Question: Can anybody give a list of terms that are related to coffee?
I was assigned in our group to make a list of terms, with definition, for our Investigatory Research Project and I was hoping if anyone could give me some terms that are related to coffee. Thanks.

Well i would saythe terms would be
Grades of Coffee
In some countries this letter system is used, but it is not uniform. Some examples of this are (with the highest to lowest grades for coffee)
Kenya: AA, A, B, etc. and
Columbia: Supremo, excelso.

"European" Coffee Names

Many coffees that are purchased have words on them like French, Italian, Continental, Viennese, etc. These words have nothing to do with the coffee's origin but with the roast. These "European" roasts tend to be darker than most others, but one should not assume that French Roast coffee comes from France.

Different Market Names of Coffee
The difference between Sumatra coffee and Oaxaca coffee is not just flavor. The difference is in where they are grown. Sumatra's name comes from the Indonesian island of Sumatra and Oaxaca comes from the region in Mexico. There are literally hundreds of different names for coffee that are named after the region from which they are grown.

Coffee Blend Names
Most of the coffee words that you hear are related to blend names. A blend is the mixture of two or more coffees together. These mixtures have names all their own which a lot of people are familiar with. Some of these blends give clues as to which coffees are involved. For example, Mocha-Java is a combination of Yemeni mocha coffee and Java from Indonesia.This kind of blend is intended to enhance the flavor since these two kinds of coffee have contrasting flavors that taste good when blended together.Another type of blend is when expensive coffee is blended with inexpensive coffee. This is done primarily to make more money. This doesn't, however, mean that the coffee tastes bad. It simply allows coffee sellers to sell more coffee at a more reasonable price. You might know some of these:
Jamaican Blue Mountain blends
Hawaiian Kona blends.
Hope that this might help you.



espresso - strong black coffee brewed by forcing hot water under pressure through finely ground coffee beans. This standard 30ml extraction is used as a base for most other coffees.
