DyeBatch:Dye Recipe Calculator

Dye fabric at home? Enter your fabric weight and color depth to get dye, salt, soda ash, and water amounts. Recipe calculator for tie-dye and fiber arts.

Stop guessing dye amounts for your fabric projects. DyeBatch calculates the dye powder, salt, soda ash, and water you need based on your fabric weight and desired color depth.

Every dyer knows the frustration: too much dye wastes money, too little leaves fabric pale. Getting the right Depth of Shade percentage and matching auxiliaries requires math that changes with every batch.

HOW IT WORKS

2. DyeBatch calculates dye amount, water volume, salt, and soda ash using standard fiber reactive dye formulas.
3. Get your full recipe instantly — ready to measure and mix. It takes 10 seconds to set up. No account required.
