RecipeFlow
Recipe Keeper & Recipe Calculator

A recipe keeper is an app or system for saving, organizing, and retrieving recipes. Instead of scattering recipes across bookmarks, paper cards, and screenshots, a recipe keeper — like RecipeFlow — gives you a single searchable digital cookbook. You can tag recipes by category (breakfast, dinner, dessert), add personal notes, and find any dish in seconds.

To scale a recipe, calculate the ratio: desired servings ÷ original servings. Multiply every ingredient by that ratio. For example, to double a recipe for 4 people to serve 8, multiply all ingredients by 2. RecipeFlow does this automatically — just enter the new serving count and every quantity updates instantly.

Important note for baking: Leavening agents (baking powder, baking soda, yeast) don't always scale linearly. When scaling baking recipes by more than 2×, reduce leavening by about 25% to avoid a metallic taste or over-risen result.

Cups measure volume, grams measure weight — and the conversion depends on the ingredient. Common conversions: all-purpose flour (1 cup ≈ 120–125g), granulated sugar (1 cup ≈ 200g), butter (1 cup ≈ 227g), water/milk (1 cup ≈ 240g). RecipeFlow's recipe converter handles these ingredient-specific conversions automatically.

Baker's percentage expresses every ingredient as a percentage of total flour weight, where flour = 100%. For example, if a bread recipe uses 500g flour, 350g water, 10g salt, and 5g yeast — the baker's percentages are: water 70%, salt 2%, yeast 1%. This system makes it easy to scale recipes, compare formulas, and adjust hydration or enrichment levels precisely. RecipeFlow calculates baker's percentages automatically for any recipe.

RecipeFlow lets you organize recipes with custom categories (Breakfast, Dinner, Baking, etc.), tags for dietary types (vegan, gluten-free, quick), and collections for special occasions. The search function finds recipes by name, ingredient, or tag. You can also create meal plans that pull recipes from your collection.

Yes. RecipeFlow automatically backs up your entire recipe collection to the cloud. Your recipes are safe even if you lose or replace your phone. Cloud sync means your cookbook is accessible across devices and always up to date.

In RecipeFlow, enter your recipe ingredients with their quantities and weights. The app calculates total and per-serving calories, protein, carbohydrates, and fat automatically. This is useful for meal planning, tracking macros, or simply understanding the nutritional profile of your home cooking.

Enter the total yield of your recipe (e.g., total weight of a cake, total volume of a soup) and the desired serving size. RecipeFlow divides the total by the serving size to tell you how many servings the recipe produces. You can also work backwards: enter the desired number of servings and let the app scale all ingredient quantities to match.

Yes — RecipeFlow is free to download on Android. Core features including recipe saving, scaling, conversion, and organization are available at no cost. Download it on Google Play to get started immediately.

Yes. You can add recipes manually by entering the ingredients and instructions directly in the app. Each recipe becomes part of your personal digital cookbook, searchable and scalable at any time.
