How do I convert a recipe from millilitres to parts?

If I have a recipe which states:





750ml orange juice


240ml grapefruit juice


240ml tomato juice


480ml mango juice


200ml pomegranate juice





What is the best way to accurate determine the recipe in terms of parts?





Thanks in advance.

How do I convert a recipe from millilitres to parts?
Why??
Reply:Parts are just ratios. You could take the above recipe and look at it this way:





7.5 cups OJ


2.4 cups GJ


2.4 cups TJ


4.8 cups MJ


2 cups PJ





Then just divide those numbers to determine smaller quantities, like this:





7.5 cups / 2 = 3.75 cups


2.4 cups / 2 = 1.2 cups, and so on.
Reply:3 parts orange juice


1 part grapefruit juice


1 part tomato juice


2 parts mango juice


0.5 parts pomegranate juice
Reply:One cup is approximately 240 mL (in the United States).


So you could say you need 3 cups of orange juice,


1 cup grapefruit, 1 cup tomato, 2 cups mango and like ¾ cup of pomegranate juice.


In parts, 3:1:1:2:¾.
Reply:4 parts oarnge juice


1 part grapefruit


1 part tomato


3 parts mango


1 part pomegran





this is rounded though, using parts will not be accurate unless the parts are perfectly divisable by the total.





your total ml's are 1910 and none of the amounts evenly divide into that figure so going on the rounded figures, you will end up with more of some and less of others.

Reply:Add all your ingredients together to get the total. Then divide the individual ingredient amount by the total amount to get a %





OJ (750/1910) 40%


grapefruit (240/1910) 12.5%


tomato (240/1910) 12.5%


Mango (480/1910) 25%


pomegranate (200/1910) 10%





Now that you know your percentages mutiply the numbers by something easy like 2


8 parts OJ


2.5 parts grapefruit


2.5 parts Tomato


5 parts Mango


2 parts pomegranate
