Silver Gelatin Equatorial Antonio Bachour
Goodmorning Everyone, In Chef Bachours recipe, he uses silver gelatine leaves. I use usually gelatin powder Gold 200Bloom. Is there a formula to calculate how many grammes to use of 200Bloom Gold gelatine compared to Silver gelatin leaves… many thanks for your help and have a lovely day. Steve

Hi Elena
the gelatin calculator webpage which you have shared is not working with me. I enter 6 grams, and the 180bloom in order to convert them to 200 bloom.. but nothing happens. Please advise.
Thanks

Thank you Elena. How much would a leaf of silver gelatine weigh? Many thanks again Steve

Approximately 5 grams of powdered gelatin with 200 Bloom is equivalent to about 4 Silver gelatin sheets. This equivalence is approximate and may vary slightly depending on the brand and the specific use in a recipe, but it is a good starting point for most culinary applications.
Answering your second question, a Silver gelatin sheet generally weighs between 2.5 and 3 grams. This weight may vary slightly depending on the brand and manufacturer, but 2.5-3 grams is the commonly accepted range for Silver gelatin sheets.
We hope this information is helpful.
Best regards.

So in the recipe Chef Bachour is using 5 sheets of Silver gelatine. So that would be approx 12.5 grammes. According to a table I found this would be about 9,6 grammes of Gold 200 Bloom gelatine. Can this be correct? I am so sorry to bother you with this but i have never worked with silver Gelatine. Have a lovely weekend. Steve

Yes, your calculation is correct.
5 leaves of silver gelatin (5 leaves * 2 grams per leaf = 10 grams) are equivalent to 10 grams of gelatin powder with 200 flowers. So you can use 9.5 to 10 grams of gelatin powder to replace the 5 sheets of silver gelatin.
