Description

The process of washed coffee starts from the moment of picking the coffee cherries. It is promoted within COMSA's members at this stage to only hand-pick 100% ripe cherries with, a red wine-like color. The farmers deliver the cherries to COMSA’s central wet mill after the day of collection is finished. Usually, from 4 to 9 or 10 p.m., the central mill gets the busiest. The cherries are left in the hopper overnight where the beans rest for 12 to 16 hours to ferment inside the cherries. The next morning the coffee cherries are de-pulped (removal of cherry skin from coffee beans).
