Most home roasters have better things to spend their money on, namely more coffee beans.
But, like professional roasters, they also need to be able to articulate roast color levels to other roasters or for their own roasting logs. So I decided to make a web color chart using seven batches of distinctly roasted coffee. Viewing distinct roast colors is not ideal for a computer monitor. Everyone has different numbers of colors viewable on their screen and their brightness levels might vary as well. The colors you see on your screen may vary slightly from what I see.
