Collection: Light roast coffee beans

What are light roasted coffee beans?

Lightly roasted coffee beans are roasted for a shorter period of time and at a lower temperature than medium or dark roast beans. This preserves the natural flavours of the coffee bean, which results in a fresh, fruity and often slightly sour flavour.

Lightly roasted beans have a lighter color, contain little oil and have a higher caffeine content than dark roasted beans. Also as espresso, light roasted beans can give a surprisingly fruity and complex flavor.

Why choose lightly roasted coffee beans?

Lightly roasted coffee beans are perfect for coffee lovers who enjoy a pure and refined coffee experience. Because these beans are heated for a shorter period of time, the complex flavour notes of the origin are better preserved. This means that you can taste the unique characteristics of the coffee, such as citrus, berries, flowers or chocolate, much more clearly.

In addition, lightly roasted coffee beans contain more natural acids, which provides a fresh and lively taste experience. In contrast to dark roasted coffee, where the taste of the roasting process dominates, here you really taste the essence of the bean and the region in which it was grown.

Which brewing method is best for light roasted coffee beans?

Because light roast coffee has subtle and complex flavors, it is best used with slower brewing methods. Light roast beans are also an interesting choice for espresso. They provide a fresh and complex flavor profile, but require careful grinding and extraction to get the right balance.
