If you weigh by volume, both will contain roughly the same amount.

Dark Roast

A dark roast is a form of coffee that has been roasted longer than light roasted beans. This allows the coffee to develop an even more complex flavor profile.

Washed Coffee

The coffee beans that are washed go through a process referred to as "wet processing." After the process is completed the cherries, they are pulverized and then soaked in water tanks to soften the mucilage that covers them.

This allows washed-coffees to express a great deal of terroir, and the typicity of a varietal. This is different from natural processed coffees that can develop distinct flavors from the pulpy fruit that surrounds the beans.

After the mucilage is removed, the beans can be dried by the beans in large tanks of hot water (as with the washed method), or by spreading them on raised beds, patios or terraces and rotating them frequently. This is done until seeds have a moisture content of between 10-12 percent.

Roasting is the last step. As the roasting process progresses the temperature inside the bean will increase, and crackling sounds can be heard. This is when the vapors begin to penetrate the outer shell of the bean. This is known as the first crack.

Once this has happened then the beans can be enjoyed. Light roasts taste fresh and fruity since they haven't been cooked long enough to allow the oils to develop. Medium roasts are more bready and have a deeper more pronounced flavor, because they've been cooked for a longer time.
