following your advice and tips. A big Thank You. Grazie mille.

Grazie, Maestro Iacopelli, for another great video! How can you control whether the pizza will be really puffy or very thin? Is the puffiness determined by how much dough you use for each pizza? In other words, if you use 300g of dough compared to 200g but you stretch both to 12 inches, will the 300g dough ball make a puffier pizza?

I made pizza for first time using your recipe for at home oven and wow. I have been trying to make the Neapolitan pizza since I visit Napoli and this is the first time I am closed to getting to the pizza I want to make. TY so much

I can't speak for everyone Vito but this is the type of content I prefer, great video! Very humble and full of information, much rather this than trying to hype us up like you're a teenager on tik tok

Really good explanation, thanks. I agree, you made a lot of people make better pizza. I wish the big pizza chains and some restaurants learnt something from your videos too.

Great explanations, finally understand what matters!

I definitely make better pizza now that I follow your recipes! Thank you for this video! I live in FL and I was always using 100% poolish and my dough would over ferment. This video will definitely guide me to make better pizza!

After installing my wood fired pizza oven I struggled with the dough. Your instructions have greatly improved my products I now do when I have pizza parties. I struggled with Hydration of the dough. Some high some low. I'm always learning. That Vitto.

I always use polish and almost always use double fermentation!! So glad I took the master class!!! Invest in yourself for the love of pizza!!

great informative video! a question, what flower (and W rating) do you use for the poolish? and is it the same flower you add later?

The poolish percentages are a bit inconsistent. The 100% refers to the percent of water in the total dough coming from the poolish (300ml/300ml), but the 20% refers to the percent of water coming from poolish relative to the water added to the poolish (50ml/250ml). Vito, I learned a lot from you and I admire your enthusiasm. Thanks so much.

Thank you once again Vito. Poolish is very much like working with a sourdough starter, minus the yeast of course! I never thought of it that way until I watched your video. Now I more understand how to use Poolish and it will make the timing of my pizzas and bread so much better. The maestro!

LOVE learning with you Vito !

Ahhh, you found more holes in my (/our collective) understanding, Vito! And you plugged the holes! 😆 Molte Grazie! Notes to self: 1. In final product (texture, air, flavor, etc.), 100% poolish = 20% Poolish. 2 . 20% poolish > 100% poolish in TIME needed to ferment before baking. The 20% requires more time in the fermentation stage to rise up to ~doubled size. 100% poolish takes less time before it’s ready to cook. 3. In warmer weather, use 20% Poolish. In colder ambient temps, use 100% Poolish.

Amazing job Vito. Bravo!!! Thank you so much!!!

Hello Vito, I say thank you ! I always learn something through your videos. Pizza is my great passion and thanks to you I have improved a lot. Many greetings from Cologne, Germany

Thanks for all the videos Vito! Question: Can the poolish be frozen for later use?

Hi Vito, love your channel and videos! I have a question though. I always make exactly the amount of poolish that I need to minimize waste. How do I adjust the yeast and honey? For example today I am making dough for two Pizzas(560gr) with 30% poolish (84gr flower and 84gr water). How much yeast do I take for the poolish? Currently I take 1% of the poolish so 1.68gr yeast and 1.68gr honey. Could you please help me?

Thank you I needed this 💪🏼💪🏼

Love your video and content...few questions. Ive nailed the process following your videos but i cant get my dough to be as stretchy to make 12inch size...any tips? Also what temperature do you run a woodfire pizza oven?
