Light Roast ground arabica coffee beans Coffee Beans

Light roast arabica coffee beans are the (relatively) new kid on the block. The art of creating delicious light roasts is a delicate balance of roasting artisanally and multi-origin blend.

The roasting process also eliminates some of the natural sugars in the coffee bean, it also produces new sugars. This is the reason why light roasts are often more sweet than dark roasts.

Light Roast

A light roast is a coffee that has been lightly-roasted to preserve the natural flavors of the beans. Like the name implies, these types of coffees tend to be lighter in body than dark roasts and are able to be enjoyed with a variety brew methods including drip french press, drip over, and espresso. Light roasts tend to have more vibrant and fruity flavors and can emphasize the characteristics of a coffee's source more than darker roasted styles.

Light roasts also have a crisp acidity and mellow taste. These coffees are able to provide you with an energy boost without the heavy feeling associated with dark roasts. These coffees are ideal for those who want to start their day with a little more pep and a fresh taste.

In terms of caffeine, there is some truth to the common belief that a light roast has more caffeine than a dark roast. However this can be false, as it is based on how you weigh your coffee. If you weigh your coffee, a scoop of a light roast will contain more caffeine than the scoop of a dark roast (because it has more mass). However, if you're measuring by volume, the two will have roughly the same amount of caffeine.

The key to a successful light roast is in the roasting process. This is why it is important to work with an experienced roaster, because poorly executed light roasts can have a strong burnt or bitter flavor that can overpower the other desirable qualities of the coffee. This is why we love working with small and family-owned roasters that value the highest quality.

Medium roast arabica beans are heated at a lower temperature and for a shorter period than dark roasts. The beans are heated to 385°F and then begin to pop (this is referred to as the first crack). The beans will be light brown color with no oil on their surface.

This level of roasting keeps the distinctive aroma and flavor notes of the coffee bean in its original form. This includes fruity and floral aromas and flavors that are typical of the region of origin. Coffee beans that are lightly roasted have more acidity and a brighter color, as well as more mellow body.

Depending on the beans used a medium roast can have flavors like caramel, chocolate and even hints of spice. It is important to note that these flavors are more muted when compared to a light roast because the beans have been roasted for longer.

No matter the roast degree, all varieties of coffee have the same amount of caffeine. This is due to the fact that the caffeine content of beans is determined by their natural levels and the amount of oxygen the beans absorb as they are roasted.

Dark Roast

A dark roast is a kind of coffee that has been roasted for longer than light roast beans. This lets a more intricate flavor profile to be created. This creates a cup with an intense, strong flavor and less acidity compared to a light-roasted beans. This type of coffee is ideal for those who prefer a strong cup to start their day.

Dark roast coffee is distinguished with its brown color and oily top, which give it a rich and classic diner-style. This coffee is characterized by the roasting process. It is essential to choose a top-quality coffee that has been properly roasted to get the full flavor.

If a coffee is dark roasted, it needs to be roast until the beans start to crack. This is the first sign that the beans have been properly roasted and that they are ready to be taken into the cup. Dark roasted coffee also needs to have a balanced taste and mouthfeel.

The trick to finding the best dark roasted coffee is selecting beans of high-quality that have been roasted at the ideal temperature. This will allow the unique and exotic qualities of the beans to shine through without being overwhelmed by an over-roasted flavor.

In addition to the roasting level It is also essential to consider the source of the beans and where they were cultivated in order to select the most desirable dark-roasted coffee. Some regions are better for dark-roasted beans due to their sweetness while others have a rich, complex flavor that can match the intensity.

You should also remember that the darker the roast the more caffeine you will find in your coffee. This is because the roasted beans are exposed to a greater amount of heat that results in more caffeine to be released. The darker the roast, the stronger the bitterness.

Washed Coffee

The coffee beans that are washed go through a process referred to as "wet processing." After picking the cherries, they are pulverized and then fermented in tanks of water to soften the mucilage that covers them. The process is followed by a wash to eliminate the remaining pectin and drying. This is a highly popular method for specialty roasters, and a great choice for anyone looking for crisp, clean acidic flavors with moderate amounts of sweetness and body.

Based on the duration of fermentation and the amount of mucilage is left on the seeds, various flavor compounds are produced. These may have floral, earthy, fruity or some nutty notes. This is what allows washed coffees to show a wide range of the terroir and distinctive varietal characteristics. This is in contrast to natural processed coffees that can create distinct flavors from the pulpy fruit that surrounds the bean.

After the mucilage has been removed, the beans are dried either by soaking in large tanks of water (as in the washed method) or laid out on patios or beds raised in the sun, and then turned frequently. This is done until the seeds attain a moisture level between 10 and 12%.

The final stage is roasting. As the roasting happens the temperature inside the bean will rise and a cracking sound is heard. This is the moment when vapors begin to crack through the outer wall of the bean. This is called the first crack.

Once this has happened after which the beans are ready to be enjoyed. Light roasts are fresh and fruity since they haven't been roasted for long enough to develop the oils. Medium roasts will be more bready, and will have an intense and richer flavor because they have been roasted longer. Roasts that are darker can be extremely chocolatey or even smoky depending on how dark they've been roasted.
