Hi Veronica, typically the total hydration of dough is calculated based on the way the formula is originally written and does not account for additional water that's added. If you find that you need to add more liquid during mixing, you're welcome to weight it out and add it to the original amount of water and re-calculate the total hydration. Or, if you find you consistently need to add more water to a given recipe, you might consider adjusting the original recipe so that it includes this additional water from the outset (to avoid doing your calculations twice).
