What does the bitterness of coffee come from? does the variety of coffee cause bitterness in coffee?

The bitterness of boutique coffee is actually one of the main flavor elements that make up its rich flavor. The baking stage has a great influence on it, and more or less bitterness can be extracted by manipulating the brewing method. If your coffee taste is too bitter, then there are many ways to solve this problem.

When trying to find coffee with a smooth taste, the first thing to consider is the type of coffee beans you choose. Hand-washed coffee beans are usually divided into two categories, Arabica coffee beans and Robusta coffee beans.

Robusta bean

Robusta beans are easier to grow, so they tend to be cheaper. These beans do contain more acid, which breaks down into bitter compounds when the beans are roasted. They also contain less sugar, so the bitterness in your coffee cup is not well balanced.

Arabica coffee beans

Arabica coffee beans grow better at high altitudes and need the best climatic conditions to ripen normally. They contain more sweetness, especially if the beans are selectively picked (harvested only when they are fully mature), so it is easy to balance any bitterness.
