Qianjie-Coffee male and female beans introduction

There are three kinds of seed forms in the coffee fruit. Except for the rare triangular beans, in a normal fresh coffee fruit, the spherical coffee seed is composed of two coffee beans together, the plane is relatively inward and the arc is outward. This common form of coffee beans is called Flat Berry, which is also called mother bean. On the other hand, a small number of round beans whose seeds do not split and show complete oval particles are called "public beans".

In fact, there is only a difference in growth form between the two, not a gender distinction. The common name in Chinese is indeed easy to be misunderstood.

Under what circumstances will lead to the emergence of public beans?

Gongdou is a variety of coffee beans, which mainly refers to Peaberry or caracoli, while Gongdou is just a common name in Chinese. The common bean can be said to be a flaw in botanical theory, and there are two causes, one of which is that coffee is damaged by insects before forming fruit, and it may also be due to the influence of factors such as prolonged drought or uneven nutrition of coffee trees. In addition, coffee beans growing at the ends of the branches of coffee trees are also likely to have this phenomenon.

Is the male bean good or the mother bean good?

Some people think that if it is a male bean grown at the end of a coffee tree, it will receive more light and calories, and its own supply of nutrients will be exclusive, and its flavor will naturally be better than that of mother beans grown in the same tree; there is also a saying that male beans are easier to tumble than mother beans because of their physical characteristics, which is good for improving baking uniformity.

Because the particles of public beans are relatively large, the fragrance of boiled coffee continues to return to sweet, the number is relatively small, and it is also known as Dream Coffee. Therefore, it is precisely because of these characteristics that round beans are now regarded as tourist commodities in a tourist country in Southeast Asia, and their prices are not cheap. This is not as good as they say, everyone should be careful when buying.

Knowledge: it takes about five years for coffee to be cultivated and mass-produced. In this process, flowering, fruiting, picking, processing, storage, sales and other steps, until we receive the end market coffee raw beans.
