In meez you and every team member can scale & convert units in recipes simultaneously.

Note: When scaling, make sure you are in view mode!

There are multiple ways to scale in meez:

Change the quantity of any ingredient
Change the Batch Size
Change the Total Yield
Check out our walkthrough here!

1. Change the quantity of any ingredient

Running low on semolina flour? Or maybe your making a liver mousse and recipe is based on amount of duck livers??? No problem, simply change the quantity of any ingredient, and the recipe scales for you automatically!!!

Just click the quantity you want to change in your recipe and a type a new one.

2. Change the Total Yield

You can also change the amount of desired total yield.

Type in the new yield qty and press tab or enter, and all of your ingredients will scale.

3. Change the Batch Size

Choose a standard 1x, 2x, 1/2x, etc. Or customize using any number, fraction or decimal (1/3x, 0.45x, 55x).

•You can select from the drop down or type in a new custom batch size and then press tab or enter.

•All of your ingredients will scale!

Create a Custom Batch size

Want to scale a recipe and save it that way. Need the scaled up version be the first version you see? Create a custom batch size!

Creating a custom batch is available for Starter and higher subscriptions. When exporting recipes, ensure the custom batch is set as the default batch size, as exports use the default batch size rather than the scaled version.

To create a custom batch size click the edit button and then click the small graph and pencil icon just to the right of the Total Yield area.

The custom batch modal will appear. You can now set up your custom batch one of three ways. Changing any one of the three will scale the recipe to the new batch size.

You select one of the present batch multipliers 1x to 5x.
Set your total yield for the new batch size amount you need.
Change the amounts or units on the ingredients themselves.

Once you have set up your new batch size click the Save Custom Batch button.

The next step will be to name your new custom batch and click Add Batch.

Notice the checkbox to Make this the default Batch. Check this box if you would like this new batch size to be the batch you want to see every time you load this recipe. If you want to export an order list for this custom batch size, check this box as well. This step is crucial for exporting recipes, as the export will use the default batch size. After exporting, you can revert the default batch size back to the original if needed.

Once you have added the new batch size, click Done at the top screen. You can now click on the Batch size number and select your custom batch size from the drop down menu.

To properly export a scaled recipe:

Scale the recipe to the desired size.
Create a custom batch and set it as the new default. This step is crucial because exports use the recipe's default batch size, not the scaled version.
After exporting, you can revert the default batch size back to the original (e.g., 1x) if needed. If you only need a printout of the scaled recipe, you can scale it and select the print option. Choose to print it as a PDF to preserve the scaled data without additional setup.

Exporting Higher Batch Totals Across Multiple Recipes

If you need to export higher batch totals across multiple recipes, you can:

Create an order list recipe that aggregates the desired recipes and quantities.
Export the order list to generate a comprehensive summary of the increased totals.
