<p>The green coffee beans are, if not spared for home-roasting, are very lightly roast coffee beans. They are known to be very fruity and light when brewed. You may try to use the regular coffee brewing methods but the result may taste too weak. You may also try to brew them for longer periods just like any other "herbal tea". I assume, longer periods in a French-press would do it. You may try different periods to find your desired taste.</p>
