Resize any recipe to a new serving count, with practical, cook-friendly rounding.
Quantities are rounded to the nearest practical cooking measurement (⅛, ¼, ⅓, ½, ⅔, ¾) instead of showing an awkward decimal. You can type fractions directly (e.g. "1 1/2").
Scaling often produces awkward numbers like 1.33 cups — not something a standard measuring cup can measure directly. Rounding to the nearest common cooking fraction (⅛, ¼, ⅓, ½, ⅔, ¾) gives you a quantity you can actually measure, with a negligible difference in the final result for almost every recipe.
Yes — enter quantities like "1/2" or "1 1/2" directly in the quantity field, and they'll be parsed correctly before scaling.
Yes — enter a target serving count higher than the original to scale up, or lower to scale down. The scale factor shown (e.g. ×1.5 or ×0.5) applies to every ingredient at once.
Scale the recipe first at its original units, then use the Unit Converter's cooking-specific conversions (like US cup vs Imperial cup) to switch systems if needed.
