How to use this tool

  1. Enter initial butter layers, three-fold turns, and four-fold turns in the displayed units.
  2. Calculate and use each labeled result for pastry lamination layer count. Compare the result with a measured sample before committing materials.

Try this example

{
  "initial": 1,
  "letter": 3,
  "book": 1
}

Accuracy and scope

Ideal lamination with uninterrupted separate layers; merged seams, butter leakage and shaping are not modeled.
