Processing

Coffee Bean Harvest
Skilled farmers know exactly when to pick the coffee bean. Once harvesting time comes, the berries must be processed to remove the coffee bean from the fruit.
Drying Coffee Bean
The wet coffee bean is naturally sun dried on the patio, then, the pulp which surrounds the bean is removed before collection, sorting and finally roasting.
Roasting
The roasting process is what produces the characteristic flavor of coffee by causing the green coffee beans to expand and to change in color, taste, smell, and density.
