All About Coffee Roasting

Indus Coffee | 10th May, 2018

Coffee roasting involves a whole lot of science, and if you're up for some reading on coffee roasting, this blog is recommended for you:

What Actually Happens When Coffee Beans Are Roasted

Before roasting, green coffee beans are soft, with a fresh “grassy” smell and little or no taste. It is the process of roasting that brings out the aroma and flavour that is locked inside the green coffee beans. As the beans get roasted the chemical and physical properties of the green coffee beans are transformed. However, during this process, the beans are kept moving, to ensure they don't burn.

Roasted beans weigh less because the moisture has been roasted out. They are easy to bite, ready to be ground and brewed.

Coffee Roast Levels

The most common way to describe coffee roast levels is by the colour of the roasted beans, ranging from light to dark (or extra dark).

Many coffee buyers assume that the strong, rich flavour of darker roasts indicates a higher level of caffeine, however, the truth is that light roasts actually have a slightly higher concentration.

Moreover, there is nothing like a perfectly roasted coffee. It is a personal choice that is sometimes influenced by national preference or geographic location.

Coffee Roasting at Indus

Roasters have to take a lot into consideration when roasting beans — everything from density to the altitude that the coffee was grown at to the ambient air temperature of the roasting facility.

That's why; Indus Coffee has installed a Turbo Roaster with the latest technology for fast roasting of coffee for good taste and aroma. Both Arabica and Robusta are roasted separately for optimum roasts and blended thereafter as per the consumer/market requirements.

The Turbo Roaster is fully automatic and degree of roast is controlled through PLC roast after roast for uniform roasting.

Indus produces the best soluble coffee according to the customized specifications and also internationally recognized standards. With complete attention to detail to coffee given at every stage, and with the right knowledge and experience, the team makes an effort to bring out the optimal taste and flavour in coffee.
