So all the Coffee enthusiasts lets take a tour of Coffee World!!!



Coffee is one of the most popular drinks in the world, and can be prepared and presented in a variety of ways (e.g., espresso, French press, caffe latte). It is usually served hot, although iced coffee is common. The two most commonly grown coffee been types are C. Arabica and C. Robusta.


Life without coffee is like something without something … sorry,I haven’t had any coffee yet.

History

No one knows exactly how or when coffee was discovered, though there are many legends about its origin.

The story of Kaldi, the 9th-century Ethiopian goatherd who discovered coffee when he noticed how excited his goats became after eating the beans from a coffee plant, did not appear in writing until 1671 and is probably apocryphal. Kaldi reported his findings to the abbot of the local monastery, who

made a drink with the berries and found that it kept him alert through the long hours of evening prayer. The abbot shared his discovery with the other monks at the monastery, and knowledge of the energizing berries began to spread.As word moved east and coffee reached the Arabian peninsula, it began a journey which would bring these beans across the globe.

If you love coffee, have you ever stopped to wonder where does coffee come from?





Everyone recognizes a roasted coffee bean, but you might not recognize an actual coffee plant.

   Coffee trees are pruned short to conserve their energy and aid in harvesting, but can grow to more than 30 feet high. Each tree is covered with green, waxy leaves growing opposite each other in pairs. Coffee   cherries grow along the branches. Because it grows in a continuous cycle, it’s not unusual to see flowers, green fruit and ripe fruit simultaneously on a single tree.
                                                
Many people imagine coffee beans growing on a plant but what they don’t know is that coffee doesn’t start in the form of a bean at all. A coffee bean is actually a seed that comes from a specific type of berries. Therefore, we can say that coffee beans actually come from a fruit!

The berries are typically harvested by a machine or picked by hand. In order to get the beans out, the fruit of the berry needs to be removed and after that the beans need to be processed. It’s only after they have been dried, roasted and ground that they can be used to brew the humble zip. If unprocessed coffee seeds are planted, they can germinate and grow into coffee plants.

There are only two known ways of processing beans - dry processing, which is an older technique and wet processing, which is a more modern technique.When the processing is done, the beans are sorted and the good ones are put in bags and shipped. At this point they are called “green coffee beans.

However, there is one final step, roasting the beans.The roasting process is essential in coffee production. It requires the perfect timing and setting of temperature to provide the perfect product. While the beans roast, they will split and their coating will be released.

A darker roasted coffee generally does have more punch to its taste. This is because it has been roasted through to the second, or even in a few cases its third crack, allowing more of its natural oils to be released (the darker the roast the more oily the beans). This may give the impression of a stronger tasting coffee, but it is a myth to say that darker roasted coffee contains more caffeine than a medium roasted coffee. There is in fact a negligible difference in the caffeine content of a darker roasted coffee than its medium roasted counterpart, and therefore strength of the coffee from a caffeine perspective is broadly the same. So in short, darker roasted coffee will usually taste punchier and may give the impression of being a stronger coffee due to its taste, but won’t be any stronger as far as the caffeine content is concerned.




1. Coffee is a potent source of healthful antioxidants.

In fact, coffee shows more antioxidant activity than green tea and cocoa, two antioxidant superstars.Antioxidants fight inflammation, an underlying cause of many chronic conditions, including arthritis, atherosclerosis and many types of cancer.In other words, antioxidants help keep us healthy at the micro-level by protecting our cells from damage.

2. Caffeine provides a short-term memory boost.

Caffeine appears to affect the particular areas of the brain responsible for memory and concentration, providing a boost to short-term memory, although it’s not clear how long the effect lasts or how it may vary from person to person.

3. Your liver loves coffee.

It’s true: In addition to lowering the risk of liver cancer, coffee consumption has been linked to a lower incidence of cirrhosis, especially alcoholic cirrhosis.Scientists found an inverse relationship between coffee drinking and blood levels of liver enzymes. Elevated levels of liver enzymes typically reflect inflammation and damage to the liver. The more coffee subjects drank, the lower their levels of enzymes.

4. Coffee can enhance exercise performance.

Caffeine is a performance and endurance enhancer; not only does it fight fatigue, but it also strengthens muscle contraction, reduces the exerciser’s perception of pain, and increases fatty acids in the blood, which supports endurance.

Cultivation of Coffee


Coffee is grown in three regions of India with Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu forming the traditional coffee growing region, followed by the new areas developed in the non-traditional areas of Andhra Pradesh and Orissa in the eastern coast of the country and with a third region comprising of  the “Seven Sister States of India".

Coffee plants are now cultivated in over 70 countries, primarily in the equatorial regions of the Americas, Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, and Africa. As of 2018, Brazil was the leading grower of coffee beans, producing 35% of world total.
