This coffee’s roasted in our espresso style — but that doesn’t mean you need to brew it as espresso. You can make it however you like — espresso, filter, moka pot, AeroPress or whatever you enjoy. We roast it a touch darker than we would a filter roast to caramelise the sugars and bring out smooth chocolatey and nutty flavours that cut beautifully through milk.

When you add milk the natural sweetness, fat and proteins tend to soften acidity and highlight caramelised flavours. That’s why lighter filter roasts can sometimes taste a bit sharp or sour with milk — they’re simply not built for it. Espresso roasts being more developed balance this out. The deeper caramelisation creates toffee and cocoa notes that blend harmoniously with milk’s creaminess while a hint of gentle bitterness adds that satisfying ‘coffee punch’ in your flat white or cappuccino.

If you prefer your coffee black this roast will still give you a full-bodied rich cup with plenty of depth and sweetness. For a lighter fruitier experience you might enjoy exploring our filter range instead.

Roast Details

Roast Style Espresso
?
Filter roasts are lighter with a shorter development time, designed to highlight clarity, acidity, and fruit-driven complexity — perfect for black coffee and filter methods. These roasts can also be used for espresso, especially if you enjoy brighter, more vibrant shots. Try longer brew ratios or turbo shots to tame acidity and bring out sweetness. Espresso roasts, on the other hand, are developed further to encourage deeper caramelization and Maillard reactions, producing richer, chocolatey, and nutty flavours that shine in milk and offer a fuller-bodied espresso. We don't usually roast omni (one roast for all brew methods) — in our experience, it tends to be a compromise that's average at both. But occasionally, for larger lots or versatile blends, we may do an omni roast to suit both black and milk drinkers.
Roast Level Light
?
This is a more accurate reflection of the actual roast level rather than internal & external colour readings and is based off roasting weight loss %. <11% is Nordic ultra-light; 11-13% is Light with balanced acidity and sweetness; 13-16% is Medium for rounded body and caramel; 16-20% is Dark for rich, chocolatey and intensity; 20%+ is Starbucks/Italian for bold, smoky depth. Some would say the higher the %, the 'stronger' the coffee.
Roasting Weight Loss 12.8%
?
Coffee roasting weight loss refers to the significant reduction in the mass of green coffee beans during the roasting process, typically ranging from 9% to 25% depending on the roast level. This phenomenon primarily occurs due to the evaporation of moisture, which constitutes about 9-13% of the bean's initial weight
External Agtron: 61
?
This refers to the surface colour of the whole roasted bean, but it's not always a reliable indicator of roast level - Some of our most vibrant and lightly roasted coffees like our Ecuadorian Sidra, may appear medium-dark (Agtron 50–60) due to their surface color, yet are in fact light roasts with minimal development time. Surface colour can be affected by the original green colour, bean type, density and moisture - so don't judge a bean by its exterior.
Roasted On: Roest P3000
?
The ROEST P3000 is a compact powerhouse that redefines what’s possible in small-batch production roasting. With the ability to roast 1–3 kg batches in under 7 minutes and crank out over 25 kg per hour, it delivers serious output without demanding a full-time operator. Automation handles everything from preheating to cooldown, with between-batch protocols ensuring consistent conditions roast after roast. Its slim footprint and lightweight build make it perfect for roasteries where space is tight but precision and efficiency are non-negotiable. What truly sets the P3000 apart is its unmatched control and data richness. It features more than 18 sensors—bean, exhaust, drum, humidity, pressure, and even a first-crack microphone—paired with PID-controlled airflow, drum speed, and temperature. A built-in bean camera offers live visual feedback, eliminating the need for a trier and paving the way for future AI enhancements. Whether you’re dialing in new coffees or replicating profiles at scale, the P3000 brings the lab-level accuracy of the ROEST sample roaster into full production—effortlessly and repeatably.

Taste Profile

Tasting Notes: Chocolate, dried fruit & citrus notes
Cupping Score: 84.0
?
Our coffees are scored using the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) protocol by Q Grader–certified cuppers. A score of 80+ qualifies as specialty grade — clean, well-processed, and high quality. 80–84 coffees are more common and often used in blends. 85–87 are brighter, more complex, and better suited for high-quality filter brews. 88–90 are exceptional, and 90+ coffees are ultra-rare, often Cup of Excellence (COE) winners — the best in the world.
Suitable To Go With Milk?: Yes
?
Some of our light roasted filter coffees are bursting with bright, fruity acidity—think citrus, berries, or tropical notes. While these flavours shine on their own, they don't always play well with milk. The acidity can clash with milk's natural sweetness and creaminess, sometimes creating sour or chalky flavours.
Decaffeinated? No

Bouddi Blend - When is peak freshness?

Light Roast - Roasted on Roest P3000

Colombia 67% · Ethiopia 33%

Bouddi Blend is the most modern and expressive of our blends. Roasted lighter than Somersby and Darkside, with a similar development to Coastal, it prioritises clarity, sweetness, and aromatics over brute strength.

Colombia brings structure, caramel sweetness, and balance, while Ethiopia lifts the cup with fruit and floral notes. This blend rewards good technique, especially as espresso or black coffee, but can be slightly harder to extract due to its lighter development.

If you enjoy brightness, nuance, and a cleaner finish, Bouddi is where to look.

Best for: Espresso, long black, filter
Style: Bright, modern, expressive

Coastal Blend

Brazil Arabica · Uganda Arabica · Vietnam Robusta

Coastal Blend is the foundation of Central Coast Coffee. Designed to be approachable, reliable, and easy to extract, it balances sweetness, body, and crema in a way that works across homes, cafés, and offices.

Brazil provides chocolate sweetness and structure, Uganda adds depth and spice, and a small portion of Vietnam Robusta brings extra body and a persistent crema. Roasted to a moderate development level, Coastal Blend performs equally well as espresso or black coffee, and is especially forgiving in milk.

If you want a dependable, crowd-pleasing coffee that just works, this is it.

Best for: Espresso, long black, milk drinks
Tasting notes: Milk chocolate, brown sugar, toasted grain, gentle spice
Style: Balanced, classic, easy to extract

Coastal Darkside Blend

Same origin mix as Coastal Blend

Coastal Darkside takes the exact same blend as Coastal and pushes it further into development. Roasted around 2 percent more, just before second crack, this version is built for those who prefer bold, low-acid, full-bodied coffee.

The darker roast amplifies bitterness, smokiness, and mouthfeel while reducing brightness. It excels in milk drinks and traditional espresso styles, delivering a strong flavour presence that holds up under sugar and milk.

If Coastal is your everyday driver, Darkside is its heavier, louder sibling.

Best for: Espresso, milk drinks, stovetop
Tasting notes: Dark chocolate, cocoa powder, molasses, smoky finish
Style: Bold, heavy, low acidity

Somersby Blend

Brazil 70% · Ethiopia 30%

Somersby Blend is our darker, more refined alternative to Darkside. Built on a Brazil-heavy base and roasted to a similar development level, it delivers depth and richness without the aggressive smokiness of Robusta.

Brazil provides chocolate, nut, and caramel tones, while Ethiopia adds just enough fruit character to keep the cup lively. Roasted just before second crack, this blend is smooth, powerful, and satisfying, especially for those who love darker coffee but still want clarity and sweetness.

Think of Somersby as a darker coffee done with restraint.

Best for: Espresso, milk drinks, stovetop
Tasting notes: Dark chocolate, roasted almond, caramelised sugar, subtle dried fruit
Style: Dark, smooth, structured

Roast strength vs roast darkness

A “strong” coffee doesn’t always mean a darker roast.

When coffee is roasted darker, it tastes stronger because bitterness, smoke, and roast flavours become more dominant. That heavy, bold flavour is what most people describe as strength.

But as coffee is roasted darker, something else happens.

What happens as coffee gets darker

As roasting continues:

  • Natural sugars caramelise, then burn

  • Acidity drops

  • Origin flavours fade

  • Oils move to the surface of the bean

  • The coffee becomes heavier, more bitter, and less nuanced

Very dark roasts can taste intense, but they often lose clarity and sweetness. The shiny, oily surface you see on dark beans is a sign that the roast has broken down the bean structure and pushed oils outward.

This is why darker coffee tastes bold and smoky, but not necessarily complex.

So what actually makes a coffee feel strong?

Flavour strength comes from:

  • Roast depth

  • Coffee species, Robusta tastes stronger than Arabica

  • Brew ratio and extraction

Caffeine, on the other hand:

  • Is higher in Robusta than Arabica

  • Changes only slightly with roast level

  • Is more affected by dose than darkness

In other words, a coffee can taste very strong while containing less caffeine, and a lighter coffee can still pack a serious caffeine hit.

How we think about roasting

We roast each blend to suit its purpose.

Some are pushed darker for body and boldness. Others are roasted lighter to preserve sweetness, clarity, and origin character. Strength on our bags refers to flavour intensity, not how much caffeine you will get.

If you want help choosing, our blend comparison table is the easiest place to start.

What this means for our blends

  • Jacks Magic 
    Tastes the strongest due to it being roasted the darkest.

  • Coastal Darkside
    Next strongest and also contains higher caffeine due to its Robusta content.

  • Somersby Blend
    Tastes dark and bold, but is 100% Arabica, so caffeine is lower than Darkside despite a similar roast depth.

  • Coastal Blend
    Balanced strength, with moderate caffeine from its Robusta component.

  • Bouddi Blend
    Bright and lighter tasting, but still contains plenty of caffeine. It just doesn’t taste as heavy.

How does my coffee come packaged?

Despite some of our product images looking very fancy our coffee is packaged into a plain brown paper foiled lined bag with a Swiss WIPF degassing valve. This offers superior oxygen and moisture protection. We recommend once you crack the seal you store your coffee in AirScape containers or Weber Workshop Bean Cellars for a single dosing option.
You can also freeze/vacuum seal in small lots, then use straight away once removed from freezer.

We don't have fancy printed bags with ziplocks (more plastic), we save that cost and buy better quality green beans so you can focus on your cup quality instead of fancy marketing and artwork.
