only thing im not liking is that you cant manually input the times for the roas session (or have I missed something). Under the "Sessions" form, easy enough to select the inventory, amount and set roast level, but if you want to record the timing of the roast, you have to simulate the roast again (unless ofcourse you have this running on a laptop and activate it as you roast)

Im not sure what you mean Sen. I input all the data as I go, with a pen and paper for backup in case it all gets too exciting. I know that not everyone has a laptop they can take to where they roast, but regardless of what spreadsheet or software youre using, if you dont log the data as you go, arent you essentially "simulating the roast" again every time you enter the data post-roast?

The second database is JAVA based so will work on most anything I would think.
This works fine on on my Macbook Pro with an Intel processor. Had some problems at first getting it to run as I didnt have the right Java Runtime Environment priority set but now its all working fine. Im loving this software!
This is awesome! very comprehensive for what im after!, i have been maintaining paper copies of all my roasts, this will be so much easier to reference back to for future, as long as i dont loose it

Re: Home roasting database
oh wow, thats just awesome, thanks for the links! I was going to try and build something like this in openoffice but it would have been pretty rural compared to this.
not too much existing data to transfer from spreadsheets and Im pretty sure itll be worth it.
Hhhmmm...Ill have to check that out. Ive been using an Access/Excel database/form I made to track my roasting. Ive ended up not using a lot of the fields I originally put in and adding others.
Java "If you dont track it you cant repeat it" phile
Hi all- have grabbed a copy of this nice looking database which may be of interest. Wonder if it works??? You can supposedly log pretty much everything including inventory, roast details, blends and a whole heap of other things. It runs in MS access and is about 0.5MB....avalook if you feel inclined.... http://improbablystructuredlayers.ne...B/CRDBHome.htm NOw...time to experiment
