Front Street-Kenya Coffee producing area, Neri Coffee Flavor sharing

Kenya coffee is rich in flavor: strong aroma and obvious acidity, especially after the harvest of Kenyan coffee, it must be uniformly purchased, tested and graded by the "Coffee Board of Kenya, CBK" established by the government. The coffee grade is classified by "particle size" and graded according to size, shape and weight. There are seven grades of "PB", "AA", "AB", "C", "TT", "T" and "Buni" respectively. The highest coffee beans are AA (large pellet beans left on the 7.2mm screen), A (sub-large pellet beans left on the 6.8mm sieve), B (medium pellet beans left on the 6.2mm sieve), C (all small pellet beans less than B), and PB (oval pellet beans). And too light, too small TT and T-grade beans. Grade An and B beans are mixed and exported, called AB.
