How is it processed?
1. Cherries are collected manually and hand sorted later.
2. The cherries are pulped by a traditional Agaarde Discpulper. Skin and fruit pulp are removed before the machine grades the parchment in water as 1st or 2nd quality, determined by density.
3. Wet fermentation for 72 hours.
4. Coffees are washed in channels, and graded in water by density.
5. After fermentation, soaking takes place for 2 hours.
6. Coffee is then piled up in layers which are 2 cm in height and dried over a 10-day period, then followed by hand sorting for 2-4 hours.
7. After drying, the coffees will be packed in jute bags and stored in the local warehouse onsite, separated by process and grade. This process helps condition the coffee and achieve a more uniform humidity.
