Free Recipe Converter and Serving Calculator

Divide, multiply or scale every ingredient for the number of people eating. Import a recipe webpage, type a recipe, upload a document, or photograph a recipe, then review, print or save the complete scaled recipe.

Import a recipe

Paste a public recipe-page address, or choose a PDF, Word .docx, text file or image. You will review and correct the digital recipe before anything is saved.

Works best with public pages that include recipe details. Some websites block imports; if that happens, paste the recipe text below.

Or upload a document or photo

On a phone, use Take a photo to open the camera. Files are read on this device; only the recipe you confirm is saved.

Leave this empty if the recipe already says how many it serves. You can correct the detected number afterward.

Photo and scanned-PDF recognition can make mistakes. Always check amounts, allergies, cooking instructions and temperatures against the original.

Your digital recipe

Start each ingredient line with a quantity, such as “1 1/2 cups flour” or “250 g rice”.

Recipe scaling guide

Divide or multiply a recipe without guessing

This free recipe converter calculator works as a recipe divider, recipe multiplier, ingredient calculator and recipe serving calculator. It changes quantities by the serving ratio while leaving each ingredient in its original unit.

Worked example: divide 8 servings to 4

The scale factor is 4 ÷ 8 = 0.5.

  • 4 cups flour becomes 2 cups
  • 2 cups milk becomes 1 cup
  • 4 eggs become 2 eggs

Worked example: multiply 4 servings to 6

The scale factor is 6 ÷ 4 = 1.5.

  • 2 cups flour becomes 3 cups
  • 1 cup milk becomes 1 1/2 cups
  • 2 eggs become 3 eggs

Recipe scaling calculator for portions and servings

Use the calculator for family dinners, baking batches, meal prep or smaller portions. Fractions such as 1/2 and 1 1/2 are accepted. For measurement changes rather than serving changes, keep in mind that a cooking measurement converter should only convert compatible units; volume-to-weight conversions need ingredient-specific information.

Scaling more than one recipe? Use the free grocery list generator for multiple recipes to combine matching ingredients into one aisle-grouped shopping list.

Recipe converter questions

How do I scale a recipe for a different number of people?

Enter the recipe's original serving count, choose the new serving count and add one quantity-led ingredient per line. SavourWeek multiplies every ingredient by the same serving ratio.

Can I use this as a recipe divider?

Yes. Choose a smaller new serving count to divide a recipe. For example, changing eight servings to four halves every ingredient quantity.

Can the recipe calculator multiply a recipe?

Yes. Choose a larger serving count and the recipe multiplier increases each recognised quantity while preserving familiar fractions where practical.

Does the ingredient calculator convert cups to grams?

No. Cups measure volume and grams measure weight, so a safe conversion depends on the ingredient's density. SavourWeek scales quantities but does not guess unsafe cross-unit conversions.

Can I import and print the complete recipe?

Yes. Import a public recipe webpage, paste text, or upload a supported document or photo. Review the ingredients and cooking method, scale it, then print the complete recipe.
