Coffee originated in Ethiopia in Africa. In this ancient land, it has given birth to magical fruits that have affected the world to this day. When people in many parts of the world do not know what coffee is, the Agol people in Ethiopia are already growing and drinking coffee. Ethiopia is still the producer of many top coffee beans, and Yegashifi is one of them.

If a person likes high-quality coffee, but has never drunk Yega Xuefei, then he is certainly not a real coffee lover. If a person likes fine coffee, even if he can't accept its taste, he will certainly try to like it. This is the charm of Yejasuefei. Regular coffee drinkers must have more or less heard others say that Yega Xuefei, a lot of coffee friends, have started coffee for the first time. Maybe he came into contact with Yega Xuefei.

Although the Ethiopian Yejasuefi Coffee is petite, it is gentle, delicate and sweet. It is most appropriate to use the phrase "coffee entrance, flowers in full bloom" to describe Yega Xuefei. Now Yega Xuefei Coffee has become synonymous with Ethiopian boutique coffee. Do you know the difference between washing and sunbathing?

Raw beans are treated differently.

Yega Xuefei water washing method: use the method of washing and fermentation to remove the skin, pulp and mucous membrane, and wash the coffee beans until they are smooth and clean. after washing, the coffee beans are still wrapped in the pericarp with a moisture content of 50%, and the moisture content must be reduced to 12%, otherwise they will continue to be mellow, moldy and rotten, and the better treatment is to use sunlight to dry, although it will take 1 ~ 3 weeks, but It has a very good flavor and is very popular.

The washing method has a good mellow taste, a high aroma and a lively sour taste. Washed coffee beans are graded into Gr-1 and Gr-2, and the smaller the Arabic numeral is, the higher the grade is. The style of G1 Yega Chefe is distinct, and the flavor of citrus and flowers in the coffee liquid is an irresistible delicacy.

Yega Xuefei sun treatment: the fruit begins the sun-drying process without treatment after picking, which is the oldest existing treatment method. The drying process usually lasts about 4 weeks, and the treatment method must be very rigorous. To ensure that the coffee does not lose any flavor, the sun-dried beans have a complete natural mellow flavor, gentle aroma and more gum.

The sun grades are Gr-1, Gr-3, Gr-4 and Gr-5, and the same highest grade of G1sun Yega Chevy is fruity. Opening the freshly roasted G1 Sun Yega Chevy coffee bag can subvert people's original understanding of coffee. Only those who have tasted the highest grade Sun Yega Sheffield will believe that coffee is a kind of fruit.

Coffee beans look different.

Generally, the raw beans washed in water are turquoise. After baking, there are more silver skins of Yejia Xuefei, and there are wrinkles in the appearance, while the raw beans in the sun are yellowish green, the silver skins of Yega Xuefei in the sun are less, and the appearance is smooth.

Coffee beans taste different.

Sun Yega Chuefei has a hint of fermented wine, the bitter taste will be heavier, the taste will be more intense, honey sweet, cocoa rhyme with a hint of spices, body thick and lasting, rich texture and unique soft floral aroma brushed your taste buds, leaving an endless aftertaste, washed Yega Chuefei acidity will be brighter, like citric acid, taste more delicate, citrus flavor is more obvious, the latter part of some black tea. Both will have a sour taste, like lemon and citrus fruits.

Beans with such a gorgeous flavor are certainly not suitable for deep baking, so the shallow slow roasting method of this coffee can best reflect its round and sweet, rich flower and fruit aromas.

Hard bean coffee is coffee that grows at a relatively high altitude, while coffee grown at a lower altitude is generally considered soft bean coffee. Higher altitude and lower temperature make the fruit ripen more slowly, while coffee beans that form harder and less pores are called hard beans that grow above 1200 meters above sea level.

The absorption capacity of hard beans to heat energy (the reaction to heat energy) is better than that of soft beans, so the development of its flavor is more complete. On the other hand, hard beans have high density and high water content, which also hinders the heat transfer. Use more firepower and higher bean temperature when baking.

Baking method: stretch the baking time longer, so adjust the firepower when the dehydration is complete, bake to the maximum when it explodes, and develop 1: 39 / 48 / 39 / 39 / 39 / 39.

In the 8th minute, ugly wrinkles and black markings appear on the bean table, and the smell of toast obviously changes to the smell of coffee, which can be defined as a prelude to an explosion. At this time, listen clearly to the sound of the explosion point, start to explode at 9: 07 ", adjust the firepower to 70 degrees, and the throttle is fully open (the firepower should not be so small as to be free of bursting sound). Put the pot at 194 degrees.
