Created a new Misc and the numbers didn't match

Hi there,

I created a new Misc item for Passion Fruit, 170g can from Australia that I currently have

Opened a recipe and added the new item, recipe shows 178g.

Went back into Misc items and verified the Passion Fruit item is indeed 170g

Bug or am I doing something wrong?

Open up your new Misc item and look at the 'amount' and then the next line 'for batch of'.  This is the basis for which the amount is figured when adding it to a recipe.  When you bring it into your recipe, the amount of the Misc item should scale to the batch size of the recipe.  So if you added this can of passion fruit as 170 grams for a 19 liter batch and your batch size is 20 liters, it would scale the amount up to 179 grams when you add it.
