The clearest tweets: it stops at the beginning of the first crack. Very acid, with notes of cereal and grass; it is usually little developed.

The cinnamon is removed as soon as the first crack begins, with the grain at about 196 ° C. It has a light and dry brown color, similar to that of the cinnamon in branch, and no trace of oil on the surface.

As it has just begun to develop, it conserves a lot of acidity and tastes like cereal, grass and lemon. It is often little developed: the inside of the grain is not finished and the cup is rough or with a raw point.

It is used mainly in professional catas, to study the character of the grain and to detect defects. To drink at home, it's almost always better to have a little longer nut.
