Our evaluation of the quality of a baker has a lot to do with experience. The more times he can bake, the more beans he can bake, and the more experience he has, the better the competition will be able to master. Then there is the presentation of flavor, because in baking, there is such a baking that is very shallow to very deep, and there is room for it to be appreciated at different baking levels. we will judge whether he is at his best according to the degree of baking chosen by the player and the flavor presented at this level.

The same bag of coffee beans, baked by different baristas, will have different effects.
