Tools

Food batch record

Record production and lot references. Adapt this starter to your operation and required records.

Free

Food yield and purchase quantity

Enter purchased and usable quantities in the same unit. Use your measured yield to estimate purchases for a desired usable quantity. It does not establish shelf life or food safety.

Free

Ingredient unit converter

Enter a conversion factor from your package, scale or verified reference. Factor means target units per source unit.

Free

Kitchen cleaning checklist

Organize your reviewed cleaning procedure. Supply your own products, method, frequency and verification notes. This does not specify sanitizing requirements. Replace starter tasks with your process.

Free

Kitchen prep sheet

List required and already available quantities using one unit per row. Negative requirements are rejected. No stock reservation or food-safety assessment.

Free

Menu engineering worksheet

Compare each item with your own contribution and sales-count thresholds for the same period. Categories are above/below your thresholds, not industry recommendations.

Free

Nutrition data preparation worksheet

Organize nutrient amounts from your own recipe analysis or lab report for review. Each row is a nutrient total for the entire batch; amount per serving is arithmetic only.

Free

Recipe batch scaler

Scale ingredient quantities by target yield divided by original yield. Original and target yield use the same unit. Ingredient units stay as entered.

Free

Recipe ingredient costing

Use the same unit for each ingredient quantity and its unit cost. Include expected purchasing loss in your entered unit costs. Labor and other batch costs are entered separately.

Free

Recipe, portion cost and menu pricing

Enter total recipe cost, saleable portions and your target food-cost percent. Enter an actual menu price to compare. Costs and target are yours; no recommended margin or tax rate is supplied.
