In recent years, Golden Manning has become more and more popular among coffee fans in the international coffee market. There are also many coffee fans who come to Qianjie shops who are attracted to Golden Manning. A few days ago, some coffee fans noticed that the Golden Manning beans on Qianjie Street are particularly large, and there are a lot of horseshoe beans, which are relatively symmetrical and almost flawless. It is very different from the many defective gold Mandenin coffee beans that coffee fans buy elsewhere, so let's talk about how Golden Manning is graded in Qianjie.

Flavor characteristics of gold Mantenin producing area

Gold Manning is produced in Sumatra, Indonesia. Sumatra is the largest island in Indonesia, located near the equator, is a typical tropical rain forest climate, high temperature and humidity, abundant rainfall.

In terms of conditions, it is indeed very suitable for the production of coffee beans, but because of the humid climate and limited water resources, traditional washing or sun treatment cannot be used, so local coffee farmers in Indonesia invented the wet planing method to deal with coffee beans. this has formed Indonesia's unique coffee flavor with herbaceous and earthy flavor.

At the same time, due to the limited altitude suitable for planting Arabica coffee trees in Indonesia, only 25% of the coffee beans produced in Indonesia belong to Arabica, because Arabica can only be grown at high and altitude to have the best flavor, so the remaining 75% are robusta coffee trees that can be grown at low elevations. This means that the quality of coffee fruits in Indonesia is uneven, so Indonesia has set up a grading system according to defective beans in line with the Indonesian coffee market. Classification of Indonesian Mantenin coffee beans

As mentioned in the previous article on the street, Indonesia's Mantenin coffee is graded mainly according to the number of defective beans, supplemented by size. And according to Qianjie, it is understood that Indonesia's requirements for general quality coffee beans are live worm-free, mildew-free and rotten beans, with a maximum moisture content of 12.5%. The impurity rate is less than 0.5%.

The following is the standard of Indonesian Mantenin coffee beans classified according to defects (based on 300g):

Grade Grade standard G1Grade 1 total defects less than 11G2Grade 2 total defects greater than 12 less than 25G3Grade 3 total defects greater than 26 less than 44G4aGrade 4a total defects greater than 45 less than 60G4bGrade 4b total defects greater than 61 less than 80G5Grade 5 total defects greater than 81 less than 150G6Grade 6 total defects greater than 151smaller than 225s

Among them, the Indonesian gold Mantenin grade of Qianjie is G1, and G1 is a very few products, which was specially tailor-made for Japanese trading houses. G1 is a defective bean with a maximum of 3 points in 300 grams.

Pwn Gold Manning

Here in front of the street, we have to talk about the special features of gold mantenin. Coffee fans may have noticed that Sumatran mantenin is divided into many kinds, such as Lin Dong manning, old manning, tiger manning, and so on, of which gold manning is the highest because its coffee fruit is carefully selected beans.

Pwn, which specializes in gold manning, has to go through four manual screenings to remove defective beans and retain the best and most complete coffee beans, which is more stringent than screening G1 coffee beans, which is why pwn's gold mantenin is cleaner and sweeter than other mantenin flavors.

Golden manning coffee variety

At present, pwn has also changed its usual use of Arabica-derived coffee beans to Katim, a hybrid of Arabica and Robusta, which was first developed in 1959 and popularized in Brazil in the 1970s and 1980s. With disease resistance and high yield, it occupies a place in Central and South American coffee varieties. The occasional outbreak of coffee leaf rust crisis in Central and South America has also contributed to Katim's use of coffee beans.

It is characterized by high yield, short plants, dense planting and reddish-brown new leaves. However, due to the rapid maturity and high yield, adequate fertilizer supply and shade must be required, but according to Qianjie, its life is very short, with an average of only ten years.

This shows that pwn is also trying to increase production, and this Katim-based coffee bean flavor Qianjie believes that its flavor is more baked toast and a little more mellow than ever before, thanks to Robusta's genes, but also retains the excellent flavor of the Arabica variety.

The above are the grading standards and flavor characteristics of Golden Manning in Qianjie. Next, Qianjie will teach coffee fans how to avoid bad Mantenin merchants.

Notes when choosing Manning:

1. The largest coffee grower in Indonesia is low-quality robusta (mainly used to make instant coffee with poor flavor; therefore, it is not discussed in the category of boutique coffee), and the annual output of Arabica coffee beans accounts for only 10%. Poor or unprofessional coffee makers will pass off Indonesian Robusta as Manning.

2. The product name has the word "flavor": for example, Manning "flavor", Mamba (Manning & Brazil) "flavor", etc.; in fact, there is not a single mantenin in the ingredient.

3. There are many defects: because of dampness, insect pests, and lack of processing equipment for local coffee farmers in the Toba Lake area. Defective beans are easy to occur in the process of planting, harvesting and handling raw beans. Of course, in addition to cup testing and tasting, having the opportunity to see whole cooked beans (whole beans) and even raw beans is also a good way to ensure quality.

These are Qianjie's tips on how to choose authentic Manning, hoping to help coffee fans.
