Coffee beans refer to the plant fruits used to make coffee. In a broad sense, there are two kinds of coffee beans in the world, Arabica beans and Robosta beans. The fruit of coffee consists of two oval seeds opposite each other. The connecting side of each other is a flat joint, which is called flat bean. But there is also a round seed called a round bean, which tastes no different.

The earliest Arab way to eat coffee was to chew the whole fruit (Coffee Cherry) to absorb its juice. They then mixed the ground coffee beans with animal fat as a physical supplement for long trips, and it was not until about 1000 AD that the green coffee beans were boiled in boiling water to make an aromatic drink. Three centuries later, Arabs began to bake and grind coffee beans. Because drinking was forbidden in the Koran, Arabs consumed a lot of coffee, so religion was actually a big factor in the popularity of coffee in the Arab world.

Honey treatment, called HoneyProcess or MielProcess, is the method of peeling off the pulp and drying the fruit with endocarp. This method is used in coffee gardens in Costa Rica (CostaRica), Panama (Panama) and Guatemala (Guatemala). Every day, coffee joins to introduce you to the honey treatment of raw coffee beans.

He thought it was strange, and then after careful observation, he found that the sheep were excited after eating some kind of red fruit. Carl tasted some curiously, and found that he was refreshed and excited after eating, so he picked some of the incredible red fruit home and distributed it to the locals, so its magical effect spread.

Legend has it that in the mountains of Yemen in 1258, Shek, the chief who was deported by his people for committing a crime. Omar, exiled far away.

Vasaba (in Arabia), when he was walking on the mountain exhausted, he found that the birds on the branches made a very sweet cry after pecking at the fruit of the tree. So he boiled the fruit with water, but unexpectedly sent out a rich and attractive fragrance, and the original feeling of exhaustion was eliminated after drinking, full of vitality. Later, Omar collected many of these magical fruits, and when someone got sick, she made the fruit into soup for them to drink, refreshing them. Because he did good everywhere and was loved by believers, his sins were soon forgiven and returned to Mo.
