About Recipe Convert Free
Recipe unit conversion calculator: Convert volume & weight measurements in recipes. Makes scaling servings yields up or down easy for cooks, bakers, & chefs at home or the restaurant
FEATURES:
* Values can be entered and displayed as either fractions or decimals
* Will make the coveted "grams to cups" conversion, as well as other weight/volume conversions, based on user-selectable weight factor parameter
* Quick switch between scaling yields to general 1:1 units (by tapping "Yield" section to collapse it)
* Also serves as a general reference of cooking units, temperatures & gas marks, and decimal equivalents to fractions
If you want to, for instance, know how many tablespoons are in a cup:
Set the ratio to 1:1 by either clearing out the top section or collapsing it (by tapping the header labeled "Yield". Tapping the header again will bring it back). Now you can see the equivalent amount in any unit for any unit that you enter into the "Original" field.
*** Please PLEASE use the "Contact Developer" link here in the Android Market to report bugs && request features! It's way easier to discuss things in depth that way! ***
*** To the few who have commented that it's "stupid" to have the "Rate" button where it is, please stop && think. You don't HAVE to rate it before using it, nor are you even being asked to. You will notice that there are 2 buttons. This is the "About" dialog that is shown the first time you run any new version or tap the "About" menu item. ***

App History & Updates
What's Changed
2.5001 [Mar 15, 2013]: The last update for Recipe Convert free. Internet permissions and ad code have been removed. The paid version is much nicer and continues to be updated and improved. Please consider purchasing it. Think of it as a tip: Less than the cost of a single cup of coffee for my many hours of work on something you can use as much as you like. Compare this to conventional tipping for a meal which you use once and is both prepared and gone relatively quickly.

I like the thought, and it looks like it would work well. However, when I attempt to enter a value to convert, it only opens the numerical keyboard on my device. There is no option to add decimals or fractions. The buttons just simply aren't there.

Layout is a bit clunky, especially choosing unit to convert to includes quantity which really slows scanning the list. Lists 1 cup of flour as 100g which is way on the low end of most conversions (e.g. King Arthur Flour uses 120g and most American recipes assume unsifted flour which is ~140g). Unfortunately can't edit the conversions saved but thankfully are transparently noted so you can opt to use a better one when you know it's off, like the "Dead Smith flour" (what is that?) at 130g/cup instead.

For some unknown reason Americans use stupid measurements. Finally good to get a translation.

An excellent & essential app! (And I also must add fyi that I often receive automatic updates of apps even though I definitely select to not receive auto-updates. I have to go in & reselect it every once in awhile to be sure they don't happen, esp on my tablet... & I feel sure it is a Google Play Store problem & not the fault of anyone's app! :) Imo it's not a good reason to get triggered, blame & then hastily uninstall a good app!)

Most non-American cookbooks list ingredient amounts in grams (g). This calculator only converts from ml. Yes, I can do the math, but why not add a g conversion, too? Maybe on the paid version?

Absolutely impressed!!! Wasn't sure if it would work but I'll be darned. It did. The same calculations it took me soil much time to convert. It did those same 1's in seconds. I love the measures right there. Would recommend this app to install.

I'm about to get the paid version so thought I should leave a comment here. The converter works very well both on a phone and tablet. It has come in very handy in the kitchen as I like to use weights instead of volume for dry goods. Very nice that this provides both metric, US and UK measurements. I try to stick with grams. Some of the conversion factors may be suspect. For instance, all-purpose flower probably should use 125 or so for a conversion. 100 is too low. The solution until upated is to select something that has 125 for the conversion factor and just go with it. To be fair, only the all-purpose flour I question.

I downloaded this app to convert measurements especially to metric measurements as well as vice versa. It converted 74oz. to 2 3/16 l. This doesn't make it easier if I end up having to calculate how much 3/16 is. Good idea but needs improvement.
