Coffee roasting is the process of transforming raw, green coffee beans into the flavorful, aromatic coffee we know and love. Depending on the roast level, from light to dark, the taste, smell and appearance of the coffee can vary greatly. In the world of specialty coffee, a light roast can bring out the natural flavors of the bean, allowing its unique characteristics to shine through.
