FAQ – Recipe Scaler
Does everything scale equally?
Most ingredients scale linearly, but spices, salt, and leavening agents may need slight adjustments. Start with 75% of the scaled spice amount and adjust to taste.
Do cooking times change?
Cooking times may increase for larger batches. Check internal temperature rather than relying solely on time.
Can I halve a recipe?
Yes. Set original servings to the recipe amount and desired to half. The calculator handles fractions automatically.
