## What You'll Find on BrewFYI

BrewFYI is a comprehensive coffee reference covering 72 coffee varieties, 20 origin countries, 21 brew methods, and 120 expert guides. The database spans the entire coffee journey -- from seed variety and terroir through processing, roasting, and extraction science.

### Coffee Species and Varieties

All commercial coffee comes from two primary species: **Coffea arabica** (60-70% of world production) and **Coffea canephora** (Robusta, 30-40%). Arabica is prized for its complex flavors and aromatic diversity, while Robusta offers higher caffeine content, greater disease resistance, and a stronger, more bitter profile often used in espresso blends.

BrewFYI catalogs 72 distinct varieties with genetic lineage, flavor profiles, and growing requirements:

| Category | Notable Varieties | Characteristics |
|----------|------------------|-----------------|
| Ethiopian Heirlooms | Gesha/Geisha, Yirgacheffe Landrace, Sidamo | Floral, jasmine, bergamot, complex acidity |
| Bourbon Lineage | Bourbon, Caturra, Catuai, Pacas, Villa Sarchi | Sweet, balanced, caramel, fruit notes |
| Typica Lineage | Typica, Maragogipe, Kona, Blue Mountain | Clean, sweet, mild body |
| Hybrid/Modern | Castillo, Colombia, Catimor, Sarchimor | Disease resistant, improving cup quality |
| Robusta | Robusta, Conilon | High caffeine, earthy, bitter, crema |

### Processing Methods

Post-harvest processing dramatically affects flavor. The same coffee cherry processed differently produces entirely different cup profiles:

| Method | Process | Flavor Impact |
|--------|---------|---------------|
| Washed (Wet) | Pulp removed, fermented, washed, dried | Clean, bright acidity, clarity of origin |
| Natural (Dry) | Whole cherry dried on raised beds | Fruity, wine-like, heavy body |
| Honey | Pulp removed, mucilage left during drying | Sweet, balanced, complex |
| Anaerobic | Sealed fermentation tanks, controlled environment | Intense, unique fermentation flavors |
| Wet-Hulled (Giling Basah) | Partially dried, hulled wet (Indonesia) | Earthy, low acidity, full body |

### Brew Methods

BrewFYI covers 21 brewing methods with optimal parameters for water temperature, grind size, brew ratio, and extraction time. Each method extracts different compounds from ground coffee, producing distinct flavor profiles:

| Method | Type | Brew Time | Grind | Best For |
|--------|------|-----------|-------|----------|
| Espresso | Pressure (9 bar) | 25-30s | Fine | Concentrated, crema, milk drinks |
| Pour Over (V60) | Drip/Percolation | 2:30-3:30 | Medium-fine | Clarity, origin character |
| French Press | Immersion | 4:00 | Coarse | Full body, oils, texture |
| AeroPress | Pressure/Immersion | 1:00-2:00 | Medium-fine | Versatile, clean, portable |
| Cold Brew | Cold immersion | 12-24h | Coarse | Smooth, low acidity, sweet |
| Moka Pot | Steam pressure | 4-5 min | Fine-medium | Strong, stovetop espresso |
| Chemex | Drip/Percolation | 3:30-4:30 | Medium-coarse | Clean, bright, paper filtered |
| Siphon | Vacuum | 1:30-2:00 | Medium | Theatrical, clean, aromatic |

### Roast Levels

Roast level determines the balance between origin character and roast-developed flavors. Lighter roasts preserve acidity and origin terroir; darker roasts emphasize body, bitterness, and caramelization:

| Level | Internal Temp | Characteristics |
|-------|--------------|-----------------|
| Light | 180-205C | Bright acidity, floral, fruity, tea-like body |
| Medium-Light | 210-220C | Balanced, caramel sweetness, origin + roast |
| Medium | 220-230C | Balanced body, chocolate, nuts, rounded acidity |
| Medium-Dark | 230-240C | Bittersweet, cocoa, reduced acidity, fuller body |
| Dark | 240C+ | Smoky, bitter, oily surface, minimal origin character |

### Origin Countries

Coffee is grown in the "Bean Belt" between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. BrewFYI covers 20 origin countries with altitude ranges, harvest seasons, typical processing methods, and regional flavor profiles.

Top producers include Brazil (world's largest), Vietnam (Robusta leader), Colombia, Ethiopia (birthplace of coffee), Indonesia, Honduras, India, Uganda, Mexico, and Guatemala. Specialty coffee increasingly highlights single-origin and micro-lot traceable sourcing.
