Italian Roast is much darker and oilier than a French Roast and often preferred in Italy. If a coffee is described as being a French or Italian roast, it isnât because they were grown or roasted in these countries, just that the roaster utilized this generalized roast level for that blend of beans.
Yes it is true that darker roasted coffee beans have less caffeine than lighter roasted beans. Itâs also true that it takes more beans to roast a dark roast than a light. But since most of the mass loss in the roasting process is water, they both have relatively the same amount of caffeine.
