Using Roast Goals

This article will explain the process of adding Roast Goals.



The Roast Goals feature is only available for Professional and higher tiers. 


    Why use Roast Goals?


    The Roast Goals feature allows you to monitor your roasts and consistency objectives without needing a Roast Comparison report.

    Cropster automatically checks your roasts for various parameters and provides immediate feedback after each roast and in the end-of-day production email, indicating which roasts passed or failed.
