11. Chaff [tʃæf]:

Chaff is the thin outer skin of coffee beans that detaches during roasting. It needs to be removed as it can affect air quality and the flavor of roasted coffee.

12. Chaff collector [tʃæf kəˈlɛktər]:

A chaff collector is a device in the roaster that gathers the chaff separated from the beans during roasting. It keeps the roaster clean and prevents clogging.

13. Charge temperature [tʃɑrdʒ ˈtɛmpərətʃər]:

Charge temperature is the roaster's temperature when the beans are introduced. This initial temperature affects how the beans absorb heat and develop during roasting.

14. Chimney [ˈtʃɪmni]:

The chimney is the duct that expels exhaust gases from the roaster. It removes smoke and vapor generated during roasting, protecting the work environment and enhancing coffee quality.

15. Conduction (heat transfer) [kənˈdʌkʃən (hiːt ˈtrænsfɜr)]:

Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between surfaces. In roasting, heat is conducted from the drum surface to the coffee beans.

16. Contact (heat transfer) [ˈkɑntækt (hiːt ˈtrænsfɜr)]:

Contact heat transfer refers to heat transfer through direct contact between surfaces, similar to conduction.

17. Convection (heat transfer) [kənˈvɛkʃən (hiːt ˈtrænsfɜr)]:

Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of air or fluid. During roasting, hot air circulates around the beans to transfer heat.

18. Cooling phase [ˈkuːlɪŋ feɪz]

The cooling phase is the process of reducing the temperature of roasted beans to stop further development and stabilize their structure.

19. Cooling time [ˈkuːlɪŋ taɪm]

Cooling time is the duration needed to cool the beans after roasting. This time affects the final quality and flavor of the coffee.

Specialty Coffee

"COVID initiated an unexpected crisis, causing the world to stall and shut down. Thus, we must live slower and capture the best moments in the darkest of times. I wondered whether my love for coffee has ripened over this period. I began devoting my time and passion towards researching the field of specialty coffee. I realized the value of coffee is more than just caffeine. It embodies a culture, a taste of different countries that diversify itself in every nation with a history of development dated back to the 19th century."

 

Slowly, the “sophisticated knowledge” I once pride myself on shattered. I had been so shortsighted and so assumptious. I never cared about where the products of my passion came from, knew nothing about growing to preliminary processing, roasting, preserving, and brewing a great cup of coffee. And I know, there are many presumptuous people all around us, just like me a few years back. They never knew what a great experience coffee could be despite it being indispensable in our lives. ​ As my appreciation for coffee reaches its peak, I feel delighted and satisfied sipping every cup of high-quality espresso extracted from Vietnam Fine Robusta beans. If you could experience every stage of the coffee value chain, from the early plantations to a cup of coffee, you will feel the same way as i do. This is the biggest motivation for us to pursue our dream of bringing high-quality Robusta beans to coffee lovers around the world. Trust me! The nature-gifted Fine Robusta that Vietnam has proudly developed shall be a great addition to your collection of specialty coffee. ​ iO Coffee looks forward to the companionship of all partners and the coffee-loving community on this wonderful journey. ​

 

Sincerely,

Ngo Huan Trung
