Qianjie-Coffee beans introduction

Since it is hermaphroditic, there is no difference between male and female trees, and naturally there should be no difference between male and female beans. Furthermore, the original English word of "Gongdou" is "Peaberry" or the abbreviation "PB", but it is not called "Male Beans". The word "Gongdou" is just a common name in Chinese. in fact, he has another name, "Yuandou".

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".

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.

04 male beans or mother beans taste better

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.

Knowledge: coffee flower ovary has two ovules, because it is self-pollination, so the pollination rate is very high, usually two ovules will be pollinated successfully, and developed into a coffee berry with two seeds (flat beans)
