How This Works
Scale factor = new servings ÷ original servings. Each ingredient quantity is multiplied by this factor. For example, scaling from 4 to 10 servings uses a factor of 2.5. Note: some ingredients (especially salt, spices, baking powder) don't scale perfectly linearly — taste as you go when scaling up significantly.
Baking is more sensitive to scaling than cooking. Leavening agents (baking powder, bicarbonate of soda) should not be scaled proportionally for very large batches — too much creates a chemical taste and uneven rise. As a rule: for batches up to 3× original, scale leavening at 75% of the calculated amount. Liquid may also need slight adjustment as larger volumes behave differently in mixing. Salt and spices: scale but taste and adjust rather than following the calculator blindly.
