What is honey treatment?

Coffee beans are not really beans, but the seeds of coffee fruit, while coffee is a red fruit when ripe, and may have a yellow and orange appearance depending on the variety.

But before the coffee beans are roasted, there are several layers of matter to be removed from the outer layer of the fruit, and then the coffee beans are dried to a moisture content of about 11%. There are two common treatments: washing with water to remove the pectin layer. and direct exposure to the fruit and then remove the outer layer of the sun treatment.

Honey treatment is somewhere in between, the outer layer of the fruit will be partially removed, and part of the pectin layer will be retained and dried.

You may be familiar with "honey treatment", "sun treatment" and "washing", or you may have heard of "yellow honey", "red honey" and "black honey". But these treatments may be rare in ordinary cafes. So today I will briefly explain to you the differences between these secret processing methods.

White honey and sweet honey

White Honey Coffee Coffee tends to be washed by machine and retains the least amount of fruit. Honey coffee tends to be semi-washed, and the proportion of preserved fruit is also slightly higher.

Of course, the definition of processed coffee produced by each farm may be slightly different, but this information is practical, and understanding the differences in processing methods when buying these coffees will help to understand the gap.
