In this article you will learn about the most commonly used types Coffee by people around the globe and why it matters to you.

How do we get Coffee beans?

 First let us know about the Coffee plant itself. Coffee falls under the Coffea plant species. There are more than 100 species of Coffee plants around the world but among them only two species are most commonly used commercially.


The Coffee tree has an average height of 15 to 30 feet. The tree only begins to bear fruit after 3 to 5 years after being planted and it continuous to produce fruits for
5 to 20 years depending upon the type of the plant, area and how well its cared. The fruit takes around 9 to 11 months to ripen varying on the species which then can be used for Coffee bean production.


                                    




Types of Coffee and Why does it matter?

 As everything differs according to its types so does Coffee.

The difference in the variety of Coffee species is the caffeine level that we can get form the drinks we make from its beans along with acidity and bitterness which also depends on the
processing, roasting and also on how you decide to brew it which we will talk about on another article.

Now let’s talk about Coffee types.

The most commonly used Coffee species are Coffea Arabica and Coffea Robusta (Coffea is the scientific name for coffee plant species).

Even though they are both Coffee plants they differ very much from its growing habitat and to its taste when it arrives your cup so that’s why Coffee types matter for everybody.

  • ·        Liberica Coffee
