Coffea
canephora (Robusta coffee. Syn Coffea robusta) is a form of coffee,
which originated in Central and Western Sub-Saharan Africa. It is grown mainly in Africa and Brazil, where it is often called Conillon. It is also grown in Southeast Asia where French colonists introduced in the late 19 Century. In
recent years in Vietnam, which produces only robusta Brazil, India,
Indonesia, more than the world's largest exporter has become. Approximately one third of the world's coffee production is produced Robusta.
Canephora is easier to maintain than other major types of coffee, Coffea arabica, and because it is cheaper to produce. Since arabica beans are often superior to, generally restricted to use as filler in low-quality robusta coffee blends. It is also often found in instant coffee and in espresso blends to the formation of "crema" to promote. Robusta has about twice as much caffeine as Arabica.
Description
Coffea canephora grown in West and Central Africa is the interior. It was not until the 19th centuries recognized as Coffea hundred years after Coffea arabica. The plant has a shallow root system and grows as a robust tree or shrub to about 10 meters. It flowers irregularly, with approximately 10-11 months for cherries to ripen, producing oval beans. The Robusta plant has a higher efficiency than those of Coffea arabica. Because it is less susceptible to disease and pests, robusta has much less of herbicides and pesticides than Arabica. This can be done by increasing proportion of caffeine.
After burning, a distinctive earthy flavor tends canephora, usually comes with more bitterness than Arabica. This powerful flavor can be desirable in a mixture of his perceived "strength" and "Finish" felt in the Italian coffee culture. In France, mixed with about 70% Arabica and Robusta is 30% sold as "traditional" coffee. Normally these or straight robusta coffees are brewed in parts even with warm milk in a cup or bowl mix the drink.
