Bakery theory WAP OF FLOUR

WAP: WATER ABSORBATION POWER (IN FLOUR).

GENERALLY FLOUR ABSORBS 50% OF WATER TO ITS WEIGHT.

IN BULK BAKING,RISK OF ADDING EXTRA WATER CANNOT BE TAKEN, THAT IS WHY FLOUR IS SENT TO LABORATORY TO CHECK THEIR ABSORBATION POWER.
EXAMPLE:28 GM OF REFINED FLOUR ABSORBS 14 ML OF WATER.
