About changing green lots and roast weights

When adjusting the Start weights or replacing green lots, your green inventory weight will be recalculated accordingly. If the inventory weight for the green lot in question has been adjusted manually after the roast has been conducted, the inventory weight won't be calculated back into the lot upon replacing it by another.

To revise the roast components or start and end weights follow these steps:

Log in to the online platform C-sar.
Navigate to the Roasts on the main menu bar.
Select Roasts. You will be directed to the Roasts overview page.
Click on the two arrows on the right side of the page at the roast in question.
The Adjust lot window will pop up.

💡 You can only select green lots that are assigned to the same location as the roast and that have been registered before the roast has been conducted.
Click on Update roast to save the changes.

📚 Learn why the green lot is unavailable when editing the lot used on a completed roast, and how you can troubleshoot the issue.

Rolling back (undoing) a roast

Undo a roast and roll back the green inventory used by following these steps:

Log in to the online platform C-sar.
Navigate to the Roasts on the main menu bar.
Select Roasts. You will be directed to the Roasts overview page.
Click on Edit on the right side of the page at the roast you wish to undo.
Scroll down to the Green section on the editing page.
💡 If you change a green lot or a weight, the weight of both the old and the new lot will be recalculated.
Set the Start weight (green) and End weight (roasted) fields to 0 (zero).
Scroll down to the bottom and click Update roast.
A warning message will appear:
Click Delete to confirm.

Updating the roast curve

The roast curve itself can not be altered. If you need to alter the roast curve, add a new roast manually and copy the roast curve by clicking the Copy button under the Roasting curve section. You may then select an existing roast curve to copy.

Adding or revising comments

Double click at the graph to add a new comment.
Click on a comment to revise or delete it.

Editing the duration

When moving to the Duration tab, a timeline below the graph appears. To change the duration of your roast, move the start or end point to the desired point in time or enter the start and end time in the fields below.

This action can't be undone. You will not be able to recover the roast period you have removed after you save the roast.

Congratulations! You are now ready to edit a completed roast.
