Why do coffee beans need to be roasted?

Posted by on 11 Dec 2008 | Tagged as: Other - Food & Drink

Richard asked: What does roasting do for the coffee?
I am thinking about juicing beans, to create a very strong cup of coffee, that does not have any burnt taste.
For this I believe that I should use un-roasted green coffee beans.
I have a lot of ignorance in this area though and need help and suggestions.Leslie

How much caffeine per serving (1/4 of a cup)? The beans are roasted Arabica beans.
