I am not a coffee historian or even very knowledgable, but I thought that light roasting is the more traditional (even ancient) way of making coffee and that the roasting has gotten darker over time. Not so?
- AdmiralAsshat 3y ago"Ancient" coffee roasting was probably very uneven. The beans were often just roasted in a skillet over a fire, not unlike toasting pine nuts. If you've ever tried toasting pine nuts on a stove, you've gotta be very careful with the heat control and keep the nuts moving frequently, or else you'll have some that are still blonde and some that are bordering on burnt.
