To keep track of the koji's moisture content, brewers simply weigh the steamed rice or koji, at whatever stage it's at, and calculate its weight ratio:

$$
95-
Weight\:ratio\:(\%)= \frac{ Substrate\:weight - Dry\:rice\:weight}{Dry\:rice\:weight} \times 100\%
95+
\text{Weight ratio (%)}= \frac{ \text{Substrate weight} - \text{Dry rice weight}}{\text{Dry rice weight}} \times 100\%
9696
$$

Note that this is not exactly the same as total water content, since white rice already contains 10-15% moisture, and the koji's metabolic processes also produce water. In reference to soaked and steamed substrate, it is also referred to as the water absorption rate or ratio.
