Last Updated: 2024/11/05, People often mistakenly think that coffee is grown directly with raw beans, but it takes a long time to grow coffee only to find that it doesn't sprout. In fact, coffee is grown with seeds with endocarp (Parchment). The inner fruit (or sheepskin or paper parchment) refers to the tea-brown hard skin that wraps the coffee seeds, and the coffee beans attached to that layer are called Parchment Bean. Put aside the bright red of full maturity

People often mistakenly think that coffee is grown directly with raw beans, but it takes a long time to grow coffee only to find that it doesn't sprout. In fact, coffee is grown with seeds with endocarp (Parchment). "Inner fruit" (or "sheepskin" or "paper skin") refers to the tea-brown hard skin that wraps the coffee seeds, and the coffee beans attached to that layer are called "Parchment Bean".

Plucking the skin of the fully ripe bright red coffee fruit (called red cherry), you can see that there is yellow flesh under the red skin, which is a bit like a cherry, the flesh is sweet, there is a pair of symmetrical seeds in the center, and there is a slippery film around the seeds. Wash the film off with water to become "shelled beans". Peel off the endocarp and you will see the seeds covered with Silver Skin. The seed is the raw bean actually used as the raw material of coffee.
