Hi, I'm new to this forum even though I've used this app for a while. I wanted to know how would you calculate the serving size in the recipe builder to grams? Let's say I add 24g whey protein, 50g of egg whites and however many grams of Stevia, how would I get per serving to equate to grams? Thank you.

    Weigh the finished recipe on a scale in grams, enter number of grams as number of servings.

    ditto above I do 1 serving = 250 grams. weigh out the whole thing and divide, there's my amount of servings per recipe.

    The thing is though, it will still say "servings" not "gram", "ounce", "100g", "4 oz", "1 cup," "1 Tbsp." or whatever the appropriate unit of measurement would normally be . So if you have a bunch of recipes of different types you must either make "serving" equal to the same unit in all your recipes or else keep a list somewhere of what "serving" means in each instance.

    I'm writing this mostly in hopes there is something I'm missing and somebody will point it out. Or maybe you have a come up with a helpful workaround.

    I weigh the pan or bowl or whatever I cook or mix everything in before I put anything in it, then when done cooking, weigh the whole thing and subtract the pan weight. Use that as number of servings, and any recipe I do that for, I write 'by gram' in the title.

    I weigh my finished product in grams and always set the serving size as 100g, and put that in the title. Makes the math easy!!

    I just write <recipe name>- per (10g, 100g, whatever) in the title.
