Flowering and fruiting cycle of Coffee Tree-- introduction to the processing process from Coffee Fruit to Bean

1. Dry method: after the fresh fruit is dried or dried, remove the pericarp and seed coat with a sheller and sift out the impurities.

2. Wet method: this method is used for mass production. Peel the fresh fruit with a peeling machine, separate the bean grains from the pericarp, soak the peeled beans in water, wash, dry, and then remove the seed coat to get commercial coffee beans.

3. The collection should be kept in a dark and dry environment and sealed with a barrel if necessary.

When high-quality coffee beans are picked, the most important step in making them gourmet coffee is roasting and mixing. As a result, coffee beans from different places show different fragrant, dry, mellow, bitter and sour tastes. A master baker must have the temperament of an artist and the rigor of a scientist. Only in this way can we ensure that the sugars and other carbohydrates in the coffee are carbonized during the baking process, thus producing the well-known coffee fat and producing good coffee of high quality and consistent style. Academically, this subtle chemical is not really grease (because it is soluble in water), but it is the source of the aroma of coffee. Professional coffee is generally roasted in small batches. Different degrees of roasting of coffee beans determine what flavor the coffee beans will eventually show. The aroma extracted from coffee beans is proportional to the baking time, the deeper the roasting degree, the less caffeine content and the less acidity. The deeper the baking, the heavier the burnt feeling you taste, the lighter the taste of the coffee bean itself, and the more labor-intensive and expensive it is to pick by hand. Therefore, it is mainly used to pick high-quality Arabica coffee beans. This is only the first step in the production of high-quality coffee, and it is also the way to pick coffee in Yunnan. Fresh fruit needs to be peeled on the day of picking, followed by fermentation, cleaning and drying to ensure that the coffee beans maintain the purest and original aroma and taste of more than 100 coffee producing areas in the world, with their own characteristics. The purpose of mixing coffee beans is to balance the flavor of coffee and create an unparalleled delicacy. A single coffee bean generally lacks the complex flavor necessary to make delicious coffee. Many blends contain three to seven different types of beans. Roasters understand the characteristics of each kind of coffee beans and mix them artistically to create a new flavor. However, the knowledge of roasters mixing coffee beans is the highest industry secret. Baking or mixing first has always been a controversial issue among bakers. Generally speaking, each item is roasted and then mixed, which maximizes the different flavor characteristics of each kind of coffee.
