Why adhere to 100% Arabica beans, Robusta beans is really not good?

With regard to Robusta coffee beans, he is indeed a lower-priced coffee bean.

On the level of aroma, there is still no small difference compared with the aroma of rabbinka beans.

I think many stores mix Robusta beans to increase the richness of coffee.

And reduce costs, and many Italian coffee beans are also matched in this way.

If you mix it properly, you can have a good taste.

But there is no denying the high caffeine of Robusta

Many friends will have heart palpitations, shortness of breath and so on when they drink coffee.

For those of you who love coffee, I would like to stress once again that "protruding nose will never use Robusta" beans.

It turns out that many friends who used to drink coffee have palpitations.

If you drink our coffee, you won't have such a problem.

This is not my personal experience, but the personal experience of many people.

We don't need to mix beans like this to increase the concentration.

Because we have better solution, such as our boutique coffee beans.

And the basic mix of coffee beans is not Robusta beans.

Qianjie coffee is mixed with complete Arabica beans.

You can make a perfect balance in richness, aroma, and even levels.

Although the process is hard, we still mix more perfect Italian coffee beans.

You can do it without Robusta coffee beans, and you can do better.

And check the health of each guest.

This is "a kind of persistence" but also a kind of professional, you who love coffee.

The next time you buy Italian style to share beans,

You can also ask the store if it is mixed with Robusta beans.

Or insist on 100% rabbi beans as we do.

How to distinguish Arabica coffee beans from Robusta coffee beans:

The shape of ◎ Arabica coffee bean is long oval and flat, with S-shaped dividing line in the middle.

◎ Robusta coffee beans are oval, spherical or nearly spherical in shape, with a straight line in the middle.

There is also a definition of Robusta.

High in caffeine content and rather bitter. Generally less acid and less aromatic than Arabica coffee. Often slightly woody.

Robusta coffee beans are high in caffeine and quite bitter. There is usually less sour coffee and less aroma without Arabica beans. Often with a hint of wood aroma.

So what are Arabica beans?

Arabica beans and Robusta beans are the most common varieties of coffee on the market.

About Robusta beans

It's usually used in commercial beans.

Because his cost is cheaper than Arabica beans.

So some Italian coffee will also be mixed with robusta beans to save money.

Today we are also going to share the differences between robusta coffee beans and Arabica beans on Coffee chemistry.

1. The basic growth environment of the two kinds of beans is different:

Arabica beans grow at an altitude of 6-2200 meters, rainfall of 1200-2200 mm, and temperatures between 15-24 degrees.

Robska beans grow at an altitude of 0-800m, rainfall of 2200-3000 mm, and temperature between 18-36 degrees.

On average, the yield of Arabica beans per hectare is less than that of Robusta beans.

It also makes the planting cost of Arabica beans higher.

two。 Appearance of beans: Arabica beans are closer to oval shape, Robska beans are closer to round shape.

3. Caffeine and chlorogenic acid content:

The caffeine content of Robbica beans is 2.2% higher than that of Arabica beans, and the content of chlorogenic acid is also higher.

Also reduce the impact of diseases and insect pests

Affected by the degree of baking, chlorogenic acid has different degrees of bitterness and astringency.

It can also be easily found on the Internet.

Chlorogenic acid basically has some effect on our health.

For example, it oxidizes and helps burn fat.

I believe those who are interested can see a lot of information in the international literature or on the people-friendly good Morning Health website.

4. Oil and sugar content: Arabica beans contain up to 60% oil, and the sugar concentration is twice as high as that of robusta beans.

Therefore, these sugars play an important role in the baking process, creating key aromatic compounds,

Also create the mellowness of coffee (body)

5. Pollination differences: Arabica beans are self-fertilized plants, so genetic mutations are rare during fertilization.

I think this also makes the quality of Arabica species more stable.

6. The number of chromosomes: (speaking of which, some people may think that chromosomes have nothing to do with me? I just think the author analyzes the essential difference between Arabica beans and Robusta beans from a chemical point of view.

The chromosome of Arabica bean is 44 and that of Robusta bean is 22. They are born different.

Just like our race.

Each race has different characteristics.

Each has its own market XD.
