Perfect Dosage for Your Gummies
When creating homemade gummies, achieving the perfect weight is essential. Here's a simple guide to help you calculate it:
Gummy Density: On average, gummy mixtures have a density of about 1.4 grams per milliliter. This means your gummies will weigh approximately 1.4 times more than water for the same volume.
Weight Calculation: To determine the weight of your gummy, simply multiply the volume of your mold cavity by
Factor= 1.4.
Example: If this silicone mold holds 3 ml, the weight of each gummy will be
3 ml × 1.4 = 4.2 grams.
This method ensures that your gummies are consistently and accurately weighed, making your production process more efficient and reliable.
