Understanding Variants

Whole Bean

Original coffee beans, perfect for home grinding and maximum freshness

Pre-Ground

Ready-to-brew coffee, ground to ideal specifications

Each product variant comes with its own unique SKU identifier in the Roastify system.

Each variant has a unique SKU (Stock Keeping Unit). SKUs cannot be duplicated across variants.

Managing Variants in Shopify

1

Access your product in Shopify admin

2

Click “Add Variant” in the variants section

3

Enter variant details:

  • Title (grind type)
  • Price
  • SKU (critically important)
  • Select “Roastify” for inventory

SKU Format Requirements:

  • Use uppercase letters
  • Include dashes between parts
  • Follow the pattern: COF-GND-12O-RCK-BOX or COF-WHB-12O-RCK-BOX
  • GND = Ground, WHB = Whole Bean

While Roastify maintains variant records, you can modify how they appear in your Shopify store. For example, remove the “Ground” variant if your packaging specifically shows “Whole Bean”.
