In the busy city life, coffee shops have become an important place for people to relax and find spiritual sustenance. Coffee, as the soul of coffee shops, hides a rich variety and unique flavor. Do you really understand it? This article will bring you a journey of exploring the mystery of coffee, take you to know the different types of coffee, and use the coffee classification diagram to make it clear at a glance.

We must understand that there are many types of coffee, which are mainly classified according to the way the coffee beans are processed, the degree of roasting, and the brewing method. According to the way the coffee beans are processed, we can roughly divide coffee into two categories: native and secondary processed. Native types refer to coffee beans that are simply processed after direct picking. They retain the most original taste and flavor, while secondary processed types are specially processed to highlight a specific flavor or reduce the sense of defects.

We use the coffee classification diagram to interpret the characteristics of various coffees in detail.

Arabica coffee : As the most common type of coffee in the world, Arabica is known for its balanced taste and slightly sour and sweet aroma. In terms of coffee bean processing, Arabica is usually dried to maintain its soft flavor.

Robusta coffee : Robusta is known for its rich aroma and high caffeine content. This coffee bean is usually used to make espresso or instant coffee. Its unique rich taste can withstand the test of high pressure and high temperature.

Sun-dried coffee : Sun-dried coffee is a type of coffee bean that has been naturally dried in the sun for a long time. It has a rich and full flavor, with distinct fruity and nutty aromas. This treatment method allows the coffee beans to fully absorb the flavor of the sun during the maturation process, presenting a unique taste.

Washed coffee : Washed coffee is coffee beans processed by the water washing method. It has a clean and refreshing taste and bright acidity. The water washing method can effectively remove impurities and defects in the coffee beans, highlighting the fresh flavor of the coffee beans themselves.

In addition, there are many types of coffee with regional characteristics, such as Yirgacheffe in Africa, Blue Mountain in Central America, and Mandheling in Indonesia. Each type of coffee beans has its own unique growing environment, processing method and taste characteristics. These differences make each type of coffee unique.

After understanding the classification and characteristics of various coffees, let’s talk about brewing methods. Different brewing methods will have a significant impact on the taste of coffee. Hand-brewed coffee can fully display the delicate taste and rich aroma of coffee beans; while espresso uses high-pressure steam to instantly extract the essence of coffee, forming a rich and mellow taste.

In this coffee exploration journey, we not only learned about the classification and taste characteristics of coffee, but more importantly, we learned how to appreciate the unique charm of each type of coffee. Whether it is the first cup of refreshing coffee in the morning or the leisure time shared with friends in the afternoon, each type of coffee has its own unique way of companionship and attitude towards life.

In the future, when you walk into a cafe and are faced with a wide variety of coffees, I believe you will be able to choose the one that suits you best based on your taste and mood. Let us enjoy this wonderful coffee journey together!
