Coffee Roastery Daily Production Log

Running a coffee roastery means juggling multiple production variables every single day—from tracking which beans you've roasted and their profiles to monitoring quality through cupping sessions and keeping equipment in top shape. This Coffee Roastery Daily Production Log brings all those moving parts into one streamlined form that your roasting team can fill out at the end of each shift or production day.

Whether you're a small-batch specialty roaster, a growing wholesale operation, or managing multiple roasters across shifts, this template helps you maintain detailed records of everything that happens in your roastery. Log which coffee origins and varietals you roasted, capture critical roast profile data like development time and end temperature, track how much you packaged for wholesale versus retail, and document quality assessments from cupping sessions—all in one place.

The form is built for real roastery workflows. You can record multiple batches per day, note any deviations from your standard profiles, flag quality issues early, and keep a running log of equipment performance and maintenance needs. This kind of consistent documentation helps you refine your roasting techniques, catch quality drift before it reaches customers, maintain traceability for your supply chain, and plan preventative maintenance before breakdowns cost you production time.

Paperform makes this daily logging process fast and flexible. The intuitive form layout means your roasters can complete their logs quickly without disrupting the production flow, and you can customize fields to match your exact bean inventory, roast styles, and quality standards. Set up automated workflows with Stepper (stepper.io) to route completed logs to your head roaster for review, sync production data into your inventory management system, or trigger maintenance alerts when equipment issues are flagged multiple times. You can even integrate with Google Sheets or Airtable to build real-time production dashboards that help you spot trends and optimize your roasting schedule.

Perfect for specialty coffee roasters, wholesale roasting operations, café roasters, and contract roasting facilities, this template helps you maintain the meticulous records that great coffee demands—without the clipboard chaos or scattered spreadsheets.
