There are countless coffee lovers around the world. Whether in waking up as the sun rises, trying to stay up in the office, or merely keeping warm in a cold weather, coffee is there. Many variants and flavors to choose from are already available in the market.

Many coffee drinkers would probably prefer decaffeinated drinks.

There is also gourmet coffee which is combined with both natural and synthetic spices, such as vanilla, cinnamon and others during the roasting process. These coffee drinks sure taste good, however, many chemicals and artificial flavors could be used throughout its processing and production which could be harmful to one's health and the environment.

At that point, the beans have changed its color between yellowish to light brown shade while its size has doubled. There is still a bit of sourness in its flavor, yet in this kind of roasting is when the original flavor of coffee beans is tasted the most. On the other hand, medium roasting could be completed from nine to eleven minutes. The coffee beans start to shrink in size and its color is also becoming darker. It comes with a sweet taste like milk chocolate because the sugary content of the coffee has also came out. In dark roasting, the coffee beans are further heated until twelve to thirteen minutes to let all its sugar develop. The coffee beans are burned, thus provide a smoky and rich tasting coffee. When the roasting process reaches until fourteen minutes, the coffee beans will be appropriate for making espresso coffee with a strong smoky flavor.
