Tools Overview

Every tool on the Tools page in one place: what each calculator, planner, import and export does, whether it is free, needs sign-in or Premium, and where to read more. Includes the editor-only tools Replace Milk and Cream, Stabilizer Ratio and Final Water %.

Import and Export

All import and export tools on the Tools page: import recipes, ingredients and charts; export to Excel, JSON and the desktop app; Excel Backup. Which files they use, what each file contains, and which tools need Premium.

HTML Reports

Create reports, labels, spec sheets and work orders from recipes, recipe sets, products and production plans with HTML templates: tag syntax, repeat blocks, recipe instructions (method), QR codes and barcodes, input fields, label sheets, Quick Report and Python scripts.

Volume Estimator

Calculate total ice cream volume from base mix weight, density, overrun and inclusions. Load a recipe or enter values by hand. Includes a 100+ item inclusion library with displacement values, a bulkiness slider for custom add-ins, and per-liter figures for container planning.

Brix Adjustment Tool

Correct sorbet and gelato recipes at production time with a refractometer: measure the fruit (Mode A) or the finished mix (Mode B) to get the sugar, syrup or water correction, or use Cooking Reduction (Mode C) to find the weight to cook pâte de fruit down to.

Display Case

Plan your gelato or ice cream cabinet: set the case temperature and see for every flavor whether it is too hard, ideal, soft or too soft, from its frozen water percentage, with sweetness (POD), allergens and nutrition per 100 g.
