Follow the caf é (Wechat official account vdailycom) and found that Beautiful Cafe opened a small shop of its own.

The global coffee bean tree species are mainly divided into Arabica and Robusta, of which Arabica coffee beans account for about 65% and 80%.

Arabica coffee has harsh planting conditions, weak disease resistance, high altitude requirements, slow growth, high quality, and fine processing of raw beans. Arabica coffee beans are elegant and slender in shape, with large and uniform grains. Different producing areas have their own different flavor and aroma, rich taste and different taste. It makes it the only coffee among these original species that can be drunk directly and alone, and can be used as a single product or as an Italian blend of coffee.

Robusta coffee has the advantages of strong adaptability, easy planting, fast growth and high yield. in general, the treatment of raw beans is relatively extensive and low quality (there is also a small amount of washed refined robusta). Robusta coffee has a round and rugged shape, relatively small grains, mixed beans, bright and strong flavor, mainly bitter taste, and has a bad rubber taste or mildew smell because of its low level of raw bean treatment. most Robusta beans are not suitable for drinking as a single coffee, and a few Robusta beans are used as Italian ingredients. The proportion is very low (but it does not rule out the fact that very few high-quality Robbosa beans can reach more than half of them). In general, robusta coffee is used in instant coffee (which extracts about twice as much liquid as Arabica), canned coffee, liquid coffee and other industrial coffees. Its caffeine content is much higher than that of Arabica, about 3.2%.

How to eat coffee beans

How do I eat coffee beans? I believe everyone knows that coffee beans are ground into powder and then brewed into coffee to drink. So how are coffee beans made into coffee? I believe that some people do not know, let's take a look at you!

First of all, prepare the materials and tools, which are coffee beans and coffee machine

Next, there are steps to make coffee, as follows:

1. N-style coffee brewing, choose your favorite

Some people like to brew coffee in a convenient and fast American coffee pot, some prefer the romantic elegance of siphon coffee, while others prefer the simplicity and purity of French pressure, the Italian style of mocha pot, or the flavor of hand-brewed coffee. In any case, the cooking method that is suitable for others may not be the most suitable for you, and choosing your own most suitable and favorite coffee brewing method is the first condition to enjoy the fun of DIY coffee brewing.

2. Good coffee should be made in good water

More than 98% of the ingredients in a cup of coffee are water. The importance of water is beyond doubt! If you use bad water to brew coffee, even using the best beans is in vain-because bad water can destroy the best coffee. Even a simple filter kettle can filter out many bad substances for tap water, making the brewed coffee more fragrant, strong and mellow. Like making tea, you need to avoid using distilled water, and if the tap water in your place is of poor quality, using clean mountain spring water is also an ideal way.

3. Coffee beans should not be stingy, enough is enough to taste.

Coffee beans must be used in sufficient portions. Too little coffee powder may lead to insipidity, but not too much at a time. The standard amount of coffee is to brew a cup of coffee (about 180cc) with two flat spoons (about 15 grams) of coffee beans (powder).
