Hi Nhật Nguyễn.
If you want to make a double recipe, you’ll need to adjust the dimensions of the dough and butter proportionally to maintain the same ratios.
Double Recipe Calculation:
▪️ Base dough (1350 g): If you double the quantity, it will be 2700 g of dough.
▪️ Dough rectangle:The current rectangle is 50 x 30 cm, with an area of 1500 cm². Doubling the recipe means doubling the area, which gives 3000 cm².
To maintain similar proportions:
▪️New size: ~71 x 42 cm.
(You can slightly adjust the dimensions, but they should maintain a 5:3 ratio).
Butter square:
The original square is 30 x 30 cm, with an area of 900 cm². Doubling this would give an area of 1800 cm², resulting in a square of ~42 x 42 cm.
Final Answer:
▪️New dough rectangle size: 71 x 42 cm.
▪️New butter square size: 42 x 42 cm.
Make sure to properly refrigerate the dough and butter to ensure they w
ork well during laminating.
Best regards.

Hi
Please can you give us exact answer on the size of dough square and butter
In reply to my question last week you gave me for double the recipe (2700gr) the dough rectangle square must be 71/50cm but here is 71/42cm same for butter you gave me 47×50
Here this what reply to me 😊
Size of the dough:
The 2700 g of dough should be stretched to double the original area:
50 x 30 cm × 2 = 70 x 50 cm
– Size of the butter:
The butter should still cover 2/3 of the dough. For a dough size of 70 x 50 cm:
≈ 46.7 cm
The butter block should be approximately 47 x 50 cm.
Please can you give is correct size of butter square and dough square for double recipe 2700gr !
Thank tou very much 😊

Hi ABSky Sports Management Agency
Apologies if I confused the measurements while recalculating.
The correct measurements for a double recipe are:
Dough: 71 x 42 cm
Butter: 42 x 42 cm
In the previous measurements, I wasn’t calculating based on 2/3.
I regret the mistake, but the measurements in this message are accurate.
Best regards.
