The After Effects of Coffee Bean Roasting
Roasting coffee beans is an art form as much as it is a science. Using heat, time, talent and love, the roastmaster crafts the desired aroma, flavor, and body. Whether you brew yourself or buy directly from a store, your coffee has been roasted. The roasting process caramelizes the sugars in coffee beans and forms essential oils for flavor. These sugars and essential oils give coffee its varying flavor and aroma profiles. After roasting, multiple external factors break down and degrade the original flavor you love, robbing you of the roaster’s abilities. Friis has developed a patented way for the problem of how to store coffee and keep it fresh. The only way to truly do this is to let the CO-2 escape while preventing the other flavor robbing elements from getting in and breaking down the grinds. To learn more, go to www.friiscoffee.com
