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

"Robusta" coffee usually has an ordinary, rigid and pungent flavor, and because the vast majority of robusta around the world are grown in low-altitude areas (author's note: as of May 2008, only India has rare high-altitude, high-quality, washed Robusta coffee beans). The flavor produced by different regions and different climates is not very different, relatively lack of personality. When unbaked, it smells like raw peanuts, and the taste of cheap robusta coffee beans is usually between "wheat tea" (light baking) and "rubber tire flavor" (deep roasting). It is difficult to show a meticulous flavor.

Robsta species (scientific name Coffee Robusta Linden)

Robusta coffee beans are generally used for instant solution because they extract twice as much coffee liquid as Arabica.

The caffeine content is 3.2%, more than twice that of Arabica, and 1.5% of Arabica.

How to tell the robusta coffee beans?

It's not in the book. I think there are three points worth noting. The first is the size, shape and shape, and the second is the grain in the middle and edge of the bean.

The third is cooked beans. Eat them directly and taste them.

You will be surprised at the thick and rich taste of Crema, which is bright and rich in malt tea and maltose!

The flavor is sweet and dry, and the flavor after adding steamed fresh milk to make cappuccino and latte is even more a surprise! Without adding a grain of sugar to show sufficient sweetness, it will make your friends and relatives envy after drinking, and will often ask you if you have added sugar in the noodles!

Not only the fat (Crema) is rich, but also the flavor is very dry!
