d. Grading by level (reference table)

According to the elevation of the cultivated land, it can be divided into three, four, seven and other grades. Generally speaking, the quality of highland beans is better than that of lowland beans, and the price is higher because of the increase in freight.

Sequence number equal order abbreviated elevation

1 selected quality beans S.H.B 4500 ~

2 good coffee beans H.B 4000mm 4500

3 medium coffee beans S.H 3500 million 4000

4 super high-grade washed coffee beans E.P.W 30003500

5 first-class washed coffee beans P.W 250000 3000

6 special water washed coffee beans E.G.W 2000 2500

7 High quality washed coffee beans G.W ~ 2000

The table is graded by level

e. Quality

According to the statistical method, the type and quantity of dopants contained in a certain amount of samples are converted into percentage "defect number", and the basis for determining the quality class is that the smaller the defect number is, the higher the quality is.

f. Taste

Brazil, Haiti, Kenya, say and other countries all have their own taste testing methods, which can be exported only after taste testing.
