Disclosure: I received a Millstone Coffee Bean to Cup Tasting Kit for my use and to review. As always, the opinions are my own.
I learned that acidity keeps the coffee from tasting dull or muted!

“During the roasting process, the bean swells to twice its size, turns brown, and begins to secrete essential coffee oil.” Mmmmm. I can smell that in my head.
I learned “the higher the bean grows the more acidic it is”.

After the beans become bright and crimson in color, the ripest ones are pulled from the tree.
I had no idea that coffee started out as a fruit.
During the roasting process, the beans grows to half it’s size!

I learned that only the brightest are picked, and they are crimson/red. Beautiful!

I didn’t know coffee beans turned red! I also didn’t know Millstone had so many flavors. I think I might need the Foglifter…with preschoolers, that sounds like a perfect morning cup to me!
A few things jumped out at me: I always thought the coffee bean was brown on the tree (maybe some are), but didn’t know the bean was inside the pod. I didn’t realize roasting times of the same bean made for completely different coffees. AND I think body is the most important thing to me–I didn’t realize there were so many things going into my senses enjoying a cup of coffee!
