Last Updated: 2024/09/21, Which is better, the water system or the sun-dried coffee beans? The history of Yunnan small grain coffee began with the Robusta varieties brought by missionaries in the 19th century. In the 1950s, Soviet experts brought two major Arabica varieties to Baoshan, Yunnan to cultivate and popularize.

The history of Yunnan small grain coffee began with the Robusta varieties brought by missionaries in the 19th century. In the 1950s, Soviet experts brought two major Arabica varieties to Baoshan, Yunnan to cultivate and popularize. After a special period, scientific research and cultivation tended to stagnate, and Baoshan tin card varieties won the first place in the international coffee competition after the reform and opening up, but did not attract the attention of the Chinese people. The Katim variety (Arabica and Robusta hybrid) was introduced into Baoshan in the 1990s, which solved the pest problem and increased the yield, and became the main reason for the low quality of Yunnan coffee. However, there are still some hilltops that continue to grow excellent iron pickup and bourbon varieties, but the reality of collective harvesting by small coffee farmers is difficult to ensure that the varieties are not mixed.

In recent years, some coffee professionals have cooperated with high-quality coffee gardens in Yunnan to upgrade and improve their producing areas, which are mainly reflected in red fruit picking, change of treatment methods, organic cultivation and so on. The producing areas that represent the new starting point of Yunnan small grain coffee include Pu'er Man Laojiang, Manzhong Tian, Baoshan Lujiang Baihualing, Baoshan Lukang and so on.

Washed coffee accounts for 35% of exports. Good quality washed coffee is processed with freshly picked fully ripe fruit, picked carefully and closely monitored by professionals. The picked clean coffee beans are pulped on the day of picking, then fermented, washed, dried and peeled. The humidity of processed coffee beans is kept at about 12%. The washing rule has a good mellow taste, a high aroma and a lively sour taste.

Sun-cured coffee accounts for 65% of exports. Mainly picked by families, red coffee beans are placed on cement floors or on high tables to dry to about 11.5% humidity, then peeled and cleaned. Sun-dried beans have a complete natural mellow flavor, gentle aroma and more gum.

The honey treatment process is vulnerable to pollution and mildew, so it needs to be closely watched throughout the process, constantly turning, and speeding up drying, so as to avoid bad fermentation flavor. Its advantage is that it can best preserve the original sweet flavor of coffee ripe fruit, making the coffee show elegant black sugar flavor and drupe flavor, while the berry flavor also supports the basic aroma of red wine, which is considered to be a very elegant product. The popularity of honey-treated coffee beans is largely due to their sweet and thick characteristics, which are very suitable for Espresso production in cafes. In recent years, more and more coffee beans are called "Miel Process", and they have also become a favorite material for international coffee contestants.
