Process Stages :
- Selective Picking : Only fully ripe red cherries are handpicked to ensure optimal quality.
- Initial Sorting (Cherry Sorting) : Cherries are sorted using flotation to remove defective or low-density beans.
- Pulping : The outer skin is removed using a pulping machine, leaving beans covered with mucilage.
- Fermentation : Beans are fermented for approximately 12–36 hours to break down and remove the mucilage layer, depending on environmental conditions.
- Washing : Beans are thoroughly washed with clean water to remove any remaining mucilage, resulting in a clean cup profile.
- Drying : Beans are dried (sun-dried or mechanically dried) until reaching a moisture content of around ±12%.
- Hulling : The parchment layer is removed to produce green beans.
- Grading & Sorting : Beans are sorted by size (screen size 8), color, and defect level (3–4%) to ensure consistency.
