Qianjie-Kenya Coffee Grade introduction

Kenyan coffee quality control is very strict, by the Kenyan government to set up the official unit "Kenya Coffee Agency" (referred to as CBK) control, established in 1933, in the capital Nairobi (Nairobi) coffee exchange for regular regular auctions, by the government overall management of the auction system, according to the grading system is to "particle size", weight and shape appearance as the standard, is the basis for the main auction price.

Kenya is divided into AA,AB,C,E,PB,TT,T,ML,MH according to the size and shape of coffee beans. These grades mainly distinguish the shape and size of beans, but not absolutely represent the quality of beans. Many people believe that beans with larger grains contain more oils that produce the aroma of coffee, and because of this, beans with larger grains are more expensive in the market. Take Kenya AA as an example, in the same level of beans, the highest grade is manor beans, and then the general AA,AB grade compared with AA,C grade is smaller beans, E level is extra-large elephant beans, TT, T, ML, MH are local non-flowing beans.

According to the quality of coffee beans, Kenya uses a digital grading method to distinguish the quality of coffee, but this digital grading method is not publicized in China, so few people know about it. Therefore, the grading is based on particles, and the PB with different shapes is about the same as AA, but if it is manor, it is two or one grade respectively. For example, AB Manor beans are about the same as AA and PB.

Kenya is a model student in a coffee-producing country. No country in the world attaches so much importance to the production of high-quality coffee as Kenya. All Kenyan coffee must be purchased and tested by the "Coffee Board of Kenya, CBK" set up by the government after harvest, and samples must be sent to the buyers. At the auction held in Nairobi, the capital, coffee buyers from all over the world bid according to the quality of the samples they received.

The auction system, managed by the government, has encouraged more than 10,000 small coffee farmers across Kenya, because as long as they have good quality, it is not difficult to get a good price. In fact, the Kenyan government has made more efforts than that. the government also provides a large number of small coffee farmers with the technology to grow coffee, tutoring hundreds of agricultural transportation and marketing cooperatives for better handling of raw beans, and CBK is also devoted to the production, quality research, sales, and even financial guidance of the coffee industry. All this has created the unparalleled charm of Kenyan coffee and the crazy love of coffee gluttons from all over the world.
