Ground Coffee

Brewing ground coffee at home is a great way to enjoy a fresh, delicious cup of joe.

The flavor of the coffee you buy will depend on a variety of factors, including how much the beans are roasted. Coffee roasts are usually described as "light," "medium" and "dark." Light roasts are generally lighter bodied and milder. They have higher acidity and no obvious roast flavor. In medium roasts, the sugars have been further caramelized and the acidity has been muted. The coffee has higher body and some roast flavor. Dark roasts have the strongest roast flavor, the lowest acidity and the most bitterness.

Roast level also affects caffeine content: light roasts have the most caffeine and dark roasts have the least. However, the amount of caffeine in your cup of coffee is also affected by other factors, including how coarsely or finely the coffee is ground and how you brew it.
