Taste and flavor of Mantenin coffee beans describe the grade of Indonesian Huangman coffee beans

Published: 2025-08-22 Author: World Gafei
Last Updated: 2025/08/22, Manning: the palate is rich and solid, with a pleasant sour taste. The smell is mellow, the acidity is moderate, the sweetness is rich and very intriguing, it is suitable for deep baking and exudes a strong aroma. The gentleman in coffee, Sumatra Manning, is a fine coffee that grows in the plateau and mountain area at an altitude of 750 to 1500 meters.

Some people may ask: what kind of coffee is not sour? A manning coffee will be recommended on the front street. Because Manning coffee is also full-bodied coffee, for those who do not like sour taste, it is also a very good choice. Manning became famous at the same time as Blue Mountain Coffee, and the black coffee of the last century was synonymous with mellow. Blue Mountain, like Manning, was written by the Japanese and succeeded in gaining a firm position in the world.

Mantenin seems to have become synonymous with Indonesian boutique coffee. In fact, Mantenin is not an Indonesian place name, a producing area name, a port name, or a coffee variety name, but a mispronunciation of Mandaining, an ethnic group originally living in Sumatra. Why is this nation involved in coffee? There is a crooked legend among them.

According to Qianjie Coffee: the origin of Manning Coffee has an interesting story with the Japanese. During World War II, Japanese soldiers drank a mellow coffee on the Indonesian island of Sumatra. So he asked the coffee shop owner about the name of the coffee, but the coffee shop owner mistakenly thought that the Japanese soldier wanted him to report himself, so he answered "Mandaining", because in Japanese, the pronunciation of "Mandaining" is very similar to that of "Mantenin". So I remember "Manning". The Japanese soldiers wanted to taste the mellow taste of Mantenin again in Japan after the war, so they entrusted their Japanese businessman friends to find local businessmen to help find Mandenin coffee in Indonesia. Later, Manning coffee became popular in Japan, and the name spread.

Sumatra manning coffee

Qianjie said: there are so many coffee producing areas in the world, different producing areas have different flavors, not to mention the producing countries. The caffeine in Sumatra, Indonesia, which provides a rich and satisfying flavor, is widely praised and famous all over the world, although it may be overwhelming to the layman. But Manning is known as the best quality boutique coffee in the world.

In front of the street, let's take you to know what the planting environment of Mantenin is like. Manning Coffee is produced in Sumatra, Indonesia, Asia, also known as "Sumatran Coffee". The main producing areas are Java, Sulawesi and Sumatra, 90% of which are Robusta species. Among them, the "Mantelin" produced in Sumatra is the most famous. The best of the exquisite traditional Arabica coffee produced in northern Sumatra of Sumatra is sold as Lindong Lintong and Manning Mandheling. To be exact, Lindong Lintong refers to coffee growing in a small area in the southwest of Lake Toba in Lindong District. The small coffee growing area is scattered on a high and wavy clay plateau full of fern covers. The average height of coffee growing in the production area is between 1200 and 1500 meters, and coffee is planted by shade farmers under shade trees. Lintong Lindong Coffee is grown without shade, does not use chemicals, and is almost entirely owned by small private owners. Mandheling Manning is a broader term that includes Lintong Lindong Coffee and similar conditions in the Diari [capital Sidikalang], the northern growing area of Lake Toba.

Golden manning coffee

Hear gold Manning, do not feel very noble, coffee unexpectedly used gold to describe, that how expensive gold ah! Qianjie tells everyone: this gold manning is really different. Mantenin is a high-quality boutique coffee, and that gold mantenin is the boutique of boutique coffee. Quality and taste are naturally on a higher level than Manning.

Golden Manning Coffee comes from the famous Pawani Coffee Company Coffee Company in Indonesia, referred to as PWN, which is the trademark registered company of Golden Manning. PWN's gold manning is characterized by a strict screening system, large and uniform beans, and a cleaner taste. The Mantenin coffee, which is full of particles and bright color, is definitely the role beauty in the coffee. In fact, in order to improve the problem of high defective Mantenin beans, the Japanese began to use carefully selected quality control a long time ago. After one machine selection and three manual selections, defective beans were eliminated, and golden mantenin coffee beans with dark green color and uniform beans were produced, creating another wave of market demand, even in Europe and the United States.

At present, most of the best coffee beans in Indonesia come from the PWN (Pwani Coffee Company) Pwangni Coffee Company.

G1 is a rare product, which is specially tailor-made for Japanese trading houses. G1 is a defective bean with a maximum of 3 points in 300 grams.

The gold manning on the coffee bean list on the front street is the gold manning of PWN. Qianjie this Mantenin coffee bean has a raw bean size of more than 18 eyes, with less than 3 defective beans per 300 grams of samples, the highest grade of G1. The gold Manning of Qianjie Coffee, whether outside or inside the sack, will have PWN logo and certificate, and the gold Manning specification is more than 18 items. Qianjie coffee through the cup test found that after strict screening of gold mantenin, gold manning tastes cleaner than mantenin, Mantenin's original herbal flavor, earthy flavor and wood flavor are almost gone, but the sweet aroma of caramel is more intense. the fruit is also more sour and elegant. PWN has registered the gold manning as a trademark, which means that only the gold manning produced by PWN can be regarded as a real "golden manning".

The treatment of Manning Coffee

The flavor of any coffee has a lot to do with how it is handled. Qianjie believes that although the local coffee will also have a local flavor, but the treatment will directly affect the coffee flavor. Indonesia is located in a typical tropical rain forest climate area, where there is frequent rainfall and a short duration of sunlight, which is not in line with the operation of solarization treatment, coupled with the general local economic conditions, there are not enough funds to be invested in water washing treatment, so this semi-washing treatment is derived.

This three-stage drying method is that farmers pick the fresh coffee fruit from the tree and make it on the same day, use a wooden peeling machine to remove the peel and pulp of the coffee fruit, ferment it for 3 hours and then dry it. When the shell beans are half-dry and half-wet, put them away and sell them to the local coffee processing station. The coffee processing station receives these semi-dry and semi-wet peas with shells, first remove the pectin layer and sheep skin, and then continue the latter stage of sun drying. As a result, the drying time of raw coffee beans is shortened, and can be stored in the warehouse between 2 and 4 days when the water content of raw coffee beans is reduced to 12% to 13%.

The characteristics of Mantening coffee: unique herbal aroma (similar to roasted fairy grass) and sunken wood flavor, caused by high humidity and three-stage drying of pectin layer. This is also a rare treatment, accidentally creating Mantenin's special low-acid, thick and smelly flavor.

The brewing parameters of Qianjie Coffee Manning and Golden Manning Coffee are recommended:

After receiving the raw Mantenin beans, the roaster of Qianjie Coffee adopted the degree of medium-deep roasting in order to bake the mellow, sweet and clean flavor peculiar to Mantenin. As the roasting degree of coffee beans increases, the dissolution rate of substances in coffee increases, in order to avoid excessive extraction, Qianjie recommends using a water temperature of 88 degrees Celsius and a medium coarse grinding degree. At the same time, in order to better extract the sweetness and mellowness of Manning, slow-flow filter cups, such as KONO filter cups, can be used.

Filter cup: KONO filter cup

Water temperature: 88 degrees Celsius

Amount of powder: 15g

Ratio of powder to water: 1:15

Degree of grinding: medium and coarse degree of grinding (Chinese standard No. 20 screen pass rate 75%)

When brewing, three-stage water injection can be used for extraction, thus giving the coffee a richer sense of hierarchy. First inject 30 grams of water to wet the coffee powder completely and steam it for 30 seconds, then the small flow slowly circulates into the second section of water to 125 grams for segments, the water level in the filter cup drops to the point where the powder bed is about to be filtered, and then the injection can be stopped when the water in the third stage is injected to 225 grams, and the filter cup can be removed after the water in the filter cup drips completely to the bottom of the sharing pot, and the total extraction time is 2 minutes.

Qianjie Lin Dong Manning Coffee flavor: baked toast, nuts, caramel, pine, herbs

Qianjie Golden Manning Coffee brewing flavor: spices, herbs, varied layers, mellow and clean, high sense of balance, strong nutty and brown sugar aromas, with chocolate aromas and a long finish.

For coffee brewing, Qianjie recommends using freshly roasted coffee beans for brewing, so that you can maximize the rich flavor of coffee. The coffee beans shipped in Qianjie are all roasted within 5 days, because Qianjie is well aware that the freshness of coffee beans has a great impact on the flavor. The purpose of Qianjie roasting is "freshly roasted coffee", so that every guest who places an order is the freshest coffee when he receives it. The bean cultivation period of coffee is about 4-7 days, so when the guest gets it, it is the time when the flavor is the best.

Of course, there are some customers who need help grinding powder in front of the street, which doesn't matter, but Qianjie has to warn: if the coffee beans are ground ahead of time, there is no need to raise the beans, because in the process of transportation, the pressure caused by carbon dioxide in the package can also make the coffee flavor mellow, so when you receive the coffee powder, you can immediately make a cup of coffee drink. But the coffee powder needs to be brewed in time, because the coffee powder oxidizes more quickly after contact with the air, that is to say, the flavor of the coffee will dissipate more quickly, and the flavor of the coffee is not so good. Therefore, Qianjie suggests buying whole beans, grinding and flushing now, so that we can better taste the flavor of coffee.

For the choice of coffee, if you don't know what flavor you like, you can come to Qianjie to choose rations beans. There are more than 50 kinds of single beans from different producing areas in Qianjie, and the most representative rations beans and coffee from 8 different producing countries for everyone to choose. The performance-to-price ratio of rations beans is very high, which is very suitable for coffee friends, especially for new coffee friends.
