About this free food & beverage process tool
How to use the Coffee Roast Loss & Green Purchase Planner
Convert roasted demand into supplier bags and purchase cost. The calculator runs privately in your browser and is designed to make the assumptions behind the answer visible.
What to have ready
Bring measured starting and finished weights, temperatures or readings, validated process assumptions, and the unit used in your production record.
Key inputs: Sellable roasted coffee needed; Expected roast weight loss; Post-roast sorting and handling loss; Cupping, samples, and calibration; Green coffee reserve.
How to use the result
Use the output to plan a trial or reconcile yield. Release decisions still require your validated process, calibrated measurements, and food-safety controls.

Spreadsheet questions
Using this tool as an Excel workbook
Use the browser calculator for speed, then take the result into the spreadsheet workflow that fits your business.
Can I export the Coffee Roast Loss & Green Purchase Planner to Excel?
Yes. Enter your information, review the live result, and select Export to Excel. Batch Scale creates a branded .xlsx workbook with your inputs and the result shown by the tool.
What is included in the Coffee Roast Loss & Green Purchase Planning Workbook?
The workbook includes a Tool Result sheet, an Inputs sheet, the original calculator link, and the date generated. When a supported calculator has an Excel formula profile, its result cells remain connected to the editable input cells.
Can I use the spreadsheet in Google Sheets?
You can import the .xlsx workbook into Google Sheets. Because spreadsheet applications sometimes interpret formulas and formatting differently, confirm any important result after importing—especially before using it for pricing, safety, compliance, or production.
Is the Excel download free?
Yes. The calculator and workbook are free. The first Excel export on a device asks for your email and permission to receive occasional practical Batch Scale resources. Once captured, later tool exports on that device download directly.
