What’s the difference between light, medium, and dark roast coffee?

Light roast coffee is roasted for a shorter duration at lower temperatures, preserving the bean's natural flavors and acidity. It has a lighter color and a more pronounced acidity, with subtle fruity or floral notes. Medium roast coffee strikes a balance between flavor and acidity, with a slightly richer taste and aroma. Dark roast coffee is roasted for a longer time, resulting in a darker color, fuller body, and bold, caramelized flavors, often with less acidity.
