About the Recipe Scaler
Adjust a listed ingredient when the serving count changes.
Formula
Scale factor equals desired servings divided by original servings; scaled amount equals ingredient amount times that factor.
Example
Changing four servings to six uses a 1.5 factor, so two cups become three cups.
Notes
Apply the factor to each ingredient separately; practical rounding may depend on how the ingredient is measured.
