Reorder points for bags and valves keep failing during busy weeks

Recently I have been discussing setting reorder points for bags and valves with several coffee people and nobody gives the same answer. Some treat it as small detail, some say it changes the whole workflow. I am not looking for textbook reply. I want to know whether setting reorder points for bags and valves gives meaningful difference once you repeat it over many cycles.

Would you keep setting reorder points for bags and valves in your normal process, or only for specific coffees and situations?

What helped me most was keeping short notes each time. Without notes, discussion about setting reorder points for bags and valves becomes memory battle and not real evaluation.

i see setting reorder points for bags and valves work in some place, but usually only when the notes are clear and people really compare batch by batch. if not, discussion become only feeling.

I think the bigger issue is not setting reorder points for bags and valves itself but whether your baseline is stable. If baseline keeps moving, then every experiment around it gives mixed signal.

From my side this helped only on certain coffees, not on every lot. When the coffee is already forgiving, setting reorder points for bags and valves does not change much. On difficult lots the effect is clearer.

I disagree a little with people who say setting reorder points for bags and valves is only a small detail. Small detail alone maybe yes, but several small details together can move the cup a lot.
