How to judge a cup of coffee? (Please read comment)?!
I was reading an article "Comparing Caffeine in Coffee Drinks" At the bottom of the article was a link "How to Judge a Cup of Coffee"!. However, a new window appearing said "We're sorry - the document you requested was not found"!. Then suggested going to another site to possibly find what I am looking for!. Which, of course had noting listed about coffee or caffeine!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

First; unless you're cupping for a living, the only thing to judge is if you like it!.
I roast my own so I can try variations of the same bean!. Lighter roasts allow the flavor of the beans to show through!. Medium roasts are sweeter (sugar more caramelized), but original flavor still there!. Dark roasts loose most of the origin flavor, but become richer!. Too dark & beans are just burnt!. I like mine in the medium range!.
Kona coffee is recommended in the darker range, but I still like it best in the medium/dark range!.
SweetMarias!.com has some great information on beans & roasting!. It's where I get my beans!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

What did you want to know!? The more that a coffee bean is roasted, the less caffeine it will have!. So, double-roasted beans have less caffeine (espresso has LESS caffeine, per equal amount of coffee, than a regular cup of coffee) !.!.!.!.!. Go to the website for California Coffee Roasters (that's where I buy my coffee)!. They have full descriptions on all types of coffee beans, roasts and grinds!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
