This refers to a specific coffee grade based on a natural mutation where a cherry produces a single, rounded bean instead of the usual two flat seeds. During the milling process, these unique beans are sorted out from the rest of the harvest and separated into their own distinct lots, which are often prized by roasters for their density and concentrated cup profile.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Patricia Coffee Brewers","offers":[{"title":"200g cylinder \/ Whole Beans","offer_id":43887022342210,"sku":"RFC200G003","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g cylinder \/ Commercial Espresso","offer_id":43887022374978,"sku":"RFC200G003","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g cylinder \/ Home Espresso","offer_id":43887022407746,"sku":"RFC200G003","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g cylinder \/ Stovetop","offer_id":43887022440514,"sku":"RFC200G003","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g cylinder \/ Aeropress","offer_id":43887022473282,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g cylinder \/ Pour Over","offer_id":43887022506050,"sku":"RFC200G003","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g cylinder \/ Plunger","offer_id":43887022538818,"sku":"RFC200G003","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g cylinder \/ Batch Brewer","offer_id":43887022571586,"sku":"RFC200G003","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg bag \/ Whole Beans","offer_id":43887022604354,"sku":"RFC1KG003","price":92.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg bag \/ Commercial Espresso","offer_id":43887022637122,"sku":"RFC1KG003","price":92.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg bag \/ Home Espresso","offer_id":43887022669890,"sku":"RFC1KG003","price":92.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg bag \/ Stovetop","offer_id":43887022702658,"sku":"RFC1KG003","price":92.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg bag \/ Aeropress","offer_id":43887022735426,"sku":null,"price":92.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg bag \/ Pour Over","offer_id":43887022768194,"sku":"RFC1KG003","price":92.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg bag \/ Plunger","offer_id":43887022800962,"sku":"RFC1KG003","price":92.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg bag \/ Batch Brewer","offer_id":43887022833730,"sku":"RFC1KG003","price":92.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0081\/6978\/3362\/files\/KikaiPBFront.png?v=1782884916","url":"https:\/\/patriciacoffee.com.au\/products\/kikai-pb-kenya","provider":"Patricia Coffee Brewers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
