### Calculated spices for second batch

- 75.8g salt (reduced by 20%)
- 10.5g black pepper

- 7 Star anise

**Calculation:**
First batch weight: 1.7kg
Second batch weight: 5.98kg
Scaling factor: 5.98 / 1.7 = 3.52

- Salt: (27g _ 3.52) _ 0.8 = 75.8g (20% reduction applied)
- Black pepper: (3g _ 3.52) _ 1.2 = 12.6g (20% increase applied)
- Coriander: 6g \* 3.52 = 21.1g
- Star anise: 2 \* 3.52 ≈ 7 (rounded to nearest whole star)
