The central location of the ninth sub-island.

Sun Fei looked at the coffee tree in surprise.

Gu Kaiwen responded, "It's indeed a coffee tree." Brother Sun, didn't you find out when you did your investigation before?"

Sun Fei complained, "We are investigating whether there are animals, and we arrange a drone to scan it through an infrared thermal detector, and it really can't scan the coffee tree." ”

After finishing speaking, Sun Fei looked at Zhang Weihai, "Teacher Zhang, can coffee trees survive on such a small island?"

Zhang Weihai pointed to the coffee tree and said, "Aren't they alive and well?"

As the saying goes: hearing is false, seeing is believing.

Now the facts are in sight!

"Boss Gu, is there anything special about these coffee trees?" Sun Fei asked, what did he mean if it was just an ordinary coffee tree, what did Gu Kaiwen call them to come over?

Gu Kaiwen pointed to the coffee trees and said, "Although I don't know much about coffee, their quality is very good. ”

"Oh?" Sun Fei was surprised.

Gu Kaiwen handed the coffee cherries in his hand to Sun Fei, "Can you smell it?"

Sun Fei took the red coffee cherry, he sniffed it for a moment, and then asked, "Is there any problem?"

"It looks like you don't drink coffee. Gu Kaiwen complained.

"I don't really drink much coffee, I generally like to drink tea. Sun Fei responded.

Gu Kaiwen sighed, "These coffee cherries smell a faint chocolate aroma, a little bit of milky flavor, and you can even smell the sweetness of ripe fruits, their quality is definitely not bad." ”

Sun Fei complained, "It's not bad, it's not bad, you called us here to watch this?"

Gu Kaiwen smiled and waved his hand, "You don't understand, I don't blame you." You go ahead and measure, I'll collect the beans first and taste them in the evening. ”

Sun Fei and Zhang Weihai left directly, their research was not yet complete.

Gu Kaiwen collects coffee cherries, he only collects those red coffee cherries, because those are ripe coffee cherries.

Approaching four o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Kaiwen weighed it, he collected about half a catty of coffee cherries, he did not continue to pick, with these coffee cherries, Gu Kaiwen returned to the large freighter.

On the large freighter, Gu Kaiwen was connected to the satellite data network, and he searched the Internet about the processing of coffee cherries and how to process them into coffee beans.

There are two main ways to process coffee cherries, which are drying and washing.

Among them, the drying method is to dry the coffee cherries through natural sunlight, which is more limited and easy to be affected by the weather environment, but has a natural mellow taste, soft aroma, and more gum.

As the name suggests, the washing method is cleaned and screened by the sink and there is also a natural drying process, but the drying method takes two weeks, and the washing method only takes a few days, and then it is dried by a machine.

Although the washed coffee beans are a little weaker in terms of body, they are more intense in terms of aroma and at the same time make the acidity of the coffee more active.

Both methods have their own benefits, but the washing method is more used because it has fewer limitations, is less dependent on the weather environment, and is easier to meet the needs of industrial production.

Gu Kaiwen did not choose the drying method or the washing method, and he was not a large-scale production, but a small-scale trial.

According to the information investigated, Gu Kaiwen first poured the coffee cherries into the water, first removed the floating coffee cherries, and then removed the red flesh, as well as the endocarp and silver peel of the remaining coffee cherries.

These processes are simple to say, but in fact, they almost made Gu Kaiwen crazy, he originally collected half a catty, but in the end he only processed a little bit of coffee cherries.

Because it's just too much trouble!

After all, the normal means of processing should be to peel through a machine, and the operation of peeling by hand is completely an act of intellectual retardation.

But Gu Kaiwen can't help it, where is there a coffee cherry peeling machine now?

After nearly two hours of busy work, Gu Kaiwen roasted 60 coffee beans in the oven, these coffee-colored coffee beans looked full of grains, and the smell was also very strong.

Gu Kaiwen's plan for making coffee beans is more inclined to the washing method, and the coffee beans have a stronger aroma.

"Boss Gu, it's time to eat!" Sun Fei walked into the back kitchen and greeted Gu Kaiwen.

Gu Kaiwen put down the coffee beans that had just been roasted.

Sun Fei saw Gu Kaiwen's movements, and he asked, "You finally got those coffees?"

"Well, I barely got some, let's eat first, and we'll taste it together later. Gu Kaiwen responded.

"Yes. Sun Fei suddenly used the Shengqing dialect.

Today's dinner is still seafood, what else can you eat in the sea?

After a seafood dinner, Gu Kaiwen beckoned Sun Fei, Zhang Weihai, and Xiong Dabao to the back kitchen together, Gu Kaiwen had just borrowed the oven in the back kitchen to roast coffee beans.

Back kitchen.

Gu Kaiwen is using a pepper grinder to grind coffee beans, although there is a coffee machine on board, Gu Kaiwen has roasted a total of 60 coffee beans, and throwing them into the coffee machine is not enough to stuff the machine seams!

The pepper grinder grinds coffee beans well, and the results are similar after grinding them a few more times.

A few minutes later, Gu Kaiwen brewed a small pot of hand-poured coffee, and then divided four small cups out, he beckoned, "Come on, let's taste it." ”

Sun Fei answered on the side, "Although I don't drink coffee often, but you don't add creamer or sugar, is it really delicious?"

Xiong Dabao answered, "This pure way can better taste the advantages and disadvantages of coffee." After finishing speaking, Xiong Dabao blew on the coffee and took a sip.

Sun Fei took a sip in the way of Xiong Dabao.

Zhang Weihai had already tasted the coffee directly, and after he took a sip, he closed his eyes to feel the taste.

Gu Kaiwen tasted coffee last, to be honest, Gu Kaiwen usually doesn't drink much coffee, but when the coffee is eaten, he seems to have turned into a whale, feeling the freedom of the sun and the ocean in the blue waters.

This feeling is different from that of pure mountain tea, but it also has a soothing effect.

A small cup of coffee was drunk for a moment, and none of the four spoke, all of them were silent, obviously reminiscing about how they had felt before.

Nearly three minutes later, Sun Fei was the first to speak, "it, it, it, God is so unfair, right?"

Zhang Weihai looked at Sun Fei suspiciously, "Feizai, what kind of nerves do you have?"

Xiong Dabao also looked at Sun Fei suspiciously.

Sun Fei looked at Gu Kaiwen, and he complained, "Boss Gu, are you going to sell these coffees at a high price again?"

Gu Kaiwen nodded with a smile, "Of course!"

Sun Fei showed a 'sure enough' expression, and he snorted, "Then what price are you going to sell these coffees for?"
