Dr Martha Taniwaki of Brazil's Institute of Food Technology presented her research at the International Mycological Conference in Cairns this week. Dr Taniwaki says while the characteristics of the bean partly determine taste and aroma, naturally occurring fungi also put the zing in your favourite brew. "We are doing a project to correlate the presence of certain species of fungi in coffee with coffee flavour," she said. ********* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
