Sadly, not really. Water is easy. It's about 240 grams per cup. I'd
use 3 teaspoons of the 19 gram ingredients, 2 of the 14 gram ingredients.

However, flour is another matter altogether. In some tests run in
different baking groups we found that "a cup of flour" could vary by as
much as 50% from one person to another. How the flour is packed into
the cup is what makes the difference. Water doesn't pack. Granulated
solids do.

There are about 30 grams per ounce of weight. To ounce of volume is
another matter. Check your flour sack, they should have some sort of
information on the side with the nutritional information that will say
something like, "One serving = 1/4 cup (30 grams)" And from there, you
can do the math. (Note, those were numbers pulled out of... ahhh... the
air for demonstration purposes. Check your sack.)

If your bread is too wet, add flour; if its too dry, add water.

Good luck,
Mike
