The basic process of coffee is coffee planting-> raw bean treatment-> cooked bean roasting-> coffee brewing. However, in this process of raw bean treatment, all kinds of treatment methods are inextricably related to fermentation.

Most of the methods we see are dry fermentation (dry fermentation) and wet fermentation (wet fermentation), and how are the more popular 'anaerobic treatment' and 'yeast treatment' carried out recently?

Yeast treatment

No matter from which point of view, adding yeast to the fermentation process is a bold approach.

Camille Delebeque, a French doctor of biology, gave a speech at Re;co in Gothenburg, Sweden. the company he founded changed the flavor of coffee by controlling the microbes in the process of coffee fermentation, making the coffee less bitter, astringent, and sometimes even sour. He called the product Cultured coffee, or microbial coffee.

Their approach is to select specific yeasts or microbes for so-called secondary fermentation, to improve the good flavor, or to reduce the bad flavor. Even if he did not disclose what microbes he used, nor did he explain how his secondary fermentation was carried out, let alone the origin of coffee, beans, etc., his product was not cheap at all, asking $29 for 5 ounces (148g).

Aida Batlle, El Salvador's best-known coffee farmer, partnered with Equator, an American bean baker, to add yeast to the fermentation tank of Buenos Aires on the Salvadoran farm to test the effect on the flavor and compare it with the traditional washing treatment without yeast. In 2017, they experimented with two different yeasts and found that different yeasts produced different results. One of them increases the sweetness, balance and consistency of coffee, while the other improves brightness and fruit tonality. Yeast treatment adds flavors that are not easily available in traditional washing: sugarcane, lemon, nutmeg and sage.

According to official information, the Panamanian Jade Manor Rose Summer auction yeast processing Series (ES-Y): a total of four LOT batches, nine boxes of beans, using a new treatment method "yeast fermentation" and unique flavor of Rosa.

One of the biggest highlights of this year's auction is the addition of "yeast treatment batches": adding special yeast to the fermentation tank for 48 hours before washing, and then drying on the drying bed for four days. Unique yeast treatment batches. The addition of yeast in the post-processing process makes the fermentation process more rapid and thorough, and produces a special flavor.

According to the different flavor of red wine of yeast, the red wine taste of yeast An is more obvious than that of yeast B, while the red wine of yeast An is more meticulous, which can show the characteristics of Rosa more beautiful, so the price of Ymur1 is higher.

Lot ES-Y-1: add A yeast to ferment for 48 hours, then wash it, then dry it on the scaffolding for 4 days, the bidding price is US $340 / lb!

Lot ES-Y-2: add B yeast to ferment for 48 hours, then wash it, then dry it on the scaffolding for 4 days, the bidding price is US $111l / lb!

According to the manor operator Rachel Peterson, the "yeast fermentation method" is an attempt at the treatment of the Jade Manor to observe the performance of Rosa coffee fermented by yeast inoculation.

Treatment process: manually pick the fully ripe bright red fruit, sift out the small size and rinse, soak in clean water, ferment for about 48 hours, add yeast, and then dry in the sun. Lay flat on the tanning bed about 1 murmur2 layers thick, after 4 days of sun exposure, the average temperature: daily: 16 degrees-23 degrees, every night: 10 degrees-15 degrees, complete a completely different unique flavor!

After testing the red mark with yeast in our cup, we are pleased to find that this method enhances the performance of Rose Summer Coffee in all aspects (including aroma, mellow thickness, acidity and finish) and is very different from Sun Rose Summer. In general, it is closer to anaerobic fermentation, this treatment of rose summer is very good in terms of aroma and flavor, it grinds away the unsoftness and high acidity of washed coffee, brings a balanced and rich layer, and adds a flavor similar to red wine.
