What is the yield and average serving size of dry beans?
A portion of uncooked beans typically doubles after cooking (e.g. 2 cups uncooked equals between 4-5 cups of cooked beans). Average serving size is estimated to be 1/4 cup of uncooked beans (56.70 grams) per person (approx. 1/2 cup or 113.40 grams of cooked beans). Based on this serving size, one 110 lb. bag (50kg) of uncooked beans will yield approximately 880 servings.
