咖啡公豆母豆 Peaberry and Flat Beans
咖啡公豆母豆 -常聽人說，把咖啡「圓豆(Peaberry)」稱為「公豆」，並把較常見的「平豆(Flat Beans)」稱為「母豆」。然而，咖啡本身是雌雄同株，每一朵咖啡花同時擁有雌雄兩種器官，所以便沒有所謂的公樹、母樹的區別，也就沒有所謂的「公豆」和「母豆」。
“Male” and “female” coffee beans – we often hear people say that coffee “Peaberry” is called “male” beans and the more common “flat” beans is called “female” beans. However, coffee itself is monoecious, and each coffee flower has both male and female organs at the same time, so there is no so-called difference between male and female trees, and there is no so-called “male” bean and “female” bean.
通常每一顆咖啡果實內會看到兩顆半圓形的豆子，稱為平豆。但也有少數情形，內部的種子沒有分裂，而呈現了只有一顆橢圓形的圓豆。據咖啡農說，生長在咖啡樹樹枝末端的咖啡豆，比較有機會出現圓豆。或在生長過程中遭遇到病蟲害，咖啡果實內部發育不健全，因為物競天擇，而只長出一顆圓豆。一般咖啡圓豆約佔一顆咖啡樹上果實的5%~10%。下次在磨豆前，數一數圓豆的比例，好像別有一番樂趣~
Usually two semi-circular beans, called flat beans, are seen inside each coffee berry. But there are also a few cases where the inner seed is not split, but there is only one oval round bean. According to coffee farmers, the coffee beans that grow at the ends of the branches of coffee trees are more likely to have peaberries. Or encountering pests and diseases during the growth process, the internal development of coffee berries is not healthy, and only one round bean grows due to natural selection. Generally, peaberries is about 5% to 10% of the fruit on a coffee tree. Next time, before grinding the beans, count the ratio of peaberries, it seems to be a lot of fun.
或許來聊聊公豆咖啡煮法，也是個樂趣喔。
