Master Your Brew with Lab-Tested Gear & Beans

When asking Where do coffee beans come from? In terms of geography, the answer is the coffee belt, a narrow region around the equator between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. This zone spans Latin America, Africa, and Asia, providing the ideal climate and conditions coffee plants need:

• Altitude: Between 500 to 2,500 meters, the altitude greatly affects bean density and flavor complexity.
• Temperature: Arabica thrives in 15-24°C; Robusta prefers warmer 24-30°C.
• Rainfall: Annual precipitation between 1,200 to 2,500 mm is ideal, with dry seasons for harvesting and drying.
• Soil: Volcanic, well-drained soils enrich beans with unique minerals.
