Green storage

60–70°F, 50–60% RH, stable. Bags off the floor, hygrometer in the room, FIFO rotation. Never freeze.

Focus area

Packaging

Roasted coffee off-gasses for up to 10 days. Rest 12–24 hrs before bagging, then valve bags and a heat sealer — not a vacuum sealer.

Focus area

Pricing

Green cost ÷ roast yield, plus labor, packaging, and overhead. Then check that wholesale still clears COGS.
