Today, the editor is going to introduce to you an innovative and new processing of Guatemalan coffee made by a good friend of origin. This good friend is Danny, who introduced his estate to you last week.

I was surprised by the treatment he brought this time. He thinks that when the fresh coffee fruit is picked at the most ripe time, the sugar content in the fresh fruit is the highest, and the fermented flavor of the sun-cured coffee will be stronger.

Danny doesn't just want all red fruits to be picked. He also wants to know what effect fresh fruits of different sweetness have on the fermented flavor of coffee. So he made an attempt. By testing the sweetness of fresh fruit, he distinguished the fresh fruit by its sweetness, and only picked fresh fruit with a sweetness of more than 18 degrees.

Next, we need to use a machine to intuitively explain the concept of sweetness 18-- sweetness meter.

Through the sweetness test of several different fruits, we have a more intuitive understanding of the concept of 18-degree sweetness.

4 degrees sweetness similar fruit in life = lemon

9 degrees sweetness A similar fruit in life = mulberry

Just thinking about it, I think that the sweetness of lemons with sour teeth is only 4. It turns out that high acid is not necessarily high sweet. )

So what's life like in 18-degree sweetness?

Because of its high altitude, long sunshine time, large temperature difference between day and night, less rain, dryness and slow ripening, the sugar content of Xinjiang red extract can reach as high as 20Mel 24% compared with the seed grown in the south of the Yangtze River. The sweetness of red is 16 degrees.

In other words, 18 degrees Sweet Insur Manor special batch of blue ribbon coffee fresh fruit sweetness higher than the sweetness of Xinjiang red grapes, silently prepared to eat another 2 jin of red extract to do a sweetness calibration.

Insur Farm chose to grow coffee in the mountains 1660 meters above sea level, with low annual rainfall and plenty of sunshine. They harvested and sorted the sweet ripe red fruits of about 18 degrees in this area and then sent them to their own treatment station.

What does the raw bean made by this method look like?

Look at raw beans

The grain is full, the color is yellowish, and there is a slightly fermented aroma. About fresh fruit sugar content is high, the degree of fermentation is more sufficient, the aroma is very charming.

Baked raw beans

(coffee won't work just by looking at it. Try sampling and roasting 200 grams.)

Danny chooses the sweetness of the fresh fruit of fermented coffee and the 18-degree sweetness with high sugar content to micro-ferment the sun for 20 days. The fermented flavor is very clean. You can feel strawberries, red apricots, fermented white grapes, full red fruit juice, high sweetness, clean, smooth and pure.

This coffee is the blue ribbon micro-batch sun treatment of Insur Manor.

Raw bean data

It comes from Insur Farm in Family Bonds, INSUL region of Vivette Nango, Guatemala, which is now run by my Wechat friend Danny and Danny's sister.

Through its own continuous reform and innovation, the estate of Insur is now the largest farm in Guatemala. It has its own coffee processing plant and has won the COE one Cup of Excellence International Award five times.

Wrapped in blue sacks are the latest batches of processed coffee from Insur Farm this year, which achieve a more innovative and perfect flavor by collecting 18-degree sweet fruits for 20 days of micro-fermentation.

The editor admires Danny's spirit of exploring the sweetness and fermentation of coffee, but.... After so much effort to study the new treatment, only 196 kilograms of raw beans came out. Less than three sacks. I sent a Wechat message asking Danny why there was such a small amount. (PS:Danny replied that Wechat is really super-serious every time, -- I'm an indecent editor.)

Indeed, Danny is right that experimental batches of good-flavored Guatemalan coffee are not always easy to get and cannot be mass-produced at the beginning. Such a good coffee, we actually open the sack, the net content is only 196 kilograms, less than three sacks, such a small amount of a product, we decided to include the cheetah plan, pro-people price to share excellent flavor.
