Roast-to-order gives you fresher coffee. It also means you can't order it at four o'clock and have it at nine.
Warehouse supply ships whatever is on the shelf, so lead times look short — but the coffee may have been sitting for weeks. Roast-to-order builds your coffee after you order, which is why freshness and lead time are two sides of one trade.
Your reorder point should be calculated from your busiest week's usage plus the lead time, not from your average. Averages are exactly what fail you on a bank holiday weekend.
Standing schedules remove the arithmetic entirely. We roast to your rhythm, you stop thinking about it, and emergency top-ups become the exception rather than the routine.
Remote delivery bands add transit time. That's a planning input, not a surprise — we build it into the schedule rather than leaving you to discover it.
Because held stock ages. Roast-to-order is the reason the coffee arrives tasting the way it was designed to.
Enough to cover your lead time at peak usage — the schedule should do the rest.
Top-up dispatch exists for that, though a well-sized standing order should make it rare.
Transit time varies by delivery band, and we plan the schedule around it.
