Kenya there are two types of coffee farms in Kenya. One is a large plantation covering an area of more than five acres, but the average elevation is low. In the case of Kenyan Coffee, the coffee beans of the large farms are of medium quality. The best Kenya beans come from small farms, most of which are located in the foothills or volcanic slopes above 5,000 to 6,000 feet. Each small farmer has a capacity of only 20 to 70 bags per season and is unable to invest in expensive washing plants, but small farmers are very United. Hundreds or thousands of households are gathered to set up cooperative farms, and the government pays for the construction of washing treatment plants, and the coffee fruits picked by small farmers are sent to cooperative farms for unified processing. First remove the half-ripe or rotten fruit, then peel, ferment, decompose the flesh, remove the coffee beans, then dry and polish, the whole process is supervised by the official Coffee Administration, which ensures the quality of Kenyan coffee. Kenya bean washing processing technology and high standards of quality control, has always been an example of bean-producing countries.

Don't underestimate the small farmers in Kenya, they are just like ants and soldiers, and their overall production capacity is higher than that of large farms, about six to four, which is quite rare in bean-producing countries. Kenyan coffee is widely appreciated by connoisseurs, thanks in large part to small farmers guarding the foothills in order to grow high-quality coffee. In addition, Kenya beans must have a strict grading system. Coffee beans taken out by washing plants are divided into seven grades according to size, shape and hardness, the highest is AA or AA+, followed by AB, PB, C, TT, T. This grading system is similar to Colombia, mainly in terms of particle size and shape, but it does not necessarily have the best flavor. This is what coffee fans should know.
