food-bev Fresh to powder ratio?

Hello everyone,
 
I want to make a sauce out of some peppers I have, but I have no idea how many to use since the recipe requires 2 Tbs. of powder.  I have a dehydrator and could make powder, but I don't want to over estimate how much I have and end up not being able to make a full batch.
 
Is there some general conversion between fresh and powder?  A rough estimate would be fine.
 
You lose 90% in dehydration. Weigh out a tsp of powder and multiply by 10
That will give you a good idea where to start playing
