A brief introduction to the treatment method of Grinding degree and Baking degree of Yunnan Katim Fine Coffee beans

Catimor: Katim is not pure Arabica blood, it is a hybrid of Timor (which belongs to Robusta) and caturra (a variety of Bobang), so catimor has 25% Robusta blood, and its Robusta blood also determines its taste defects: the aroma is not rich enough, and the overall taste is bitter, and it is prone to astringency and more irritating mildew.

Colombia is the biggest harvest of the new variety of Katim, and directly named the improved Katim as "Colombia" Katim and Kaddura are their two main varieties, with a proportion of about 6:4. These were told by my Colombian colleagues during the 2010 World Expo as a Chinese coffee consultant in Costa Rica. So those friends who flipped through the coffee beans printed in Supermo bags and said how Katim in Yunnan was so tasteless last time, please learn more about Katim, a coffee bar in Yunnan. As a variety that has taken root in Yunnan, I love and hate it. Although it has many shortcomings and is not suitable for planting at high altitude at all, there is still a lot of room for improvement and it has become better and better. How to find more of its advantages and make use of it is the most important. In the popular shallow baking pursuit of sour aroma to enhance the sweet taste of the domestic circle, it appears to be insufficient thickness. But few people realize that because of Katim's Romsta pedigree, it is suitable for deep and fast baking. Therefore, please treat and promote Yunnan coffee correctly.

Many chopped beans, adzuki beans and bad beans still have a lot of defective beans after drying, so we hand-picked them on the spot and finally left 9 kilograms of qualified ones-- and most of the morning has passed, of course, if it is used to make instant coffee or general commercial beans, high-yield catimor is a good choice, but we want to find Yunnan specialty coffee. Then the old variety of iron pickup has become the first choice because of its congenital excellent gene. Therefore, this trip to Yunnan also followed the trail of the old varieties. But the reality is really cruel. Before going, Brother Zou told me that there was an old variety in his relative's house, but what he saw excitedly was a wild growing coffee forest, which belonged to his aunt. Because his aunt was too old and did not have the strength to replant and renovate-- these old varieties survived, but the aunt was unable to manage it alone, so the tree was allowed to grow naturally. To pick some fruit when ripe, the so-called new variety actually refers to catimor, which is a hybrid of timor and Arabica from the Roberta family. Compared with the old variety, it lacks rich aroma and taste, and has a relatively shallow smell of grass and soil, but it has the advantages of resistance to diseases and insect pests, easy management and high yield, and its yield per mu is up to 350kg, which is more than twice that of the old variety.

Yunnan's relatively gentle mountain area accounts for only 10% of the total area, a large area of land is uneven, vertical and horizontal ups and downs, and there is a gentle plateau surface in a certain area.

In the longitudinal valley of western Yunnan, Gaoligong Mountain is the top of the mountain on the watershed between the Irrawaddy River and the Nujiang River, often covered with permanent snow, forming strange and majestic mountain glacier landforms. The Jinsha River "Hutiajian" canyon, with a relative height difference of more than 3000 meters from the mountains on both sides, is one of the world's famous canyons. The distance from Xidang Tiesuo of Lancang River to the summit of Kagbo Peak in Meili Snow Mountain is about 12 kilometers, and the height difference is 4760 meters. In a narrow range of more than 10 kilometers, it presents a strange landscape of subtropical dry-hot valleys and alpine ice and snow worlds. The natural scenery is equivalent to the latitude from Guangdong to Heilongjiang.

The province is divided into three echelons. Deqin and Shangri-La counties in northwest Yunnan are the first, the plateau in central Yunnan is the second, and the south, southeast and southwest are the third, with an average decline of 6 meters per kilometer. Basins and plateau platforms, the southwest is commonly known as "Bazi"

The history of coffee cultivation in Yunnan can be traced back to 1892. A French missionary brought coffee to Yunnan from abroad and successfully planted it in a valley in Binchuan County, Yunnan Province. The coffee plants of this batch of coffee seeds are still blooming and bearing fruit in Binchuan County.

Yunnan coffee was planted on a large scale in the mid-1950s, with a planting scale of 4000 hectares at one time. By the end of 1997, the planting area of coffee in the province had reached 7800 hectares. At present, the planting area of coffee in Yunnan has exceeded 300000 mu, with an output of 26000 tons, accounting for more than 90 percent of the country's total, with a total output value of nearly 400 million yuan.

1. [output] compared with the popularity of Pu'er tea, the fame of Pu'er coffee is not commensurate with the output. Yunnan coffee production accounts for 98.8% of the country's total output; Pu'er coffee production accounts for 57.8% of Yunnan's total output; and the price of a cup of Starbucks coffee is equivalent to 25 cups of AA grade Yunnan coffee beans.

2. [planting] in 2011, planting one mu of coffee trees in Pu'er can earn 4000-8000 yuan.

3. [export] Pu'er plays a primary role, and most of the coffee produced is supplied to multinational corporations in the form of raw materials.

In 2011, 70% of the coffee beans produced in Yunnan were carved up by coffee giants such as Starbucks, Nestl é, Maxwell and so on.

Coffee exported from Pu'er accounts for 77.8% of Yunnan's total exports.

4. [roasting] Yunnan has the largest coffee processing production line in China, with annual roasted coffee beans reaching 3000 tons.

Starbucks' Yunnan joint venture baking company says the value of coffee beans can rise 10 times after deep processing.

As the largest coffee shop customer in Yunnan, Starbucks has more than 13000 coffee shops in 39 countries around the world.

About 230 of them are in the mainland.

However, Starbucks does not have a store in Pu'er, and it is still difficult to find an authentic coffee shop in Pu'er.

Tibica coffee, native to Ethiopia and southeastern Sudan, is the most widely cultivated variety of coffee in the Western Hemisphere. The plant is stronger, but not light-tolerant, and the yield is higher in Hawaii. The top leaf of Tibika is red and copper, which is called red top coffee.

Bourbon coffee is a variety of small-grain coffee second only to Tibica. At first, the main branch and the trunk grew upward at 45 degrees, and drooped with fruit load, the lateral branches were denser, the fruit was more, and the yield was higher. But the berries are smaller and ripen more slowly. The top bud of Bobang is green, which is called green top coffee.

Although the environmental problems of coffee cultivation can reach the standard of hot areas, they are far away from the equator, evaporation, large-scale coffee cultivation in Yunnan is less than 1100m above sea level, the severe drought in Yunnan in recent years, and the frost period in the producing areas, and so on, all make coffee planting can not be guaranteed normally, which directly affects the quality of coffee production. As for other processing problems, not to mention the quality of farmers, tea farmers drink tea for generations, but farmers may not have had coffee in their lives.

Compared with Ironhide card, it is higher in yield and growth, so it is suitable for planting in the area of 1200 MUBG 2000 meters, but it is weak in resistance to diseases and insect pests, and is sensitive to strong wind and heavy precipitation. Bourbon coffee is a variety of small-grain coffee second only to iron pickup. At first, the main branch and trunk grew upward at 45 degrees, and with the fruit load, the lateral branches were denser, the fruit was more, and the yield was higher. But the berries are smaller and ripen more slowly. Bobang terminal bud tender leaves are green, called green top coffee
