The secret of coffee bean oil formation: analyzing the magical oil production process in coffee beans

The oil in coffee beans is a magical substance that gives coffee its unique aroma and taste. These oils are mainly composed of fatty acids contained in coffee beans, and their production process is also a very complex and sophisticated process.

First, coffee beans accumulate a lot of energy and nutrients during their growth. When the fruit matures, chemical changes begin to occur inside and oil is gradually formed. This process is affected by many factors, including soil conditions, climate environment, and cultivation methods.

Secondly, during the roasting process, the oil inside the coffee beans begins to be released and interacts with other compounds. This stage is called "volatile matter generation", which includes many organic acids, ketones and aldehydes. These volatile substances give coffee a rich and complex aroma.

Finally, during brewing, the oils in the coffee powder are extracted when water comes into contact with it and dissolved in the water. These oils give the coffee a rich taste and strong flavor. In addition, the oils can interact with other ingredients such as caffeine to give the coffee a certain bitterness and sourness.
