Comprehend The Journey Of Your

Introduction

If you enjoy coffee, you are aware that freshly ground coffee beans produce the tastiest brew. The Coffea arabica tree and the Coffea canephora tree are the two primary varieties of coffee trees from which those beans are yearly gathered.

The most common coffee variety, Arabica, accounts for around 70% of the market. Although they can be fussy and challenging to grow, the end product is a gentle and aromatic coffee bean that the majority of people adore. The other popular variety, canephora, is more often referred to as robusta. It makes up about 30% of the world coffee market. Typically it has a much higher caffeine content and is used in blends or to make instant coffee.

There are as many as 100 different species of coffee trees, though the majority of the world's coffee beans come from just two of them. The life of a coffee tree is 20 to 30 years, during which time cherries grow in a continuous cycle. Two mature coffee beans are stored inside the numerous layers of each cherry.

Up to 4 years may pass after a new coffee tree is planted before it blooms and bears fruit. The journey a coffee bean takes from the time it is grown until it reaches a retailer near you might span for months. Grab a cup of your preferred variant of OKBF coffee and follow us as we trace the path taken by a coffee bean from crop to cup!

#1 Planting The Seed

The first step starts with the planting of the teeny-weeny seed in the land filled with a good amount of sunlight and in a mountainous region.

There are a lot of regions where coffee is grown, but specifically, it flourishes near the equator as the sun plays a major role.

#2 Harvesting The Coffee Bean

The following step after the plantation is harvesting the seed, it usually takes 3 to 4 years for a coffee plant to reach a food-bearing age.

Once they mature the red cherry fruits are harvested from the plant. The cherries are usually picked by either hand or machine, but as the plantations are done usually in the mountainous regions hand-picking is preferred by many. OKBF coffee beans also are hand-picked.

#3 Coffee Beans From Coffee Cherries

Inside the luscious red cherry fruit is the green coffee seed which needs to be removed from the flesh of the fruit to get the bean. Various steps and methods are used for it.

The most used and traditional method is to spread the beans in the sun to dry them out. The beans need to be pestled gently from time to time to dehydrate them.

This process is done to remove the cherry shell and get the end product which is the coffee bean. But wait the bean isn't still ready to make a fresh brewing java out of it and we are still halfway into the process.
