Indonesian Java Coffee Flavor Description Grind Treatment Taste Characteristics Variety Manor Introduction

Acidity [Acidity]: the strong acidity of all coffee grown on the plateau. The sour here is different from bitterness and Sour, and has nothing to do with pH value. It refers to a fresh and lively quality that promotes coffee to exert its functions of invigorating the mind and clearing the taste. The acidity of coffee is not the acidity or sour smell of acidity or alkalinity, nor is it an uncomfortable acid that enters the stomach. When making coffee, the performance of acidity is very important. under good conditions and skills, a special taste with fresh acidity can be developed, which is a necessary condition for high-grade coffee. The sour taste of coffee describes a lively, bright flavor, which is somewhat similar to that used in wine tasting. If the coffee bean lacks acidity, it is equal to lose vitality, taste empty and boring, without layer depth. Acidity has many different characteristics, such as coffee beans from Yemen and Kenya, which have striking fruit aromas and red wine-like texture.

Java coffee is famous in the early years, which refers to Arabica coffee formerly grown on the island of Java. It has a strong aroma, low acidity, taste lubrication, mixed with mocha coffee, the resulting "Java mocha mixed coffee" was once popular and became synonymous with top coffee.

At that time, Java coffee sold to Europe was a very special kind of coffee. At that time, it was shipped to Europe and the United States by sailboat, and the distance was long and the speed was slow, so it took a lot of time to transport. In this case, the coffee seems to have undergone a special fermentation and has a very unique taste.

Later, when the ship replaced the sailboat, due to the shortened delivery time, people drank relatively fresh coffee beans. But people who are used to drinking Chen beans are not used to the fresh taste, so they desperately pursue old Java coffee, so that the Indonesian government and some businessmen deliberately store fresh beans in warehouses for one or two years and then sell them to consumers. In fact, compared with fresh beans, the acidity of aged Java beans is close to zero, but the flavor is more intense. Because of the long storage time, the increase in cost and the limited quantity, Java has always been a hot item in the coffee market. In the 1880s, some profiteers deliberately tampered with some fresh Guatemalan or Venezuelan beans to mimic the high prices of old Java. It is intolerable that profiteers dye coffee beans to make them look more like old Java, but there is no doubt that the dyed chemicals are certainly toxic.

Java produces only a small amount of Arabica beans, most of which were imported from Africa after the rust disaster. This coffee has a strong bitter taste after roasting, but the aroma is extremely light. Although the acidity is low and the taste is delicate, it is rarely used for direct drinking. It is often used to mix mixed coffee or to make instant coffee.

Diseases and insect pests are really a powerful thing. It has greatly reduced coffee production in Brazil and repeatedly influenced the international coffee market. It has also made Sri Lanka, which used to plant coffee trees, cut down coffee trees and plant tea instead. It also makes Java, which is rich in high-quality Arabica coffee, switch to Romsda coffee for fear of diseases and insect pests. Arabica Java coffee, which is regarded as a treasure, has been far away from people's sight, and people's unlimited favor and pursuit of Java coffee has been lost ever since.
