Blend scaler
Pick a blend, pick whose version you want, and set a batch size. Proportions are by weight, because measuring a blend by spoon gives a different mix — the spices differ in density.
| Ingredient | Weight | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Coriander seed | 15.2 g | 30% |
| Blue fenugreek | 7.6 g | 15% |
| Summer savory | 7.6 g | 15% |
| Dried marigold | 7.6 g | 15% |
| Dried basil | 3.8 g | 8% |
| Dried dill | 3.8 g | 8% |
| Bay leaf(range) | 1.4 g | 3% |
| Dried mint(range) | 2.9 g | 6% |
Answer
50 g of khmeli suneli from 8 ingredients
Based on the full household blend, attributed to common georgian household composition.
What you asked
- Blend:
- Khmeli suneli
- Version:
- Full household blend — Common Georgian household composition
- Target batch:
- 50 g
How it was worked out
Each ingredient's parts are divided by the total parts to give its share of the mix, and that share is multiplied by the target batch weight. Scaling is linear, so the same shares apply at any batch size.
1. Add up the parts
Coriander seed 4 + Blue fenugreek 2 + Summer savory 2 + Dried marigold 2 + Dried basil 1 + Dried dill 1 + Bay leaf 0.25–0.5 + Dried mint 0.5–1
= 13.1 parts
Ingredients given as a range use the typical value, or the midpoint where no typical value is recorded.
2. Work out the weight of one part
50 g ÷ 13.1 parts
= 3.81 g per part
3. Multiply each ingredient by its parts
= 8 ingredients scaled
What this assumes
- Proportions are by weight, not by volume. Measuring these by spoon would give a different mix, because the spices differ in density.
- Proportions come from the "Full household blend" version, attributed to Common Georgian household composition.
- Those proportions are recorded as representative.
Where this stops being reliable
- Some proportions are recorded as ranges. The scaled weights use the typical value and should be treated as a starting point.
- This is one of 2 versions recorded for Khmeli suneli. It is not the definitive one — there isn't one.
