Roasting, References and Replays

The Digital Recipe for Consistency

Consistency is the name of the game in specialty coffee. By using Profiles in Cropster, you’re not just roasting; you’re building a repeatable system for excellence.

What you’ll learn:

• How to create new profiles
• Managing different profiles per lot
• Basic information needed to create profiles

Who is it for?

• Roasters
• Production Managers
• Quality Control Managers
• Any other team member who standardises roasting

Why is it important?

• Profiles act as your digital recipe book. They allow you to compare every live roast against your “Golden Batch,” ensuring that your customers get the same high-quality flavour profile every time.

Let’s set up your first Profile!

Quick Start: Building a Profile

1. Navigate: Head to Roasts > Profiles in your Cropster account.
2. Name & Categorize: Use clear names (like “Morning Blend” or “Sumatra Dark”) to keep your production schedule organized.
3. The Reference Curve: This is the “secret sauce.” Select a previous roast that tasted perfect; this curve will show up in the background while you roast to help you stay on target.
4. Set Your Goals: Define your ideal roast time and end temperature so the system can flag any deviations.
5. Save: Once saved, your profile will automatically sync to your Roasting Intelligence software.
