Re: Noobie dough recipe…..

That 7 grams of yeast amount is basically the standard packaged amounts.  I think they choose that for people too keep it simple, but also because most pizza novices try and make a 3-4 hour dough and that amount of yeast almost always assures the dough will double in a short time.  

If you’re using a good quality yeast then definitely don’t need that much even if you’re doing a same day RT dough.  Agree with Craig’s comments.
