Recipe Scaling Guide

Supported Measurements

Cups, tablespoons (tbsp), teaspoons (tsp), ounces (oz), pounds (lbs), grams (g), milliliters (ml), liters (l), and more. Works with fractions and decimals.

Fraction Format

Use standard fractions: 1/2, 1/4, 3/4, 1/3, 2/3. Mixed numbers like "1 1/2" work too. The converter handles all common recipe fractions.

Scaling Best Practices

Most recipes scale well between 0.5x and 4x. Baking recipes are more sensitive - adjust leavening agents carefully when scaling significantly.

Cooking Time Adjustments

Doubling a recipe doesn't double cooking time. Check doneness early and adjust as needed. Use a food thermometer for accuracy with scaled recipes.
