Dough ball weight

[ERASMO]

    I am going to attempt some sicilian pizzas on Friday in my new 12"x16" lloyd pans.  I am unsure of what thickness factor to figure and needed some help with dough ball weight.

Thanks

ERASMO,

As I noted recently in Reply 1 at http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,12243.msg115759/topicseen.html#msg115759, the range of thickness factors I have seen for the Sicilian style pizza from my examination of recipes is about 0.12-0.13. However, as I noted in that Reply, I have seen a value as high as 0.15.

For your purposes, the amount of dough (DW) you will need for your 12" x 16" pan for a given thickness factor (TF) value can be calculated as follow;

DW = 12" x 18" x TF. The weight is in ounces.
