Processing of Coffee
Dry Method
- The oldest, most natural and cheapest method.
- The fruits either dry on the tree or the tree is shaken or stripped.
- The ripe and unripe fruits are spread out, dried and shriveled under the sun.
- The beans are raked several times to make sure they dry evenly.
- The beans passes through a hulling machine to separate the skin from the beans.
Wet Method
- The beans are handpicked; fully ripened, quality beans.
- The beans are washed and water is gently sprayed over them to remove the pulp and any debris.
- Then they are dried in the sun and finally a hulling machine removes the protective silver skin that adheres to the beans surface.
