ALTITUDE CHART
The altitude chart is not a recipe but a guide to use to change key ingredients in a recipe if it
doesn’t work as printed.
All recipes were developed at sea level - approximately.Adjustments may be necessary if your
altitude is 2000 feet or higher.
Try the recipe as printed first unless you have experimented on other recipes and have an idea
of what to change.
REMEMBER only change one ingredient in the recipe at a time. Then use this as a guide to
change other recipes.
