Introduction to the grinding characteristics of Ethiopian coffee flavor treatment

Yejasuefei uses the oldest sun treatment, but in 1972, Ethiopia introduced water washing technology from Central and South America in order to improve its quality, making its jasmine and citrus fragrance clearer and more refined. Yega Xuefei has become one of the best quality beans in the world, thanks to its exquisite washing technology. Since the 1970s, this area has been mainly washed, making it the most popular water-washed bean producing area in Ethiopia. Sun Yega Xuefei, beans are small and neat short round, Ethiopian sun beans are generally G3--G5, but this bean is G2, equal to the grade of washed beans, although there are still a few defective beans, but compared to Harald and Sidamo sun beans, is commendable.

The bean is baked before the second explosion and is brewed by hand and siphon. When grinding the beans, you can smell the sweet smell of sun fruit, and there is also the citrus and jasmine fragrance of Ye Jia Xuefei. It tastes like the three-in-one flavor of Harald, Yemeni Mocha and Ye Jia Xuefei!

Ethiopia's coffee grading and quality control system has two main indicators: visual inspection and cup evaluation, including the color, cleanliness, origin, taste and characteristics of coffee beans. The export rating is marked by simple numbers, with the best washed coffee at level 5 and the best sun-cured coffee at level 4. After grading, mark the place of origin and then export. Exports are usually paid by letter of credit, which can not only reduce the risk of foreign exchange collection for exporters, but also give quality assurance to importers.

According to the law, all coffee is sold through an auction held by Addis and DiRedawa. During the coffee harvest, such auctions are even held twice a day.

The export of coffee

Coffee is Ethiopia's most important export cash crop and the main source of Ethiopia's foreign exchange earnings. Ethiopia's coffee exports account for about 3% of the world market, making it the eighth largest coffee exporter in the world. Coffee exports increased steadily from 58000 tons in 1990 to 110000 tons in 1995-1996 and remained at this level in the following years. The export volume exceeded 110000 tons from 2001 to 2002 and reached 127000 tons from 2002 to 2003. As the price of coffee on the international market has been declining for a decade, Ethiopia's foreign exchange earnings have been seriously affected. Before the sharp drop in coffee prices, coffee exports accounted for more than half of Ethiopia's foreign exchange earnings, but now they account for only about 35 per cent. But according to the International Coffee Organization, coffee prices rebounded in 2002, rising from 41 cents per pound in September 2001 to 52 cents per pound in 2002 and 59.7 cents per pound in 2003. The average price in March 2004 was 60.8 cents per pound, an increase of 50% over September 2001. This is excellent news for Ethiopia.
