The Freshly Harvested Coffee Bean


A freshly harvested and Kaldi.com roasted coffee bean is the perfect beginning to a pot of coffee. The coffee bean must be properly processed in order to create the ideal coffee bean. There are many layers to the coffee bean, and each one serves a purpose throughout the growing progression. Each coffee bean that comes from Kaldi Gourmet Coffee Roasters is hand picked and freshly roasted before you receive it.

When a coffee bean plant starts its life, it is grown as a large shrub or tree. The plant that the coffee bean grows on is usually kept at a height of 6 – 8 feet. When the plant has matured, the coffee bean begins to develop inside of the fruit. The fruit of the tree that bears the coffee bean is known as the “cherry”. The coffee bean bearing fruit resembles the cherry only in its look and is not consumed. Kaldi Gourmet Coffee Roasters has a coffee bean selection that is straight from the fruit.

Once the fruit bearing the coffee bean is ripe, each one is usually hand-picked by farm workers. Sometimes the coffee bean fruit is plucked from the plant by a machine, although this method removes fruit that may not be ripe. By hand-picking the coffee bean fruit the life of the plant and amount of coffee bean cherries it produces is extended.
The cherry sits on a stem, similar to other fruits that grow on trees. The ripen coffee bean cherries are plucked from their stems and gathered for pulping. Each coffee bean cherry is carefully inspected for ripeness before being processed, guaranteeing a great coffee bean through Kaldi.com. The coffee bean cherry needs to be process

The coffee bean remains inside until the fruit is processed in a machine that removes the unwanted exterior. The coffee bean is protected by a thick skin coating the pulp layer. The pulp layer protects the coffee bean and is actually softer in consistency which makes it easy to be removed. The pulper machine separates the pulp exterior from the hardy little coffee bean inside. There are usually two coffee beans in side of the cherry, but there can sometimes be just one coffee bean. Each coffee bean from Kaldi Gourmet Coffee Roasters is freshly roasted and shipped to you after they receive it.

Cherries that produce just a single coffee bean are known as peaberries. Many people claim that the peaberry coffee bean tastes differently than a regular coffee bean. In fact, the peaberry coffee bean tastes almost exactly the same as a regular coffee bean. The change in coffee bean is said o be due to the different shape that the peaberry coffee bean has. The shape causes the coffee bean to roast differently resulting in a slight variant in taste. Kaldi Gourmet Coffee Roasters will roast any coffee bean to perfection, peaberry or otherwise.
