Scale the full quantity.
Mixed and Unicode fractions, range endpoints, and quantities after “plus” are handled together. Units are kept as written.
THE RECIPE WORKBENCH
Use it as a recipe converter, recipe scaler or recipe multiplier: enter the original and new servings, paste the ingredients and get every scaled amount to review.
Quantities in the method are checked too. Prefer half the recipe? Try the half recipe calculator.

02 / YOUR REVIEW
Your original and scaled amounts will appear here. Edit anything that needs a human decision, then confirm each line.
These never get multiplied automatically.
Your recipe changed. Scale & review again to prepare a fresh export.
Suggestions match amount, unit and a nearby ingredient name. They are not proof that a step is correct.
Confirm only after checking quantities, notes, and how you’ll cook it.
A CLEARER WAY TO SCALE
Mixed and Unicode fractions, range endpoints, and quantities after “plus” are handled together. Units are kept as written.
Two 14-ounce cans become three cans when you scale by 1.5. The 14-ounce package size stays the same. Other parenthetical numbers are flagged.
Unknown notation is left unchanged with a note. Adjust the results yourself and export a record of the original, your edits, and the review notes.
QUESTIONS ABOUT SCALING
Enter the original servings and the new servings. The tool divides one by the other to get a scale factor and applies it to each ingredient quantity. Four servings to six, for example, is a factor of 1.5.
Set the new servings to twice (or any multiple of) the original. For a doubled recipe, 4 servings becomes 8. Check the cooking time, temperature and pan size yourself; they are not multiplied.
No. Units are kept as written and only quantities change. If you need cups converted to grams or ounces, convert the recipe separately and then scale it here.
No unit conversion, nutrition estimates or cooking guarantees. Scaling changes quantities; it does not determine cooking times, safe temperatures, pan capacity, or whether a recipe will work at a new size.
Ingredients, steps and edited results are processed in this tab, without being sent to a server or saved by this app. Closing or reloading the tab clears recipe content. Copy and download are your choice.
We measure anonymous page visits, review starts, explicit result confirmations and exports. A random session identifier is kept in sessionStorage, and only the last visit date is kept in localStorage to recognize a return within 60 days. Neither stores recipe content. Test visits use ?test=1 and are separated from ordinary use.
