We have added a setting within your CookBook account that allows you to round your ingredients to known simple, fixed amounts.
Is is generally useful when scaling or converting, as different countries and their measures have different sizes for things such as cups, tablespoons etc.
CookBook on request will convert different cups to other measurement systems. For example - 1.5 metric cups = 1.59 US standard cups OR 1.32 imperial cups - which can look a little odd when you're cooking!
We've split measures and their rounding's out, dependent on the size of the measure.
Cups, tsp, tbsp, fl oz, pint, ounces, dl, cl and pound will all follow the fixed amounts chart below and round to the closest amount.
ml & grams will display as a whole number.
Litres, kg, quart and stone will round to the closest 0.05.
Gallons will round to the nearest 0.025
| Fixed Amounts | |
| 0.125 | 1/8 |
| 0.25 | 1/4 |
| 0.33 | 1/3 |
| 0.5 | 1/2 |
| 0.66 | 2/3 |
| 0.75 | 3/4 |
| 0.875 | 7/8 |
If you'd like your ingredients to be accurate, tap the side menu and head into 'Settings'. Under 'General' change 'Ingredient rounding' to 'Accurate'.
