my name is lennon. i’m a green coffee specialist. what is a green coffee bean? green coffee, it is going to be unique for where it’s from, how high up a mountain it’s grown, when it’s harvested, how it’s processed. those beans are going to hold a lot of information about what we’re going to get in a cup.
starbucks pike place roast coffee, when a roaster gets a coffee they are making sure that heat is applied specifically, and allow that coffee to develop and go through the maillard reaction and the sugar browning and caramelization.â that’s where we get our recipes and the starbucks flavor that our customers love.
