What kind of bean is used?

Not sure I really understand the question -- the back of the bag says "hand-pollinated blooms of the vanilla orchid...after the beans are handpicked and fully sun cured, they're ground into a potent, fragrant powder." I don't know where they're from. Suggest you call Sun Food in El Cajon, California.

Ground Vanilla Beans. Vanilla is not actually a bean, but comes from an orchid plant.

If you want to use in cooking, it is ok, but this kind of soy bean ( smaller type) is for soy milk. some other kind of soy bean is bigger, would be better for cooking...

Haven't noticed. Is the coffee bean/roast one you typically drink? You shouldn't use boiling water too as it may burn the ground.

No...don't use whole beans. Use regular ground coffee. I use Dukin Donuts original blend. Follow directions that come with pot. Makes the best coffee I have ever had.

The bag I received was whole beans. It says in the product heading "ground" or "bean",.

All I know it is from a vegetable source, but unknown exactly what vegetables they use, but,beans, pumkin seeds and swiss chard, and soybeans high in this mineral. Considering soy is the cheapest, prob using this as main source. Just guessing.

Although I bought this bean pot last year I have not used it yet. Am hoping to do so shortly. Sorry I could not be of more help. If it helps, I bought it because the reviews were good.

It works a little if you leave the coffee in the bag it comes in. I only use ground coffee but assume it would be better with beans.

I only use regulsr beans, but think thst regular beans and ground decaf beans would be the only practical approach.

The beans are not black, they are only dark brown. I don't know if the beans are large. I grind fine to very fine and make esspresso. Delicious.

You can use any kind in terms of roast, the important thing is the grind. I use whole beans and grind them pretty coarsely (a fine grind like you would use for espresso doesn't work well with the French Press). http://www.zavida.com/blog/coffee/coffee-grind-types-explained/

Well I am not sure what your machine requires. Some machines do not recommend using oily beans. That is all I can think of. Besides that, it is all about your taste.

I use medium to fine. If you grind your own beans, you may want to experiment with different grinds to find what works best for you.

You mean "ground" coffee. Yes, the machine uses coffee beans that have been finely ground (preferably in your own coffee grinder. A good coffee grinder.)

As far as I found while doing research it is a codfee bean before it has been roasted.

Most of these beans can't sprout. Maybe one out of 100 beans can do. So these beans are just for cooking.

Whole bean. Make sure you own a grinder or know a place that will grind it for you.
