Which coffee roast is tastiest?
If you enjoy the classic, bitter taste of coffee, you may prefer dark roast coffee. If you want a sweeter coffee, medium roast beans are a good choice, while light roast beans will showcase the unique flavors and aromas of your coffee beans best. Usually, coffee roast types (levels) are identified by their color and the temperature reached during the roasting process. There are four main roast levels : light, medium, medium-dark and dark. Although some coffees are naturally darker or lighter than others, these are convenient ways to categorize roasts.

What is the golden rule of coffee?
Thankfully, coffee experts around the world have figured out a tried-and-true, gold standard ratio: 1:17. It stands for 1 gram of coffee for every 17 grams of water. If you want a “stronger” cup of coffee, adding more coffee beans may not actually help. Instead, opt for a darker roast for more full-bodied flavor. Quick answer: The 80/20 rule for coffee, often mentioned in the context of a coffee guide, suggests that 80% of coffee’s flavor comes from the bean and its origin, while 20% depends on the brewing process. This principle emphasizes the importance of high-quality beans for achieving superior coffee flavors.
