Coffee roasting is a more and more difficult art: roasting is more important than the quality of raw beans.
For professional baristas, please follow the coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style)
Why do I always emphasize baking and even think that baking is more important than raw bean quality? Some people say that it is useless to bake without good raw beans. But you can't find good raw beans without good baking. Or there is no need for good raw beans at all! Because the baking technology is so bad, you can't tell what it is! Since you can't tell, why do you need so many kinds of raw beans?
It must be that your baking skills are so good that raw beans will be selected. Otherwise there is no need for good raw beans at all.
A good raw bean is like a narcissistic orchid in the mountains, without a flower picker who knows the goods, its end is to wither and die, she waits day after day, waiting for a discerning person. Without this person, she will be buried all her life.
History tells us that without roasting, coffee could not have the status of the second largest mass after oil. No baking! Coffee is just a recipe for headaches and refreshments that is popular among African natives. Without baking, coffee may just be a place to catch a glimpse of the wonders of the world or DISCOVERY. Without baking, it would be impossible for Muslims to risk their lives to bring them out of the Arab world, and no Dutch would conquer Indonesia in order to grow coffee. and no French spent a lifetime traveling halfway around the world to bring coffee seedlings to colonies in South America.
If there is no coffee history-[roasting], then there is no coffee at all.
One day in history, coffee was roasted, so there was a rush for coffee to cover the ground, and even France had to use the power of the royal family to get a few saplings from the Dutch. Because the coffee was roasted, the coffee was extremely inconvenient at that time, and the place where a ship had to sail for three or five months was planted. Because the coffee was roasted, it was possible to call a truce and drink coffee when the Etoman Empire attacked Austria.
It's all because of baking, without baking, coffee is nothing at all.
You don't believe me? Would you like to try a stew of coffee ribs? There's no baking!
In all the records of coffee, the earliest appearance of coffee has something to do with salty soup or medicine. It wasn't until the coffee was roasted that sweets were added! Why? Because it tastes too bitter. So the traditional Viennese coffee is a pile of cream, chocolate, mixed with a bunch of sweets, just like the traditional English afternoon tea, the tea is too bitter, so you have to build a large table of dessert biscuits.
Because of the progress in baking technology, people began to know that this is Arab, this is Java, this is alpine, this is flat.
Because the baking technology has improved, people know the difference between instant coffee and ground coffee.
Don't laugh! In the near past, many people would rather drink instant coffee or canned coffee than a cup of freshly brewed coffee that is sour, bitter and astringent.
In fact, there are still many people who would rather drink instant coffee or canned coffee.
At least she knows what brand of coffee she drinks.
Drinking so-called boutique coffee is tantamount to taking a chance.
It's still up to now!
This time, there are fewer stalls and more raw bean merchants at the coffee show. The raw bean market is expected to be lively next year.
What does this mean?
All the raw beans have been selected for you, three times is not enough for four times, the cup test has been done for you, all the incense has been written clearly for you, and the origin report has also been prepared for you, which area, population, geology, altitude, even the big head sticker of the farm owner is printed on it. Even the most expensive roaster in the world you want will help you pass poop.
But what are you baking out?
I can have some raw beans you have, I can also have some roasters you have, and I can also have some top coffee machines you have. What is the most fundamental difference?
Baking!
Baking is an art that becomes more and more difficult to learn.
