And even people who have never had coffee have heard of the fame of Mantenin and Blue Mountain.

When it comes to full-bodied coffee, people always think of Indonesia's Mantenin coffee beans and Jamaica's Blue Mountain No. 1 coffee beans, which even those who have never had coffee have heard of. Qianjie is here to talk to you about the difference between these two kinds of coffee beans. Indonesia Mantenin Coffee Indonesia is a country made up of many large and small islands with the equator as the center. It is the third largest coffee producer in the world, mostly Robusta varieties. Of course, Arabica coffee trees are also planted here, and the planting areas are distributed in Java, Sulawesi and Sumatra. The Mantenin coffee beans we often talk about are from Sumatra, the most representative coffee bean in Indonesia.

The word "Manning" is the name of a group in Sumatra, not a variety of coffee beans. Naming coffee beans after ethnic groups is also due to a misunderstanding ~ around 1945, when Japanese soldiers stationed there drank locally produced coffee on the island of Sumatra and thought it was very delicious, they asked the locals what the coffee was. Perhaps because of language difficulties or trade secrets, the local man casually told the soldiers the name of his ethnic group "Mandheling". Years later, the soldier was still obsessed with the coffee he drank on the island of Sumatra, so he began to buy coffee on the island and named it Mantenin Coffee Bean. The locals who answered the soldier at that time also saw a business opportunity and began to sell Mantenin coffee beans to Japan, which had been carefully screened, good-looking and of all grain sizes, and the man was the boss of Indonesia's famous PWN raw bean company.

PWN has strict screening criteria for coffee beans sold abroad. The company only selects Mantenin coffee beans with specifications of more than 18 mesh and less than 3 defective beans (300g raw bean samples), belonging to the highest grade G1, dark green and neatly shaped flat beans. After the processing of raw beans after density color separation screening, but also manually pick beans, a total of four times carefully selected, PWN gold Mantenin coffee beans showed the same color, uniform beans, it is said that when dealing with raw beans, the sun's Mantenin emits a golden luster, so it was named PWN Gold Mantenin. The gold manning coffee beans sold on Qianjie for years are all from PWN raw beans.

Jamaica Blue Mountain one Coffee Jamaica is an island country in Central America and the Caribbean. Among them, the Blue Mountain range (Blue Mountain) is 2255m above sea level. It is the highest peak on the island of Jamaica, about 40 to 50 minutes' drive from Kingston, the capital of Jamaica. This mysterious mountain is often shrouded in clouds, and the famous Blue Mountain Coffee grows here.

Blue Mountain Coffee is precious because it has both a good congenital pedigree and an excellent environment. The Blue Mountains are located in the coffee belt, with fertile volcanic soil, cool weather, foggy weather and frequent rainfall, which reconcile the rich land of Rain Water. Here people use mixed planting to grow coffee trees next to banana and avocado trees on terraces. The coffee variety planted is also the "ancestor" of many coffee varieties-the Tieka coffee variety. The iron pickup planted in Blue Mountain was transplanted from Martinique to Blue Mountain in Jamaica in the 1820s. After more than 200 years, Blue Mountain Iron pickup has evolved better disease resistance, especially better resistance to rotten fruit disease than ordinary iron pickup. However, the Blue Mountain Ironhide Card cannot replicate its sweet and fragrant characteristics when it steps out of Jamaica.

Not all coffee beans grown in the Blue Mountains are called Blue Mountain one coffee beans. Only the blue mountain coffee beans produced in more than 6709 of Jamaica Blue Mountains can be called Jamaica Blue Mountains. According to the bean size, they are divided into NO.1, NO.2, NO.3 and hand-selected PB. Among them, the basic standard of blue mountain raw beans of NO.1 is beans with more than 17 mesh, defect rate less than 3%, moisture content about 13%, and so on. The Jamaican government also stipulates that the exported blue mountain No. 1 coffee beans need to be loaded in wooden barrels and issued with export certificates. The coffee beans sold by Qianjie Coffee come from the only Clifton farm in the Blue Mountains that is certified by the rainforest. Blue Mountain Coffee certificates and buckets containing raw beans of Blue Mountain No. 1 coffee can also be seen in the front street store.

Clifton Farm began to grow and produce coffee as early as the mid-18th century. The coffee planting and processing area here is located at an average altitude of 1310.64 meters above sea level, with sufficient altitude, mild afternoon cloud shade, sufficient sunshine and mineral-rich planting soil to provide good growth conditions for coffee trees. it also prolongs the ripening of the coffee fruit, so that the coffee beans sold on the estate have a clean whole and a balanced flavor of sweet and sour coffee. What's the difference between the front street coffee PWN gold manning coffee bean and the Jamaican Blue Mountain one coffee bean flavor?

In order to highlight the mellow thickness of the two coffee beans, Qianjie bakers use medium-deep roasting. In order to highlight the cleanliness and mellow characteristics of the two coffee beans, Qianjie will use KONO Mingmen filter cups for brewing. The guide groove of the ribs of the KONO filter cup extends to the bottom of the hole where the coffee liquid flows out. Because the ribs are short at the bottom and have a high fit with the filter paper, the flow rate is slower than that of the V60, which is suitable for brewing coffee that wants to express the thickness of alcohol. The degree of grinding is medium and coarse grinding (73% of 0.85mm standard sieve), the amount of powder is 15g, the ratio of powder to water is 1:15, and the water temperature is 89 degrees.

Qianjie recommends using freshly roasted coffee beans for brewing, so that you can maximize the rich flavor of the 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.

Qianjie water injection technique only uses three-stage flushing: the first stage water injection is steamed with 30 grams of water for 30 seconds, the second stage water injection is carried out when the small water flow is injected around the circle to 125 grams, and when the water level is about to be exposed to the powder bed, the third stage continues to inject water to 225 grams to stop water injection, remove the filter cup when the water level drop is about to expose the powder bed, and (the time of steaming starts) the extraction time is 2 minutes 39th 20 ".
