The most famous producers of coffee in Asia are the islands of Malaysia: Sumatra, Java and Gary Mann. Sumatra Manning coffee from the Indonesian island of Sumatra is the most famous.

Mantenin coffee is produced in Lake dopa in Sumatra Province and Lake Tawa in Aceh. This is the famous "Shuangman of the two lakes". What the Shuangman of the two lakes have in common is that they are both thick and mellow. the difference is that the mantenin of Lake dopa is more stuffy, low and even has the smell of immortal grass, while Mantenin of Lake Tawa is more acidic, sometimes with a smell of cedar or wood.

Gayo Mountain Coffee has a unique taste and high quality. Coffee beans have a strong, unique herbal flavor, a slight honey flavor, moderate and well-balanced acidity. Gayo Mountain Coffee is in line with Blue Mountain Coffee as the world's two most famous coffee!

The coffee named Gayo comes from the local Gayo tribe. They all live in the mountains of central Aceh province, near freshwater Lake Tawar, and people are known as "Gayo" mountains. In the Dutch colonial era, coffee plantations dominated by large estates, but now the vast majority of the local Islamic tribes. They left primitive life to patriarchal tribes; they still followed traditional farming methods. Coffee production comes from about 90% of these small farmers. Due to the small planting area in the mountain area and the small living conditions of farmers, coffee mainly grows manure and farm manure, and the amount of fertilizer is small. Therefore, Aceh Coffee produces mainly organic coffee.

The most famous producers of coffee in Asia are the islands of Malaysia: Sumatra, Java and Gary Mann. Sumatra Manning coffee from the Indonesian island of Sumatra is the most famous.

To sum up the flavor of the wet planer, apart from those slight differences, we generally think that the wet shaved bean has the taste of soil, tobacco and chocolate, and the sour taste is called "low acid", mellow and dull.

Low acid comes from a shorter, weaker fermentation process and a longer drying time, if you forget the wet plane fermentation, turn back and have a look. As for the "earthy taste" of wet shaved beans, there are different opinions. Some people say that this is related to the beans selected in the wet planing-related producing areas (Tim & Kadim: with Rob pedigree), some people say that this is the result of the organic interaction between raw beans and the outside world, and some even say that it is because there are too many defective beans! Of course, there are a lot of...

There are many sources of defective beans in the wet planing method. First of all, there must be some natural defects in the coffee fruit, and another defect contributor is the shelling part, the corrosion of the wet shell beans during transportation, the damage of sunlight and moisture to the naked raw beans, and one point, the uneven drying speed brought by irregular weather also reduces the flavor. Why did Manning choose by hand so many times? Of course there's a reason for that.

Finally, let's summarize the characteristics of various ways of handling raw beans:

Acidity: washing > semi-washing > honey treatment > wet planing > solarization.

Sweetness: sun > honey treatment > wet planing > semi-washing > washing.

Production risk: wet planing / solarization > washing / honey treatment > semi-washing

Equipment cost: washing / semi-washing > honey treatment / wet planing > solarization

Amount of water used: water washing > semi-washing > honey treatment / wet planing method
