The Beauty of Medium Roast K-Cups

The Beauty of Medium Roast K-Cups

 

Medium. It’s a word that means average. Moderate. Mediocre. None of these words elicit excitement. In fact, they’re rather boring. But medium roast coffee is here to take back the word. Medium roast coffee is anything but ordinary.

It’s not light roast. It’s not a dark roast. It’s a just-right roast. This is the cup of coffee Goldilocks would have chosen. So for your morning grind, choose the grounds that are more spectacular than the name suggests.

What Makes It Medium Roast?

Whether coffee is light, medium or dark roast doesn’t depend on the beans, but on the roasting process. In general, the longer or hotter coffee beans are roasted, the darker the blend becomes. Light roast coffees are like a rare steak, while dark roasts are well-done. Medium roast coffee is the happy middle ground. Which one you like best depends on your personal taste.

Light roast coffee preserves as much of the flavor of the original beans as possible, while dark roast coffee is strongly affected by the roasting process, letting the coffee’s oils come to the surface and increasing the concentration of caffeine. Medium roast beans are in that happy middle ground where you get the best of both worlds.

For Your Office

We aren’t always going to agree on everything. Everyone has their preferences. But medium roast coffee is a great compromise when a big group of people are involved. It’s a safe bet to ensure there’s a little bit of something for everyone.

Those who like strong coffee can brew their cup smaller for a higher concentration of flavor and those who like it lighter can add cream or sugar to sweeten it up. Your whole crew will have a better attitude all day long if there’s always coffee brewing.

For Your Home

You should always have your favorite coffee on hand at home so you can enjoy it whenever you want. But medium roast is a great backup and something convenient to have on hand for times when you have guests.

Whether you spend a lot on premium coffee for yourself that you don’t want to share or your guests simply don’t like your flavor selection, medium roast gives you an alternative offering so they can still enjoy a fresh brew.

For You

Time to switch it up? Tired of the same old thing all the time? Medium roast coffee can be just as robust and flavorful as anything else, and it’s the perfect blend to use for adding your own flavoring or creamer.

Medium roast flavor profiles are subtle enough to drink black and enjoy the smooth texture but bold enough to blend with any flavor of creamer you like and still stand out. You’ll soon find that medium roast is one of your favorites.

Medium roast coffee is an excellent choice for any coffee drinker. It’s versatile and provides a happy medium (see what I did there?) for anyone who loves coffee as a part of their daily routine.
