Qianjie-introduction of dried fruits on Cochel trees in Ethiopia

Yejia Xuefei is indeed the backbone of boutique coffee. Many customers who come to the front street will ask Yega Xuefei coffee why it tastes so good and ask for a few more coffee to be put on the shelves for them to try. Today, I would like to introduce a coffee from Cochel, dried fruit treatment on the tree and brewing skills to share with you!

Kochere is located in the Gedeo region of southern Ethiopia. Yegashefi and Kochere are well known in this region. As the coffee produced by Yirgacheffe has a unique flavor and is widely loved, it has its own style in product classification and has always occupied a place in the global boutique coffee market.

Kochere is located in a small production area about 25 kilometers southeast of Yega Sheffield. The coffee beans are harvested from local small coffee farmers, which are composed of a large number of small coffee farmers with an average farming area of about 1 hectare at an altitude of about 1900 to 2100 meters. Coffee varieties are mainly a mixture of Typica and Heirloom (local native species). Due to the relatively advanced raw bean water treatment equipment in this producing area, there has always been a high level of performance in the field of washing treatment, which is praised for its clean and sweet complex tonality of honey and citrus. In the main local production mode, small coffee farmers will harvest red fruits and send them directly to the nearby washing treatment plant for unified treatment.

Sun drying of dried fruit on trees is a special method of raw bean treatment. to put it simply, in the process of coffee fruit ripening, the coffee plant is in a state of lack of water, so as to urge the plant to transport important nutrients to the coffee fruit. This method of treatment not only has higher requirements for planting methods, but also brings more rich and special flavor to coffee beans, in addition to a strong taste and acidity, its overall texture will also be greatly improved.

Sun treatment of dried fruits on trees

Hand punching parameters: 15g powder, V60 filter cup, water temperature 91 ℃, ratio of powder to water 1:15, grinding degree BG 6S (Chinese standard 20 sieve pass rate 58%).

Technique: steam 30 grams of water for 30 seconds, small flow evenly injected to 120 grams of water, when the water level is about to expose the powder bed, continue to inject water to 225 grams, and so on, remove the filter cup when the water level is about to expose the powder bed, and do not want the water at the end. The extraction time for steaming starts at about 2 minutes.

The technique of segmented extraction is that the flow should be smooth, the temperature should be highly consistent, and how much water should be required in each section, which is difficult to control, but it is also the best way to extract the flavor of coffee!

Flavors: red berries, citrus, tropical fruits, chocolate

Knowledge expansion: water washing technology was introduced into Ethiopia in the 1970s. At present, water washing is the main treatment of raw beans in Kochere.

In short: Qianjie is a coffee research hall, happy to share the knowledge about coffee with you, we share unreservedly just to make more friends fall in love with coffee, and there will be three low-discount coffee activities every month. The reason is that Qianjie wants to make more friends drink the best coffee at the lowest price, which has been Qianjie's tenet for 6 years!
