A Little Overview of Coffee Beans
The coffee plant has two main species. There is the Coffea Arabica, which is the more traditional coffee and considered superior in flavor, and the Coffea Canephora known more commonly as Robusta. Robusta tends to be higher in caffeine and can be grown in climates and environments were Arabica would not be profitable. Robusta is also typically more bitter and acidic taste. Because of this Robusta tends to be cheaper. High quality Robusta is also used to blend espresso for more bite, and at lower costs.
A little known fact is that some coffee beans improve their flavor with age. It is the green unroasted beans with age, the typical length of time is 3 years, even with some homes selling beans aged 7 years. Aged beans have a more full taste and is more acidic.
Growing conditions, soil types and weather patterns during the growing season all contribute to the flavor of the bean, creating differences in flavor from points of origin, such as Kenya or Brazil. However, roasting adds its own flavor, sometimes to the point that it is difficult to tell where the beans originated from, even by experienced cuppers.
The lighter the roast the more the natural flavor of the bean remains. This is why beans from regions such as Kenya or Java are normally roasted lightly, retaining their regional characteristics and dominate flavors. There is a method of roasting in Malaysia which adds butter during roasting in the manufacture of various so-called Ipoh White Coffee.
Beans roasted darker browns begin to taste more like the method of roasting than the original flavor. Dark roasts such as French or Vienna Roasts tend to completely eclipse the original flavor. Roasting to whatever degree, while adding stronger flavor does not effect the amount of caffeine bean.
Fry pan roasting was popular in the 19th century, since the beans are usually shipped and purchased still in their green state. You've just poured The green coffee beans in a pan and roast it in the kitchen. This process took a great deal of skill to do in a consistent manner. Fry pan roasting became much less popular when vacuum sealing pre-roasted coffee was perfected. However, in order to vacuum seal roasted beans, you had to wait for them to stop emitting CO2, as roasted beans make for a few days after the roasting process. What this has meant that vacuum sealed coffee was always just a little stale the flavors begin to turn bitter and deteriorate in just about a week after roasting.
Home roasting is once again becoming popular in the creation of computerized drum roasters which help simplify the process. There are some people who have found effective ways of roasting beans using their hot air pop corn makers.
The region bean is from as discussed the front is a major factor in the kind of flavor you can expect from the brew, although it is very true that 'new' or unexpected tastes come from each region.
Arabia and Africa grow their coffee beans at high altitudes in the rich black soils of Kenya, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia and Tanzania. The flavors of beans were unique and legendary status.
The Americas coffees are grown in near rainforest conditions in places like Colombia, Costa Rica and Guatemala. Coffees of the Americas tend to be very well balanced and aromatic.
The Pacifics includes coffees from Sumatra, Java, New Guinea and Sulawesi, which are different taste of the island they come from.
Then there are the exotics such as certified Jamaica Blue Mountain and Hawaiian Kona certified. These are rare indeed and can go for as much as $ 60.00 per pound.
