Yes, if by extra bold you mean dark roast. Caffeine is destroyed by heat, so the longer roasting reduces the caffeine content of dark roast coffee (contrary to popular opinion which thinks of dark roast coffee as "stronger" somehow). By the way, the darker roast also burns off many of the subtle flavors in good coffees, which is why a lot of mass-market coffee shops over -roast their coffee, to disguise the poor quality of the beans they are using. Ergo, dark roast coffee means less caffeine, less coffee flavor (but more of that delicious charcoal flavor) and thinner body.

What is the difference between a dark-roast coffee and a light-roast coffee?

Because the caffeine is lost during the brewing process. But also during the brewing process, mass of the coffee bean (coffee seed to be technical about it) is reduced. So if you brew it by WEIGHT and have equal mass, the result will be MORE caffeine in the dark roast but if you brew it by quantity in the scoop, it will have less.

How do you make decafinated coffee?

Coffee roasting companies and large-scale manufacturers typically use supercritical carbon dioxide to extract caffeine from their coffee beans. However, you can reduce your caffeine intake if you drink darker-roast coffees (even though for the most part it will taste very bitter) as dark roast coffees contain a lot less caffeine compared to their lighter-roast counterparts.

What colour is the best coffee bean?

First of all there are two different colors of unroasted coffee beans. There are green coffee beans and there are arabica beans. While arabica type beans are much more popularly sold in stores. This is because arabica coffee is cheaper to produce. When judging a coffee by it's color in terms of roasting there are many different options and flavors. There are light roast, medium roast, full roast, or double roast. The color of these beans get darker the more they are roasted. Medium roast coffees have the most balanced flavors than the lighter or darker roasts so these would typically be more appealing in taste.

Which coffee has more caffeine-espresso or Italian roast?

This is a poorly formed question. I am no expert, but as I understand it, espresso (misspelled in the question) refers to a brewing process, and Italian roast refers to a roasting process. So it's possible to use an Italian roast coffee in both drip or espresso coffee, and it's possible to make espresso using lighter roasts. The lighter the roast, the higher the caffeine content in the beans. Intuitively, this makes sense:roasting burns off the caffeine. This may be somewhat offset by the fact that a darker roasted bean gives up its caffeine more readily in the brewing process. Like I said, I am no expert. Many coffee vendors produce a variety called "Italian roast" and also a variety called "Espresso" or "Espresso Roast." These are marketing terms, and it's the vendor's choice which is roasted longer. An interesting, and related question is "which has more caffeine: espresso or drip coffee?" For the identical amount, variety, and roast of coffee bean, the answer is drip coffee. It's in contact with the beans far longer, so it leaches out more of the caffeine. For one Starbuck's espresso shot vs. a 5 oz. serving of Starbuck's house blend, it's probably about 80 to 100 mg. caffeine for the former, and 115 to 125 mg. for the latter. Remember, though, that people order a Tall (12 oz.) or even Venti (20 oz.) at The Buck, and typically get 2 or 3 espresso shots in their lattes. So it's almost certain that the drip coffee has more caffeine. I have also heard rumors that they have different half lives; that is, an espresso shot will hype you up faster but leave your system faster. I have no idea if it's true. Hope this helps, --A coffee drinker
