Whether you call it joe, java, cuppa, liquid energy, or brew, if you are part of the 62% of Americans who drink coffee on a daily basis, that first morning cup sets the tone for the rest of your day.
All coffee is brewed from the “bean” – it’s actually the pit or the stone – of the coffea plant’s cherry. Two common species of coffee plants are valued for their beans: Coffea arabica, which produces the arabica bean, and Coffea canephora, which produces the robusta bean. In general, arabica beans make the best cup of coffee.
“Arabica beans are the most popular type of coffee bean, and they account for approximately 60% of the world’s coffee bean supply. Most of the remaining 40% are robusta beans.” Africa and Indonesia grow the world’s supply of robusta beans.
