Vescaya Manor Marago Gippe (Elephant Bean) Honey treatment in San Marco Volcano area? What is honey treatment?
Vescaya Coffee Manor is located in the earliest production area of Guatemala and has been famous for its high quality coffee for two hundred years. Coffee at Vescaya Manor grows along ridges ranging from 1300 meters to 1800 meters above sea level, with temperatures ranging from 21 to 27 degrees Celsius, affected by Pacific sea breezes and moisture, with relative humidity of 70 percent and rainfall of 4000 to 5000 millimeters. It has the highest rainfall of the eight producing areas in Guatemala. The ash provided by Santiaguito, a nearby active volcano, makes its soil more fertile. Due to climatic conditions and unexpected rainfall, most estates have their own washing plants, and then the coffee is half-dried in the yard and then dried at a low temperature.

There are three main ways to treat coffee: sun exposure, water washing and honey treatment. The sun drying method is to directly expose the coffee cherries before removing the shell and pectin layer; the water washing method is to screen the coffee pulp before exposure and ferment to remove the pectin layer; the honey treatment law is between the sun method and the water washing method: the pectin layer is directly retained and exposed after the coffee pulp is screened.
The word honey treatment makes many people think that coffee is treated with honey, or that coffee tastes as sweet as honey, but in fact it is not either of these two explanations. The meaning of honey treatment comes from the sticky pectin layer of coffee beans before exposure, which feels as sticky as honey; when the coffee pulp is separated from the coffee beans, the outer coated pectin layer is exposed to absorb moisture in the air and make the pectin layer sticky.
Honey treatment is not simple, it takes a long time and must be handled carefully. What are the steps involved in honey processing? First of all, coffee farmers should select ripe coffee cherries from the coffee tree, and then screen out the outer pulp, as mentioned earlier to retain the pectin layer outside the coffee beans. The pectin layer retains a high proportion of sugar and acid, which are the key to honey treatment. The following steps are the most complex and exquisite part of honey treatment: exposure. The time must be mastered well, and the length of time is the key. If the exposure time is too short, it is impossible to convert the substance of the pectin layer into the coffee beans, and the time cannot be too long, and the action must be fast to avoid mildew beans caused by internal fermentation. So how do you strike a balance? Put the beans on the sun scaffolding or cement floor and turn the beans several times per hour for the first few days until they reach the desired moisture content, a step that usually takes 6-10 hours. You need to turn it at least once a day for the next 6-8 days. It takes a lot of time, huh? The reason why honey treatment is so time-consuming is that beans absorb moisture from the air every night, so that it takes more time to expose themselves the next day.
