Working Out After Acl Surgery

... aromas and history


... The consumption of tea increased in Europe during the seventeenth century. In 1714, the French succeeded in bringing a live cutting of coffee to the island of Martinique, this single plant was the source of the vast coffee plantations of Latin America ... The coffee, coffee called, has many varieties in different regions of the world. This shrub is part of the family Rubiaceae. Of the thirty species comprising the genus Coffea is important only three: arabica, robusta and liberica.

shrub or small tree, 4, 6 to 6 m in height at maturity, has leaves ovate, glossy, green, which are maintained for three to five years and white, fragrant flowers that stay open only for a few days. The fruit develops during the six or seven months after the appearance of the flowers, change from light green to red when fully ripe and ready for harvesting, crimson. The ripe fruit, which resembles a cherry, is formed in clusters attached to the branches very short stems, usually enclosing two seeds surrounded by a sweet pulp.



need coffee to grow rich and moist soil that absorbs water well and quickly drain excess rainfall. The best soils are formed by a small blanket of leaves, other organic matter and disintegrated volcanic rock class. Although frost damage coffee plants right away, it is grown in cold regions, the growth temperature range between 13 and 26 ° C.

The origin of the word is disputed Ethiopian-side with the powerful Kaffas that are grouped by realms, and another Saudi, where they drew Kahve wine, and which they named that way to the "reviver" , until S XVI consumption was banned in the Islamic world and the term was first used for coffee, other stimulants but in this case allowed by Islam. Kahve or qhava: what gives flight to wonder and thought ", as the seed of coffee contains a complex mixture of chemicals, some of them are not affected by roasting, but others, particularly those elements which the aroma, are produced by partial destruction of the green bean roasting.



Compounds boiling water extracts are classified as non-volatile flavor components and volatile aroma components. The most important volatile compounds are caffeine, trigonelline, chlorogenic acid, fatty phenolic, amino acids, carbohydrates and minerals. Among the volatiles are organic acids, aldehydes, ketones, esters, amines and some sulfur compounds called mercaptans. The main physiological effects of coffee are due to caffeine, an alkaloid with stimulant properties gently.

Like the best wines oxygen plays a trick on him: the ground coffee loses flavor in about a week. Combinations of plastic and paper packaging are common means of protecting either the freshly roasted and ground coffee. Vacuum-sealed cans or pressurized retain the freshness of coffee up to three years.

Who has not thought about before a steaming cup of coffee?

Who has not dipuesto to feel and remember a beautiful story with its aroma?



(... The consumption of tea increased in Europe during the seventeenth century, prompting the Dutch to cultivate it in their colonies. In 1714, the French succeeded take a cutting coffee live on the Caribbean island of Martinique, this single plant was the source of the vast coffee plantations of Latin America ...)

tell then, that the first grains from that which would be one of the largest South American riches came to Brazil in 1727 in the luggage of Francisco de Mello Palheta Sgt. He had received almost clandestinely Madame d'Órvilheir, wife of the governor of French Guyana that must have had good reasons to counter a ban on their country of origin that prevented the dissemination of the precious grains beyond its sovereign borders.

The first plantings were part of the landscape of Ethiopia before the SV where grains kneaded to form a paste then mixed with a kind of butter.

From there began a journey to South Arabia where he began the practice of roasting and grinding, performed manually on mortars and Mecca, and at the end of S XV, came the first public local coffee shops.

From east to west travel coffee on board the Venetian merchants who introduced it in France. There were created and consists of literary saraus that King Louis XV worship prepared personally.



Then, as we said, was enough to cross the border only in the boots of Sergeant Palheta to position in northern Brazil, between 1840 and 1880, as the largest producer world.

Years later extended in the then province of São Paulo, in the tropics, which raised slowly under the protective shadow of the richness of the coffee. The first railway in São Paulo Southern Railway, joined the cities of Jundiaí and Santos, born no doubt in terms of coffee and from there launched its international route.
That sergeant never imagined the fate that her lover would return to Paris, compelled to testify about the fate of a box of coffee beans
present rather than exclusive
then Arab diplomats French driving, mysteriously lost beyond the Atlantic and invariably identified in the successful production of the moment.

However, this story is more interesting than that which refers to the goats excited and sleepless after taking several samples during grazing.

why we chose it from the others. Say

passion. If we accept a coffee, you still counting.



The case of cultural landscape coffee in São Paulo is typical for the understanding and characterization of the built environment of the territory River paulista.4 The Brazilian coffee industry was for nearly a century, much more than producing an input into the international market. Coffee was the main Brazilian agricultural commodity, generating the foreign exchange needed to finance industrialization.

cultural and technological changes have taken place during those 100 years had an impact on the architecture of the farms (defined as the main area of \u200b\u200bproduction), so that each cultural change prompted new architectural forms that emerged in the estates as response to new demands.

It is possible to distinguish four architectural types of coffee plantations (each describing their own region in the period that reaches its peak:

• The estates "almost autarkic" of Vale do Paraíba, from mid-nineteenth century until the late twentieth century.

• Large "rural" in the region of Ribeirao Preto in Sao Paulo called West since the late twentieth century

until the late 20's of XX century.

• The estates that characterize the transition between the "almost autarkic" and large "rural" found in the region of Campinas, considered ideal for the study of the architecture of coffee.

• Small farms (or farms of coffee) in the region called West Novo Paulista, from late 20 to 60's of XX century.

Obviously each of these architectural styles influence the conformation of the territory of São Paulo, today the largest and most developed state in Brazil. Many cities will emerge from the extension of coffee in the region. Much of the contemporary landscape paulista is a tributary of the cultural landscapes of coffee.

The coffee culture was the main economic activity in Brazil in the nineteenth century. Globally important resource, enabling the country to the accumulation of capital necessary to build its infrastructure of agro-industrial production, finance its industrialization process from the beginning of the twentieth century and promote the organization of the territory.




The coffee culture is spread throughout the southeastern region of the country, finding a favorable environment in specific subregions of the states of Rio de Janeiro and Espirito Santo, Minas Gerais South, North of Paraná, and almost all parts of the state of São Paulo (Brazilian farmer main stage) since the mid-nineteenth century until the mid-twentieth century.

several regions of São Paulo were occupied by the coffee with their own characteristics and processes of implementation and expansion. Socio-economic situations and physical availability, such as transport, tenures and land use, labor relations, development of agricultural and plantation production systems, and fundamentally the international market situation, conditioned the evolution occupation of the territory of the state of São Paulo, determining in each period, different types of development and the profile of architecture in such farms.

Progress of coffee in the territory of São Paulo was avoiding the Tropic of Capricorn under which, the climate does not favor coffee caficultura.5 occupation in the state of São Paulo has the following guidelines: regions of Vale do Paraíba and Campinas (the oldest in the state of São Paulo); region of Oeste Paulista (from Campinas to Ribeirão Preto, whose peak production occurred in the late nineteenth century); Novo Paulista West region (extending the region of West

Paulista, this course extends from 1920 to mid-twentieth century). The Ribeira Valley, south of the state is not listed, because the coffee never had economic importance in this area. After the cultivation of coffee in the oldest regions, abandoned farms are subdivided into small farms. Monoculture leads to polyculture, and the immigrant who gets to save money as an entrepreneur seinscribe rural. The fragmentation of estates involves some stability to set a large contingent of peasants and small landowners.

The small farm in SãoPaulo arises from the fragmentation of large estates or abandonment of the farms of medium size, and even in some regions as a result of the conquest of the hinterland. Until the 1870's traditional coffee farming practiced in the Vale do Paraíba and the region of Campinas generates a unique architecture in the industrial core of large rural properties. The characterization of the cultural landscape of these regions should be made based on the knowledge base of agricultural production processes and industrial coffee maker in the area of \u200b\u200blarge estate at the time.

oldest coffee-growing regions in the state of São Paulo (Vale do Paraíba and Campinas) are similar in several respects. In both coffee production is developed around the 1830's until the late nineteenth century. Initially, the plantations are located around the existing nuclei margins with few roads. Two major rivers, the Tietê and Paraíba form their "backbone." Both regions were already populated and characterized by a landscape of "Pousos and bandeiras", as well as refineries (due to previous cycles, "flags" and "sugar"). However

the region of Campinas (which reached its peak between 1886 and 1890), benefited from European immigration, and the quality of their land, increased by more than those. The installation of complex sugar and cotton production (after the decline of coffee) permitting the continuation of their process of agribusiness development.

The first coffee farms installed in the Paraíba Valley around 1830, its founders demanded hard work, courage, dedication and patience. The implementation process began with the logging and the construction of the main house preferably near rivers or streams, as well as the construction of temporary storage. The cultivation of the gardens for own consumption andthe coffee plantation were made then. As mentioned before, the estates were almost autarkic.

sugar planting in the region of Campinas and Vale do Paraíba before 1830, prepared the land for coffee cultivation. For several years the large estates retained the architecture of the sugar cane plantations. Simultaneously in the regions of Vale do Paraíba and the so-called "ring of sugar, particularly in Campinas, Itu, you could see the same phenomenon: enrichment of great and ancient families in the region, directly benefiting the spectacular growth of the coffee.
