For specialty coffee roasters

When the home brew goes wrong, your coffee takes the blame.

Put a QR on every bag. When a home brew comes out wrong, the page hands them a fix to try, not a reason to blame your beans. I build the pages, bring the printed cards, and run it. You just roast.

Brew recipe page for one bean
Scan, pick gear, get the recipe
Taste feedback page with three buttons
One tap on taste, one fix back

How it works

One scan, on the bag or at your counter

Two codes, one job each. The bag brings a customer back after they leave your shop. The counter turns a cup in your cafe into a bag buyer and a name on your list.

1

A page made for them

A recipe dialed to their gear, or the story behind the drink in their hand.

2

A fix, never a blame

When their home brew is off, one tap gives them a fix to try. It never blames your coffee.

3

The next bag

A reminder before this one runs out, or a fresh one from your counter.

What you get

The part you have never had

  • A reorder you can actually count. Each scan can unlock a code for the next bag that redeems at your own checkout, so the repeat sale lands in your store, counted by you.
  • The buyers a shelf or cafe hides from you. A bag sold through a grocer, a cafe, or as a gift usually disappears. The scan is your one chance to reach that drinker and bring them in.
  • A list that stays yours. The customers who opt in are yours to email and yours to export, anytime, including after you cancel. No one else touches it.
  • Set up for you, by one person. I build the bean pages, hand you the printed cards, and run the thing. You never become a software operator, and the reply always comes from me.

See it live

Try a real bean page

I keep a demo roaster running so you can poke at the real thing before you decide anything.

Demo Roaster is made up. I never put a real roaster on this site.

The person

Who's behind this, and how to reach me

I'm Hari Gondela. I live in Windsor, Ontario, and RoasterDesk is a one person company.

A roaster learns almost nothing about a bag after it is sold. The customer brews it wrong, blames the coffee, and never comes back. RoasterDesk closes that gap.

Roasting within an hour of Windsor or Detroit? Email me and I will come to you. Bring your top beans and I will bring printed cards. Either way, the reply comes from me.

The deal

The deal, in writing

Every pilot signs a one page contract. These four clauses are in it word for word.

PILOT AGREEMENT · EXCERPT

  1. 1.Cancel anytime, with no notice period and no exit fee.
  2. 2.Cancel, and the bags you already printed keep working. They fall back to a basic recipe page, so a scan is not a dead link and you never reprint.
  3. 3.Your list is yours. It exports to CSV anytime, including after you cancel.
  4. 4.No cross promotion, ever. Your customers never see another roaster's name through anything I run, and I never take a commission on your sales.

If the first month convinces you it is not for you, I refund the other two months and you keep the cards and the list.
