Recipe scaler
Scale a recipe to a new yield while keeping kitchen fractions, liquid units, ingredient notes, and cocktail ratios readable.
How the recipe scaler works
The scale factor is the target serving count divided by the original serving count. Every parsed quantity is multiplied by that factor, including both ends of a range.
Mixed numbers, Unicode fractions, decimals, and written ranges such as one to two are accepted. Descriptive entries such as to taste stay unchanged and receive a review warning.
Frequently asked questions

The scaler adds up every liquid ingredient with a recognized unit and shows the total in 750 ml bottle equivalents. For dilution and containers, use the batch cocktail calculator.
