If you are a busy cook, or even slightly mathematically challenged, you'll love this device. It allows you to scale recipes up or down, easily calculating increases and decreases in portions. If you have a European cookbook or two, it cuts through all that metric confusion - coverting weights and measures quickly in fractions or decimals. Enter and convert between teaspoons, tablespoons, fluid ounces, pints, millileters, even dashes and pinches! Finally it's a digital timer that will keep track of elapsed time even while you perform other calculations.
