Are the inputs based on raw or cooked millet?

The grain input is dry (raw) millet. Cooked batch weight is modeled using hydration/yield assumptions to support portion logging.

Why do calories per serving change when I switch recipe style?

Different styles retain different amounts of water and include different add-in defaults, which changes density and serving-level output.

Can I use custom vegetable composition inputs?

Yes. Preset profiles are convenience estimates, and custom mode lets you enter your own per-100g values for better batch matching.

Why does the tool show assumptions instead of one fixed number?

Published values vary by grain source, processing, and preparation context. The tool keeps assumptions explicit for transparent logging.

Is this tool meant for personal tracking only?

Yes. It is an informational nutrition logging utility for personal awareness and record-keeping.

Can I share a prefilled recipe setup?

Yes. The page state is encoded in the URL so the same setup can be reopened or shared.

How This Estimate Is Calculated

This tool starts with dry millet composition, adds selected vegetable and fat inputs, then splits batch totals by servings. Hydration assumptions affect cooked batch weight and per-serving density.

Why Values Can Vary

Published values differ by source material, polishing level, and preparation style. This page presents a structured estimate with explicit assumptions rather than one absolute number.

Sources and Assumptions

Hydration and yield behavior use practical cooking references. Values are presented as transparent journaling estimates and may vary with ingredients and moisture retention.
