Details of process:

Our processing method involves collecting coffees from farmers between the hours of 3pm and 8pm, whereupon the cherries undergo a rigorous inspection. The pulping process commences at 9-10pm, with machines that are able to differentiate between Gr 1, Gr 2, and gr 3/UG. Following this, the cherries are transferred to soaking/fermentation tanks for a period of 24-36 hours, depending on weather conditions. Once this step is completed, the cherries are washed again to remove any residual mucilage before being transferred to raised beds in the morning. To protect the beans from direct sunlight, the beds are covered between 12pm and 3pm, and stirred four times a day to ensure balanced drying. Once the beans reach a moisture level of around 11.5, they are moved to the warehouse for further processing. Our processing station is equipped with a locally made machine called the Hagard, which is used to separate coffee based on density after pulping. Floaters are referred to as Undergrade (UG).
