Roasting
To achieve our blends we use a roaster of last generation that develops low emissions and has a low environmental impact. The roasting process consists in bringing the coffee beans at very high temperatures of 220 ° with the peak for about 17 minutes. During roasting green coffee it undergoes phases of the important chemical transformations, forming 800 substances responsible of the taste and aroma of the coffee. After an initial phase of the heat exchange the grains begin to assume a golden color and begins to form the toasted perfume.
In the next step, as a result of the increase in temperature, they become gradually darker hand and lose 18–20% of their weight. The density of the grain decreases and begins to lose carbon dioxide (a process that continues even in the days following the roasting), a phenomenon that makes it increase the volume. Once reached the optimum degree of roasting, the coffee is immediately cooled to prevent continuous combustion. Finally, after roasting, the coffee is left to rest for a few days in silos before being packaged for distribution.
