Quality Control

Physical analysis, green samples, and the figures behind a grade.

Available in RoastConsole Cloud on Web. The shared record. Roasts, profiles, green lots, and production orders kept in sync, with roasted output becoming inventory you can work with.

Measured, not estimated

Moisture, water activity, density, colour, and screen size recorded per sample against a named analyst and a date.

Defects counted by cause

Sixteen categories counted individually, with a separate quaker count, so the problem has a name and not just a number.

Physical evidence beside the cup

The measurable record and the cupping score attach to the same lot, so a decision can draw on either.
