Long-term home placed more than two or three different varieties of coffee beans, if added to the company, the total should be maintained at about five or six packets. With a pack of about 200g, each cup of coffee with 20g beans, such an amount to two more than three months to complete, and then look at the best period of coffee beans is actually one month (the package on the half-year period you can ignore), it seems that it is not the best user storage plan.

However, my habit of drinking coffee is the same as my attitude towards reading or being a person. I am a little greedy and don't want to limit myself to a single option. Since I can only brew a cup of coffee a day, it is even more important for me to have such a choice to change the taste. Some people only use coffee as a pick-me-up, and the liquid in the mouth is just a process to achieve higher efficiency, but for me, coffee is the goal itself, the magic weapon that allows me to feel life and slow down the day. To keep the freshness of brewing every day, the perfect coffee bean option is indispensable.

A selection of individual beans that must be stocked on the shelf includes Ethiopia Yegashev, an entry-level bean that is generally heavy in acidity and has a distinct berry fruity or citrus flavor such as orange or lemon, sometimes with floral notes. The first time I drank that cup of beans, the brewing method was so good that I wanted to scream out…I could really drink the strawberry flavor clearly. It was actually a coffee that was very close to the juice. Every time I find a new coffee shop, I first try to drink Ye Jia, a bit like ordering dry fried beef river in a tea restaurant. I can try the kung fu of the shop in one bite. Sometimes friends who want to "guide" coffee try to drink single-item coffee, but also order easy-to-eat Ye Jia, the hit rate is almost 99%, even the Doo Manager of the children's tongue around me also accepted single-item coffee, yeah.

Another favorite of mine, Kenyan beans, is the flavor you want to drink when you wake up feeling more "grown up." The most distinctive feature is the aftertaste with plum, even like red wine. Produced on the African plateau, it is a coffee bean with great personality and weight because of the acidity of the geological soil. Maybe it is because of that kind of wine feeling, every time I drink it, I always feel like I have become a little more mature (haha), of course, it is psychological effect, but if you ask yourself that your taste is more mature, you might as well try it, maybe you will fall in love.

In recent years, I have also enjoyed drinking Panama beans. The beans produced in this small country can climb to my top three because of the unique tea feeling. Coffee with jasmine or Earl Grey tea flavor is surprisingly light. I never thought that this bitter drink could have so many different levels and variations. Personal preference for high acidity, lighter taste coffee beans, the above three are, of course, there are other strong, with caramel, chocolate or nut flavor beans, such as Colombia, Nicaragua, Brazil and other regions, like a solid taste of most people will choose these categories.

Coffee beans have a variety of personalities, different coffee beans have different flavors, and in fact, in addition to the origin and variety of beans, how to treat (sun/water washing), how to bake, but also let beans embark on different personality journey important factors, this part will be shared next time.
