Introduction to the Variety and Grade of Indonesian PWN Gold Mantenin Coffee beans Flavor characteristics and hand-making requirements of Mantenin producing area in Indonesia

When it comes to Asian coffee beans, there is nothing more familiar than Indonesian Mantenin coffee, which is the most representative Asian bean, and it was once called the most mellow coffee in the world. For those who don't like sour coffee, you can taste this Mantenin coffee. Manning coffee has a strong taste, most of which have the flavor of herbs and dark chocolate. Qianjie thinks that people who like this kind of coffee can't put it down and must order it every time. People who don't like it will scoff and call it brushing water. Many friends who have just come into contact with boutique coffee will be confused by the strong flavor of Mantenin coffee and mistook it for robusta coffee.

Sumatra Mantenin coffee beans

Sumatra Mantenin Coffee is a famous boutique coffee in Indonesia, and it is also a popular coffee bean among the food beans in the front street. Indonesia is located in southeastern Asia, and its coffee history dates back to 1696. Coffee farmers in the Netherlands tried to find a wider place to grow coffee and finally identified the Indonesian island of Java. After 30 years, Indonesia has laid a sufficient foundation in the coffee market. Today, however, the representative of Indonesian coffee is Mantenin from Sumatra, which is not unexpected, because most of the Java coffee sold to Europe came from Sumatra. Manning is from Sumatra. So Sumatra can be said to be an important coffee producer in Indonesia.

What is Golden Manning Coffee?

Manning coffee is the boutique coffee of Indonesia, and gold manning is the boutique of Indonesian boutique coffee. Is that more advanced than Manning? Qianjie told everyone: gold manning is not a grade, but a registered trademark of the Indonesian coffee company N.V. Pawani Medan, referred to as PWN. It was founded in 1957 and is engaged in the export of Indonesian products such as coffee, rubber, cinnamon, cloves and patchouli oil. It is the first Indonesian company to export coffee from North Sumatra, and the first company to make "Mantening Coffee" famous in Japan. Since 1977, the company has focused on the export of premium coffee beans, Sumatran Arabica coffee Manning I and Robusta coffee AP-I II, mainly to Japan, Taiwan and the United States, of which Japan and Taiwan account for more than 95%. In Japan and Taiwan, "PWN" has become synonymous with "quality assurance". Puji holds the trademark of "Golden Golden Mandheling" of Wangni Coffee, so Japanese companies have to register the trademark of "Jinding Gold Top Mandheling" separately.

Since PWN gold manning is a boutique coffee, the price will naturally be higher than that of ordinary manning. In order to get a good price for their Mantenin coffee beans, some merchants label "Golden Manning" for sale, and do not indicate whether they are from PWN. Qianjie Coffee currently sells gold manning coffee beans from PWN. PWN gold Mantenin coffee beans will be hand-selected at least three times after harvest and drying to ensure that the specifications of coffee beans are more than 18 and there are less than 3 defective beans (300g raw bean samples), belonging to the highest grade G1. PWN is dark green in color and is a neatly shaped flat bean.

Golden manning coffee variety

The gold manning of Qianjie Coffee season is produced in the GAYO Mountains in Aceh, North Sumatra. The variety is Ateng, and Ateng is a hybrid between Arabica and Robusta, widely cultivated in Sumatra and other Indonesian islands. Ateng is actually the local name for Catimor coffee. Katim was in 1959, when the Portuguese moved the Brazilian bourbon mutant Kadura to East Timor to mix with Tim, who is of Robusta ancestry, which has ultra-high disease resistance, three times the capacity of a tin pickup. During the leaf rust crisis, the Indonesian government not only introduced Robusta (its flavor is very different from Arabica), but also introduced Tim to East Timor to replace the iron pickup. After the investigation of later experts, a batch of Tim seeds introduced by the Indonesian government in 1980 were mixed with some Katim seeds, which were planted in Aceh in northern Sumatra. The area that Katim first detected in Indonesia is central Aceh, so locals also call Katim Ateng, taken from Aceh Tengah (central Aceh).

Mount Azigayo is in the northernmost corner of Sumatra. The coffee cultivation of Mount Jiayu is mainly around the hillside of the town of Takegon and Lake Tawa. The average height in the production area is between 1100 and 1600 meters, and the quality of its coffee has always been excellent, but due to previous political instability, it is difficult to export coffee in this area. In recent years, the situation is peaceful, the cultivation of coffee in Aceh has also been developed, and the quality is also better than that in Lindong.

Golden Manning has more stringent requirements for quality, first of all, to ensure that the size of coffee beans is 19 mesh, and the particles are full and uniform. Then we have to go through one machine selection and three manual selection to ensure the defect rate of raw beans, which is undoubtedly a trust in the quality of coffee in the Yazijiayu area.

Golden Manning Coffee treatment:

The unique flavor of Wet Hulling coffee has a fundamental relationship with the processing method. Due to Indonesia's perennial muggy climate and lack of water, Indonesian farmers have developed a better way to dry coffee beans-wet planing, also known as wet shelling, in order to better peel and dry coffee beans in the case of saving water. In the process of wet planing, drying quickly and removing parchment drying are its characteristics. Teacher Han Huaizong described it as "this is also a rare treatment in the world, accidentally creating Mantenin's special low-acid, thick and smelly flavor." And Golden Manning Coffee is also wet-soaked.

Qianjie believes that gold mantenin is a unique boutique coffee in Indonesia, and the carefully selected gold mantenin has a full appearance of each bean and a strong aroma, and the taste is more round and mellow than that of ordinary mantenin. After drinking, the end will bring a slightly sweet taste! Golden Manning can be said to have the title of invincible myth in direct coffee.

So how to make this golden manning coffee bean by hand?

Coffee beans are light-roasted and deep-roasted, and the attention of hand-baking is also different. Golden Mantenin coffee beans belong to deep-baked beans, the water temperature should not be too high, choose Kono cup. The water temperature is low because you do not want to extract too much miscellaneous flavor. When Qianjie coffee chooses deep roasting, too many aromatic substances have been released. If you continue to use shallow roasting water temperature extraction, it will lead to over-extraction. The reason why Qianjie coffee chooses the Kono filter cup is that the flow rate of the V60 filter cup is too fast, and under the condition of low water temperature, it is easy to lack of extraction, while the Kono filter cup has few ribs and is located at the low end, and the filter paper clings to the filter cup, which can limit the airflow, increase the contact time between water and coffee powder, and make the coffee powder fully extracted to enhance the mellow taste.

Qianjie brewing golden manning coffee parameters:

Water temperature: 88 ℃, powder quantity: 15 g, ratio of powder to water: 1:15, degree of grinding: medium and fine grinding (pass rate of No. 20 sieve 70%).

The use of segmented extraction, with twice the amount of coffee powder water for steaming, that is, 30 grams of water for 30 seconds, and the reason for the need for steaming process is to make coffee powder can discharge the internal carbon dioxide gas, so that the latter stage of the extraction is better stable. When the small water is injected around the circle to 125 grams, continue to inject water to 225 grams, and then remove the filter cup after the dripping of the filter cup. The time is calculated from the beginning of the water injection, and the extraction time is 2 times 39 grams. Next, pick up the whole cup of coffee and shake it well, then pour it into the cup to taste.

[PWN Gold Manning Coffee Bean Flavor]: the overall level of coffee is varied, mellow and clean, with intense nutty and caramel aromas, chocolate aromas, a long finish and a high sense of balance.

Suggestion on brewing coffee in Qianjie

For coffee brewing, Qianjie recommends using freshly roasted coffee beans for brewing, so that you can maximize the rich flavor of coffee. The coffee beans shipped in Qianjie are all roasted within 5 days, because Qianjie is well aware that the freshness of coffee beans has a great impact on the flavor. The purpose of Qianjie roasting is "freshly roasted coffee", so that every guest who places an order is the freshest coffee when he receives it. The bean cultivation period of coffee is about 4-7 days, so when the guest gets it, it is the time when the flavor is the best.

Of course, there are some customers who need help grinding powder in front of the street, which doesn't matter, but Qianjie has to warn: if the coffee beans are ground ahead of time, there is no need to raise the beans, because in the process of transportation, the pressure caused by carbon dioxide in the package can also make the coffee flavor mellow, so when you receive the coffee powder, you can immediately make a cup of coffee to drink. But the coffee powder needs to be brewed in time, because the coffee powder oxidizes more quickly after contact with the air, that is to say, the flavor of the coffee will dissipate more quickly, and the flavor of the coffee is not so good. Therefore, Qianjie suggests buying whole beans, grinding and flushing now, so that we can better taste the flavor of coffee.

The gold manning of the front street coffee has always been the most popular! And rations bean Mantenin coffee is also an affordable hot seller! In addition to Indonesian coffee beans, there are dozens of individual beans from different producing areas of South America and Africa. Welcome to experience!
