"Well, these coffee trees I have here are really good, right?"

The next morning, Lao Liu led Quan Zhuyan and they walked around the coffee garden.

"Mr. Liu, I really didn't expect these coffee trees of yours to be so special. Jeon Joo-yeon said with emotion.

"I've never seen any coffee trees that grow so tall and hang so many coffee berries, aren't you worried about affecting the quality of the coffee berries?"

"I was worried about it at first, but I have a lot of earthworms on my farm. Now you can't see it, but there's a lot of it under the soil. Lao Liu said with a smile.

"Look at the soil over here, the skin and pulp that we dumped here the last time we picked it, and it's a little different in color from the surrounding soil, it's a little darker. ”

"Coffee trees don't have such a high thirst for fertilizer, and the manure of these earthworms is the best organic fertilizer. Therefore, for these coffee trees, they do not have to worry about the supply of fertilizer during the whole growth process. ”

"And the soils are also very good at storing water, and it's the dry season, but the water that remains in the soil is also able to get the coffee trees through the dry season. ”

"It's a small harvest season, but judging from the fruit hanging now, I can pick no less cherry coffee. In terms of yield, it will not be less than the last time I picked it. ”

"It's really amazing, it's the first time I've seen a real coffee tree. Wang Shasha said with emotion.

"If you come back during the harvest season, it's going to be a lot of fun. Although cherry coffee picking can be a bit tiring, the whole process of processing these cherry coffees is very interesting. Lao Liu said with a smile.

"Miss Quan, our cherry coffee is completely washed in the traditional Kenyan water wash and processed by secondary fermentation. We will be strict with each process. ”

"Let's go, I'll show you the green coffee beans in my warehouse. In terms of quality, our requirements are very strict. Any flawed green beans, we don't put in bags. ”

After Lao Liu finished speaking, he led them to the warehouse.

Masika on the side was very emotional, and the boss said it was awesome. Those cherry coffees are so good that you don't need to be picked. When it comes to the boss's mouth, it becomes everyone's work more serious, which is really powerful.

Although he knows some Chinese, he has not yet mastered the word "flickering". If you master it, you will definitely give Lao Liu a "big fool" label.

But where did Jeon Joo-yeon know about these things, she came to the warehouse and opened two bags casually. In terms of the quality of these green beans, there is no problem, and there are really zero defects.

I've seen this standard of green beans before, but they are all above the boutique level, not to mention the selection of each one. But it's all small packaging, where is it like here now, take a big bag and pack it casually.

It can be said that this morning's visit has somewhat subverted her perception of coffee planting. It's no wonder that there are such special coffee beans here, and the way they are grown here is very special.

"Yesterday you were so tired, you went to bed early after dinner. Lao Liu said with a smile.

"So I'm going to have a good time tonight, and it's fun to have a bonfire here. Now I'm going to make you some coffee, don't measure my craft with the eyes of a professional barista, I'm just making it drinkable. ”

"Mr. Liu, do you have spare equipment? I want to rush some too. Also, can you fry some more coffee beans? I'd like to see how you roast them. Jeon Joo-yeon said.

Lao Liu smiled and nodded, "These are all right, originally I also wanted to fry some, let's taste these freshly fried coffee beans." ”

Now he is very satisfied with Jeon Joo-yeon, and the most fundamental reason is Jeon Joo-yeon's attitude towards work.

She doesn't care about a lot of other things, she just cares about coffee. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, you must be waiting for your own arrangement, rather than being so eager to put forward your own concerns.

The wok was set up again, and when he fried again this time, he had a more handy feeling. Don't look at just frying in Du Jianing's coffee shop for a few hours, it may not be helpful for others, for him, he can improve his roasting skills a lot.

There are two pots of fried in total, one pot is shallow baking standard, which is used to drink for a while. Another pot of deep baking standards, that is, in line with the standards he provided to Jeon Joo-yeon.

He had to let Jeon Joo-yeon know that the coffee beans he offered her were stable in terms of standards. Of course, if she wants to bake it by the machine herself, that's also her freedom.

The frying time is not very long, the machine takes a little longer to cool down and pack. But it's also a very interesting thing for them.

Especially Lao Liu's method of frying beans, Wang Shasha looked very interested, and her two hands also turned around with the void.

Liu Wenrui's biggest gain from returning to China this time is that he has found a new market for his coffee beans and can build a coffee shop with his brothers. But for the improvement of coffee roasting and brewing skills, that harvest is not small.

In the past, it was done behind closed doors, and there was no standard for comparison at all. After seeing Du Jianing's brewing techniques and the requirements for the degree of roasting of coffee beans, he had a standard to measure.

It can be said that the roasting standards of these coffee beans have been improved.

The set of brewing tools that he purchased later let Jeon Joo-yeon operate it, and he took out the original set that Franklin had left here.

Jeon Joo-yeon is very serious, don't look at her participation in the WBC competition, and don't consider hand-poured coffee. But as a barista, this craft is also a must-have.

And at her level, the craftsmanship of hand-poured coffee is not bad. Just like Du Jianing, although she participated in a pour-over coffee competition, making espresso was also a piece of cake.

It's just two different ways of making, and the two have their own focus.

Quan Zhuyan's brewing method is similar to his, and he also uses the steaming method of moistening powder. It's just that when it comes to watering, she chooses to cut off the flow.

This is the difference between techniques, anyway, after removing the filter, Lao Liu also smelled the fragrant smell of coffee.

Lao Liu took a sip and gave a thumbs up directly, "Awesome, really powerful." The first time I touched this bean, I still processed it by hand, and it tasted awesome. ”

"Mr. Liu, you praised it, but in fact, it is because of the good quality of your coffee beans. Well, that complex aroma, it's really intoxicating. After Quan Zhuyan finished speaking, she didn't have time to deal with Lao Liu, so she took a small sip and a small sip of coffee very seriously.

Wang Shasha and Xu Lu are also drinking, but their evaluation is only two words - delicious. If you ask them to evaluate it in depth, they won't be able to tell where it tastes.

After tasting the coffee, the two girls also looked at Lao Liu.

"You don't have to look at me so expectantly, I don't have such exquisite craftsmanship as Miss Quan. Lao Liu said with a wry smile.

That being said, he is not stage frightened. I also feel that my skills have improved, and now that Quan Zhuyan is still a professional, he also wants Quan Zhuyan to help him see what level he is now.

The previous treatment is almost the same, the difference is the watering just now. Lao Liu is poured in a straight stream, constantly flowing, and pouring in a circle.

"Mr. Liu's hand is very steady, and he is able to keep the water flowing so thinly, which leaves plenty of time for extraction. ”

After Lao Liu put the kettle down, Quan Zhuyan said.

"Actually, I think you're amazing, and I wanted to rush like that before. It's just that the water flow is too big for me to control, and I wash away a lot of coffee powder. Lao Liu shrugged his shoulders.

"Come, try me. I can only say that it tastes good, and I can't judge my work with the eyes of a professional barista. I only accept praise and not criticism. ”

Listening to Lao Liu's jokes, the three of them were happy.

This can be regarded as an advantage of Lao Liu, he is more easy-going in everything. That is, when you fight with Crane or are impulsive, it's a little scary.

Originally, Jeon Joo-yeon really didn't care very much, but after she took a small sip, her brows furrowed.

I took a glass of water to the side, rinsed my mouth carefully, and then picked up the coffee and continued to taste.

Lao Liu's side didn't notice Jeon Zhuyan's situation at all. Now he is completely intoxicated with his craft, and today's pot of coffee is even better than the ones brewed before.

It's just that under the taste of Wang Shasha and Xu Lu, it is still the same as just now. I can only taste the delicious taste, and the feeling of the side is gone.

"Mr. Liu, you are really amazing. If your brewing equipment is better and your water is better, I think you can go to the World Pour-over Coffee Competition. ”

After drinking the coffee, Jeon Joo-yeon said with emotion.

"Haha, I love to hear what I praise me the most. Du Jianing also said that if I work hard, I can still participate in the coffee bean roasting competition. I'm a serious coffee guy now. Lao Liu quipped.

"No, no, Mr. Liu, I'm not kidding. I really think your coffee brewing is great, really, better than me. Jeon Joo-yeon said seriously.

"The pot of coffee you brew is more fragrant and long-lasting than the pot I brewed. It's delicious, really. You should think carefully about developments in this area and look for better water. ”

Lao Liu was stunned, and he felt that Quan Zhuyan was really serious when he looked at him, and he was not joking. Could it be that the brewing skills of this three-legged cat are really great?
