What’s on the Yields poster
A 7-row table: Food · Raw per person · Cooked.
Per person, and how much raw is needed.
- Dried pasta — 75–100 g — ~2.5× weight
- Rice — 60–75 g — ~3× weight
- Potatoes — 200–250 g — Similar
- Meat, boneless — 150–200 g — ~75%
- Meat, bone-in — 250–300 g — ~55%
- Spinach — 250 g — ~10% of volume
- Dried beans — 60 g — ~2.5×
Bone-in cuts need roughly a third more raw weight for the same cooked yield.

- Who is the Yields poster for?
- Yields belongs to the Kitchen section rather than to a school year, because food is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning measures can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.
- When should you use the Yields poster?
- Rice and pasta roughly triple. Spinach collapses to almost nothing. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Yields belongs on the wall where that food work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
- What other posters go with Yields?
- Baking at Altitude, Brining and Coffee Ratios sit alongside Yields in the Kitchen section. Printed together they make a wall rather than a single sheet, which is how a reference set actually gets used.Baking at AltitudeBriningCoffee Ratios
- Is the Yields poster free to download and print?
- Yes. Yields downloads as a free PDF with no account, no email and no watermark, like everything else in the Kitchen section. Print as many copies as you like for a home, a classroom, a library or a tutoring group; reselling the file is the only thing the licence rules out.Read the licence
- What size does the Yields poster print at?
- Yields is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download. Because every mark on it is drawn rather than photographed, it stays sharp enlarged to A3, A2 or A1 at a copy shop. Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Yields loses nothing.Printing guide
