Introduction to the description of the characteristics and Flavor of Kilimanjaro Coffee by Price treatment

"fresh" is the most important factor in buying Kilimanjaro coffee beans. There are several steps to judge whether the beans are fresh or not.

1. Grab a handful of coffee beans and feel whether they are solid beans with the palm of your hand.

2. Whether it is enough to smell the aroma close to the nose.

3. Put a bean into your mouth and bite it twice. There is a clear sound indicating that the bean is well preserved and not damp.

If you want to buy a single Kilimanjaro coffee bean, grab a handful in the palm of your hand, in addition to the above judgment, but also look at whether the color, grain size and shape of each bean are similar, so as not to buy mixed beans. If you buy mixed beans, it is normal to have different colors, grain sizes and shapes.

Tanzania's main coffee producing area, located at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, is rich in volcanic soil. Some coffee trees planted here are more than 100 years old. Coffee was first introduced by Christians from Kenya to grow coffee. Coffee trees must be carefully taken care of, weeded and fertilized. Moreover, old branches must be cut off so that they can grow new branches to maintain the quality of coffee beans, and coffee bean processing plants are well equipped; coffee beans are an important economic crop in Tanzania, and the local government attaches great importance to brewing this industry: to brew a good cup of coffee, in addition to fresh coffee powder and slightly harder water, there should also be a set of brewing tools that are easy to use. There are three main types of coffee machines in common use.

Drip filter: wet the coffee powder with water and let the coffee liquid flow through the filter cloth or filter paper and flow into the container at the speed of natural fall. Basically, this method does not soak the coffee powder, just let the hot water pass slowly through the coffee powder. Both the drip cup and the electric coffee maker fall into this category and are the simplest brewing tools that can make clean and brightly colored coffee.

Bubble type: put the coffee powder into the pot, soak it in hot water for several minutes, and then filter out the coffee grounds by a filter cloth or screen to form a cup of coffee liquid.

Siphon pots, drip pots, Belgian coffee pots and Vietnamese coffee pots are all follicular brewing tools, and they all have a soaking process to form a more complex taste.

High-pressure type: use pressurized hot water to penetrate the compacted coffee powder to produce a thick cup of coffee in this form of tools such as a mocha pot and an espresso machine.

Quick brewing method: can use Italian espresso machine, faster coffee brewing method. The espresso machine can extract several cups of coffee successively. The oil and gum in the coffee beans can be emulsified and dissolved under high pressure during the brewing process, and the essence of the beans is completely extracted by pressure, making the brewed coffee stronger, better in taste and flavor.
