Terms of use

Bake at Elevation is free to use. By using it, you agree to these plain terms.

Best-effort guidance

Altitude adjustments are starting points based on published guidance from CSU Extension and King Arthur Baking. They aren't guarantees: ovens, pans, ingredients and weather vary. Check that the ingredient list we read matches your recipe, and use your judgment.

Not for canning, candy or food safety

Don't use this site for home canning, candy or sugar-syrup temperatures, or food-safety decisions such as meat doneness. Follow official guidance for those, such as the National Center for Home Food Preservation and USDA FSIS.

Your recipes

Only convert recipes you have the right to use. Recipe links are read for their ingredient list and timing only; for the full method we link you back to the original page. See Privacy for how recipes are handled.

No warranty

The site is provided as is, without warranties of any kind. To the extent the law allows, we're not liable for results, including baking outcomes or lost ingredients.

Affiliate links

There are none right now. If we add any, they'll be labeled where they appear, and they'll never change our adjustments.

Changes

We may update these terms; the current version is always on this page. Last updated October 28, 2026.
