What to Avoid in Green Coffee Beans

If you are selecting premium green coffee beans for roasting, it is important to know what to avoid to make the best choice:

• Watch out for beans that are faded. Green coffee beans can become faded if they have a higher moisture content and are dried in a warehouse. If they don't dry in direct sunlight, it will cause molding on the inside, which leads to a pale color.
• Avoid green coffee beans that have any type of insect damage. This can look like bruising, small holes, or yellow spots on the green coffee beans. This will cause a salty taste to the brew when roasted.
• Don't purchase green coffee beans that are not yet ripened. They will look slightly greenish with a sticky skin, and they will cause the roast to have no acidity with grassy flavors.
