The Barista Forge platform

Run the shop you mean to grow.

Owners and managers organize the business from a desktop workspace. Employees use the Barista Forge app on their own devices for current recipes, training, production, counts, and shift work.

One connected operating picture

Understand the shop without stitching together five different systems.

Each part can stand on its own, but the real value appears when a recipe, its cost, the ingredients behind it, and the employee making it all share the same current information.

Recipes & costing

Build drinks your team can repeat and your business can afford

A measured drink build connects to store sizes, packaging, selling price, and purchase-backed costs. Owners can review the margin while employees see the current recipe in the app.

From idea to menu

Training

Give company knowledge somewhere permanent to live

Build lessons from foundational coffee education, your recipes, service standards, and location details. Assign them from desktop and let employees continue on their phones.

Across every shift

Inventory & operations

See what is on hand, what it cost, and what needs attention

Purchases and receipts update the inventory picture. Counts, production, and tasks then show the team what needs attention at each location.

A clearer daily picture

A useful place to begin

See the business from one operating home.

The owner dashboard shows what needs attention, what changed, and where to go next. Open a low-stock ingredient, an overdue task, or a recipe cost change from the same desktop workspace instead of rebuilding the story across separate files.

Screenshot needed · Owner dashboard

Desktop view with a populated shop, clear location context, useful alerts, recent activity, and navigation to recipes, inventory, training, and tasks.

From owner to employee

Manage on desktop. Put the day’s work in every employee’s pocket.

The owner maintains recipes, training, inventory, and location settings from the desktop workspace. Each employee signs into the app on their own phone to see the current material and tasks for their role and active shop. A change made once reaches the people who need it without another group message or printed binder update.

Sharedknowledge across roles

Screenshot needed · Employee mobile home

Mobile view with today’s tasks, learning or recipe access, active location, and a realistic completed/in-progress state.

Built for real coffee shops

Useful on a busy Tuesday, not only during a planning meeting.

Barista Forge is designed around the work coffee operators repeat: updating a drink, receiving an order, counting stock, training a new employee, communicating a change, and understanding whether the business is improving.

See it with your own operation in mind

Walk through the platform with the questions you already have about your shop.

Bring one recipe, training gap, inventory question, or recurring shift problem. We will follow it through the desktop owner tools and the employee app so you can judge whether the workflow fits your shop.
