Qianjie-Coffee male and female beans introduction

Coffee beans

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. Because of its similar appearance, coffee is also called coffee cherry. If you remove the outer skin and flesh, you can see two seeds. These are our common coffee beans. Therefore, usually a normal growth of coffee cherry will have two coffee beans, commonly known as flat beans, this is known as "mother beans".

Male bean

Another situation is that there is only one seed in this coffee cherry, commonly known as peaberry, and related people call it "public bean".

Cause of formation

During the growth process, one seed stops growing and the other fills the entire inner space of the coffee cherry. It is not a defective bean in itself, and it is thought to be of better quality than flat beans, although this is not supported by any scientific data.

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.

Of all the flat beans and round beans I have encountered, round beans do not perform better than flat beans because of their fuller meat, without exception.

Knowledge: Pacamara is a hybrid of Pacas Pacas and Marago Rippi Maragogype found in El Salvador in 1950.
