various roasting levels in coffee are just as important as knowing which single origin you will buy for brewing later. The level of roasting, how to brew and single origin includes 3 important factors that will determine what kind of coffee will come out when brewed. We have previously discussed what happens when the roasting process takes place, here. From that process also will be determined next whether the coffee will be light, medium, or dark. Check out the following differences.
Light roast
For those who love coffee with a texture similar to tea and soft characteristics, light roast is a suitable roaster level. You can check the purchased coffee beans to determine the level. The lightly roasted coffee beans generally will not only look like the "youngest version" of the coffee brown color, but there is also no visible oil luster on the surface of the coffee beans.
Medium roast
The texture is a bit like tea and the level is more "tanned" than light roast. Almost the same as light roast, if you see roasted coffee beans in this level, then we will not find coffee oil that is too obvious in the seeds. But if you try two brewed brewed coffee brew each with light and medium, then you will feel the difference.
Medium-dark roast
Next in the coffee taste spectrum is the medium-dark level. This is the level that will present the body more heavy and more intense on coffee. Roasted beans in this level tend to have the appearance of oil sheen on the surface of coffee beans. When brewed it was already more form a bitter-sweet character that delicious.
Dark roast and beyond
Dark roast coffees (and levels above them are Italian, Viennese or French roast), usually done when the coffee is added to the mixture of milk, sugar and so on into either cappuccino, latte, flat white and so on. It is rare for manual coffee, aka manual brew, which uses this roast level. Dark roast coffee basically barely keeps any character besides burnt and bitter charredness. If there were any original characters left, that too was very little. The advantages of dark roasted coffee is, in my opinion, scattered on the aroma of fragrant and fragrant so brewed with hot water.
