Introduction of processing fee for Arabica Coffee Bean Flavor description Grinding scale production area

Arabica is deeply loved by Chinese people with a short history of coffee contact because of its strong fruity aroma. it was introduced to China by missionaries in the 19th century and widely planted in Panzhihua, Sichuan, and the dry-hot valley of the Jinsha River above 1000 meters in western Yunnan. The sunshine in this area lasts for a long time and there is a great temperature difference between day and night. The local people solve the problem of insufficient seasonal rainfall by diverting water up the mountain, resulting in a unique aroma of "Chinese coffee". Among them, Banpo coffee grown in Arabica in Panzhihua, Sichuan is the most. Compared with Yunnan and Hainan, Panzhihua in the dry-hot valley has longer sunshine, higher altitude, greater temperature difference, good light quality and more virgin land. it is a rare and most suitable area for growing Arabica coffee. Banpo coffee farmers take advantage of this advantage to adopt unique planting and processing technology: first, "do not land on the ground": from collecting coffee beans to processing into finished products, coffee has been kept free from soil and other sundries to ensure its taste and quality; second, "graded collection": since coffee beans are not uniform and mature, coffee beans of the same level are collected centrally rather than mixed together. Such as manual operation, the use of a large number of labor force to collect, classify and process. The coffee here is rich in aroma, bitter and sour, and fruity. It is very popular among consumers and favored by foreign coffee beverage giants. Arabica coffee accounts for 70% of all coffee production, accounting for 80%. Its excellent flavor and aroma make it the only one of all native coffee species.

A coffee that can be drunk directly. However, its resistance to dryness, frost, diseases and insect pests is too low, especially the natural enemy of coffee-leaf rust, so all producing countries are committed to variety improvement.

It turned out that all the commercial coffee in the world was small-grain coffee, but it was only at the end of the 19th century that growers began to look for other disease-resistant varieties because of the collapse of a large number of coffee farms caused by leaf rust.

Small-grain coffee is still the most important coffee variety, accounting for about 3% of the world's total coffee production. It is mainly grown in Latin American countries, but also partly in Indonesia and the Pacific islands. The geographical and climatic conditions of Brazil, the largest coffee producer in the world, are very suitable for the growth of small-grain coffee, and the main coffee varieties planted are also small-grain coffee. Brazil's coffee production accounts for more than 1% of the world's total output.

The fruit of small-grain coffee is smaller than that of medium-grain coffee and large-grain coffee. The berries are oval and generally have two seeds, the so-called "coffee beans".
