Two methods for the treatment of coffee beans

After harvest, the fruit must immediately enter the treatment process, otherwise it will begin to ferment, making coffee beans have a bad smell. There are two methods of treatment: "solarization" and "washing", which will cause different flavors. Sun-dried beans have a complete natural mellow flavor, gentle aroma and more gum; the washing law has a good mellow taste, a high aroma and a certain sour taste.

Mellow taste is an important condition of espresso, which will produce a mellow and smooth feeling as strong as wine. Espresso lovers can increase the weight of sun-dried beans; water-washed beans are clean and clear, and they are suitable for follicular coffee brewing because they have no miscellaneous smell. In addition, washed beans have a good sour taste, which is the source of sweetness in espresso.

Coffee was first grown in the Arabian Peninsula, where the climate is dry and the rainy season is distinct, so the sun is used to make full use of the local sun. However, the conditions are different in different countries, the sun method can not be applied to every place, so there is the emergence of water washing method.

1. It rains all year round in the equatorial region, so water washing is mostly used, while in the subtropics, solarization is mostly used because the dry season is quite distinct from the rainy season.

two。 The washing method needs a lot of water, and the water quality should be good, otherwise the coffee will not taste good. Therefore, it is possible to use the water washing method in places rich in water resources.
