Coffee roaster inventory software
Coffee roaster inventory software has to bridge two stockrooms: finished bags and the green coffee they come from. Logistified forecasts demand for your finished products and triggers reorders, while Assemblified models the roast as a bill of materials — green beans in, roasted coffee out — so green planning and true cost reflect the 12–20% weight lost to roasting.
The inventory challenges
- Roasting burns off roughly 12–20% of green weight, so finished-bag COGS is higher than the raw bean price suggests.
- Green-coffee planning is a guess when you only forecast finished products and back into bean needs by hand.
- Narrow roaster margins leave little room for over-buying green or mispricing the roast.
- Without a recipe link, selling a bag doesn't tell you how much green coffee you just consumed.
Forecast finished bags with Logistified
Logistified runs 12 demand-forecast models with automatic per-SKU selection and seasonal models on the Enhanced plan, so you can project demand for each finished coffee and set lead-time-aware reorder points. That keeps your bestselling roasts in stock and feeds a reliable production signal into the rest of the workflow.
Model the roast as a BOM with Assemblified
In Assemblified, each finished bag becomes a bill of materials whose green-coffee input quantity accounts for roast weight loss — set 1.2 kg of green to yield 1 kg roasted and the math follows automatically. Component stock syncs as bags sell, and true cost calculation rolls up material, labour, and overhead so per-bag COGS reflects the real green consumed, not just the bean price.
Run forecasting and BOM together
With Logistified and Assemblified connected, the demand forecast for finished bags flows into raw-material demand for green coffee, and supplier purchase orders for green can be created automatically. That closes the loop between what you'll sell and what you need to buy — see how the combination works on the Logistified × Assemblified page.

Frequently asked
How do I account for roast weight loss in COGS?
Model the roast as a bill of materials in Assemblified and set the green-coffee input quantity to reflect the 12–20% lost to roasting. True cost calculation then rolls up material, labour, and overhead per finished bag.
Can I plan green-coffee purchasing from finished-bag demand?
Yes. With Logistified connected, the forecast for finished bags flows into raw-material demand for green coffee, and supplier purchase orders can be created automatically.
Do bags deduct green coffee when they sell?
Yes. Assemblified's BOM keeps component stock in sync, so selling a finished bag automatically deducts the green coffee defined in its recipe.
