Light Roast Arabica Coffee Beans

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

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

Light Roast

A light roast is a type of coffee that has been lightly roasted in order to preserve the natural flavor of the beans. The name suggests that these kinds of coffees tend to be lighter in body than dark roasts, and can be consumed with a variety of methods of brewing like drip, french press, pour over, and espresso. Light roasts are generally characterized by fruitier and brighter flavor notes and may highlight the qualities of a coffee's source more than darker roasted styles.

This is particularly relevant when working with micro lot or single-estate coffees. This level of roast can assist in bringing out subtle and complex flavors that are often lost during roasting in dark. No matter what your preference is, all roast levels produce exceptional and delicious coffees.

Light roasts also have a crisp acidity and mellow flavor. This is why these coffees can give you energy and a fresh boost without the heavy feeling that is associated with dark roasts. This is why they're a great choice for those who wish to start your day with a little more energy and a refreshing taste.

There is some truth to the belief that a lighter roast contains more caffeine than a darker roast. This is a little false because 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 is heavier). If you weigh by volume, both will contain roughly the same amount.

The key to a successful light roast is in the roasting process. This is why it is important to work with an experienced roaster, as poorly executed light roasts could have a strong burnt, or bitter taste that can overwhelm the other qualities that are desirable to the coffee. We love to work with small, family-owned roasters who are committed to quality.

Medium roast arabica coffee beans are heated for a lesser amount of time and at lower temperatures than dark roasts. The beans reach 385°F and then begin to pop (this is referred to as the first crack). The beans will be a light brown and have no oil on the surface.

The coffee that is roasted to this degree retains many of the original coffee beans' distinctive aroma and taste. This includes fruity and floral aromas and flavors that are native to the origin region. Lightly roast beans also have a brighter acidity and a smooth body.

Depending on the beans you use, a medium roast can have flavors like caramel, chocolate and even hints of spice. It's important to note that these flavors will be less intense in a medium roast than they would be in a lighter roast as the beans have been roasted longer.

Apart from the richness and intensity of coffee that is dark roasted, medium-dark flavored coffee can have a heavy bittersweet taste that may make it unpalatable for certain palates.

Dark Roast

A dark roast is a form of coffee that has been roasted longer than light roast beans. This lets a more intricate flavor profile to be developed. This produces a coffee with a rich, bold flavor and less acidity compared to a light-roasted beans. This kind of coffee is perfect for those who are looking for an intense coffee to kick off their day.

Dark roasted coffee has a distinct brown color and oily surface, giving it its signature rich and classic diner style taste. The roasting process used for this kind of coffee is what makes it so distinct, and it is important to choose a quality coffee that has been roasted properly to enjoy the best experience.

It is essential to roast a dark-roasted coffee until the beans begin to crack. This is the first indication that the beans have been properly roasted and that they are ready to be brewed. Dark-roasted coffee also requires to have a balanced taste and mouthfeel.

The most important thing to do when searching for the best dark roasted coffee is the highest quality beans that have been roast at the perfect temperature. This allows the distinctive and exotic characteristics of the beans to shine through without being overwhelmed by an over-roasted flavor.

In addition to the roasting level, it is important to look at the source of the beans as well as where they were cultivated to determine the most suitable dark roasted coffee. For example, some regions have a certain sweetness that is better suited for dark roasting and other regions have an incredibly complex and rich flavor that can stand up to the intensity of a dark-roasted bean.

It is important to remember that the darker the roast, the more caffeine you'll find in your coffee. This is because the coffee beans are exposed to a greater amount of heat which will cause more caffeine to be released. Additionally, the darker a roast is more prominent the bitterness will be.

Washed Coffee

Washed coffee beans have gone through a process known as "wet processing." After picking, the cherries are de-pulped and then fermented in tanks of water to soften the sticky mucilage covering the beans. The process is followed by a rinse to remove the remaining pectin, then drying. This method is extremely popular among specialty roasters. It's a great option for those who want a clean, crisp, acidic taste profile with moderate sweetness and body.

Different flavor compounds are produced depending on the length of the fermentation as well as the amount of mucilage left on the seeds. They can be fruity, floral, earthy or the nutty note. This is what allows washed coffees to convey a variety of terroir and the typicity of a varietal. Natural processed coffees can develop unique flavors due to the pulp of fruit surrounding the bean.

After the mucilage has been removed the beans are dried by being soaked in large tanks of water (as in the washed method) or laid out on patios or beds raised in the sun, and turned regularly. This is done until seeds have an moisture content of between 10-12%.

The final step is roasting. As the roasting happens the temperature inside the bean will rise and a cracking sound will be heard. This is when vapors start to penetrate the outer wall of the bean. This is known as the first crack.

When this happens, the roasted beans are now ready to be enjoyed. Light roasts will taste fresh and fruity since they haven't been cooked long enough for the oils to develop. Medium roasts will be more bready, and will have an intense and richer flavor because they've been roasted longer. Roasts that are darker are often very chocolaty or even smoky, depending on how dark they've been roasted.
