Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the changes of individual chlorogenic acids during the coffee roasting process under authentic commercial conditions. Unique chemical reactions of caffeoylquinic acid (CQA) and dicaffeoylquinic acid (diCQA) isomers were shown in different Coffea species (C. arabica vs. C. canephora), batch sizes (1 kg
