Qianjie-introduction to the freshness of coffee

Stale coffee not only tastes plain, but also loses its aroma. From the first wave of instant coffee, the second wave of espresso, to the third wave of boutique coffee, people pay more and more attention to the quality of coffee, and a key element of quality is "fresh". What is a fresh coffee bean?

Bean cultivation period:

Freshly roasted coffee beans should be packed in a bag containing a single exhaust valve as soon as possible, and the carbon dioxide will run for 1-2 days. When the coffee is extracted, the powder and water will come into contact more fully. Coffee beans are like living people, people with oxygen inhalation cause cell oxidation, but also the process of aging, just baked coffee is still too young, has not reached the most mature state.

The latest fresh period:

From the end of the soybean period, it takes about 2 weeks, which is the freshest period. At this time, the coffee beans will produce a lot of aroma, these aromas will form the charming flavor of coffee.

Relatively fresh period:

Calculated from the end of the latest fresh period of about 2 weeks, the coffee beans in the bag gradually went down from their peak. But at the beginning, the quality and flavor of coffee decreased slowly, and the freshness of coffee was still at a high level. We call it "relatively fresh period" for about one month. Every coffee lover and coffee shopkeeper should strive to use up the coffee beans before the end of the "fresh period".

Disposal period:

Calculated from the end of the relatively fresh period of about 4 weeks, the quality and flavor of ripe coffee beans has been much worse than before, it is difficult to act as the word "fresh", unable to meet the picky needs of professionals. But it's okay to mix milk and chocolate sauce to make fancy coffee.

Coffee as an agricultural product has a time limit, the shelf life of coffee beans is 1 year, the flavor period is 1 month, the flavor period is over, but it is best not to drink it after the expiration of the shelf life. The blue mountain flavor coffee knowledge is made up, similar to the blue mountain flavor coffee, although the sour, sweet, bitter flavor is similar, but there is no real blue mountain mellow, is a real fake blue mountain.

Knowledge expansion: the annual output of Blue Mountain Coffee is only 240 tons, and its price is relatively expensive.

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!
