Flavor description of Indonesian musk cat droppings coffee with characteristic treatment introduction to the characteristics of grinding degree and taste

Civet is a nocturnal animal that lives in the jungle and eats very little. Coffee beans produced by wild civets are very rare. Only in captivity can more Kopi Luwak be obtained. Some unscrupulous traders keep this animal in narrow, dirty cages, forcing them to keep eating. They are on the verge of collapse, biting each other's companions, biting their legs and pulling blood. One after another, coconut cats are omnivores. In addition to eating seeds, they also eat insects and snakes, birds, amphibians and reptiles, so the feces discharged by really wild coconut cats will be mixed with all kinds of substances. Local farmers in Indonesia catch coconut cats to raise them and feed coffee beans to make them. But after all, there is a difference between artificial breeding and natural ones. Civets like to choose the most ripe, sweet, juicy coffee fruits in coffee trees as food. And the coffee fruit through its digestive system, is digested only the appearance of the pulp, the hard coffee beans are then intact by the civet's digestive system out of the body after processing and roasting, Kopi Luwak has become a luxury coffee drink, spread to luxury kingdoms around the world. Local coffee farmers, in pursuit of high profits, bring wild civets home to raise them so that they can produce more Kopi Luwak. However, the Kopi Luwak produced by breeding civets will be much worse in color and taste. Even so, the output of this kind of coffee is still very rare, and it is not affordable for all people who like coffee.

1. After Indonesians remove the silver-gray film on the appearance of coffee beans, wash them with water, dry them in the sun, and then stir-fry them, they become cat shit coffee beans.

2. Only about 150 grams of coffee beans can be extracted from a jin of civets' feces, which will cause 20% loss in the roasting process. Due to the unique raw materials and production process, this kind of coffee can be said to be very rare. No more than 400 kilograms of coffee beans are supplied worldwide every year.

3. Traditionally, the coffee fruit is washed or sun-treated to remove the excess parts and take out the coffee beans, but Luwak obtains the coffee beans by using its natural fermentation in the civets, so it has a unique flavor.

In Indonesian, "Kopi" means coffee, and "Luwak" is the name commonly known by Indonesians as "civet". It is said that the output of this kind of coffee does not exceed 500lb a year, and the price per pound ranges from US $300 to US $800, depending on the year, because the "civets" which do not have a fixed production every year are omnivores. They are withdrawn by nature and like to travel at night. Inhabit tropical rain forests, subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forests, mountain thickets or hills, mountains, grasslands and other places below 2000 meters above sea level. Its food includes small beasts, birds, amphibians and reptiles, crustaceans, fruits and seeds of insects and plants. The civet likes to choose the most mature, sweet, juicy coffee fruit in the coffee tree as food, while the coffee fruit passes through its digestive system and is digested only by the pulp on the outside of the fruit. The hard coffee beans are then excreted intact by the civets' digestive system. This is the "natural fermentation method" that was once scoffed by Americans. It is said that when Americans heard of such a way of making coffee, it was regarded as a fantasy, and it was not until it was reported by National Geographic magazine that they became interested in it.
