According to experts, the color of coffee beans plays a huge role in the quality of the finished product. In this regard, it is important that the raw materials have brown tones. Thus, ripe coffee beans have a color from green to light brown. Usually the sung depends on the following factors:

- Plantation altitude above sea level;
- Climate, specific area.
As a rule, after roasting, their color changes dramatically. The product darkens when roasted. This procedure improves the taste of the grains, giving them strength and bitterness. In this regard, the product often has several degrees of roasting, which should be taken into account when choosing the type of coffee for yourself.
