What is washing?

The so-called washing method is one of the treatment methods of raw coffee beans.

The coffee beans after harvest must enter the treatment program immediately, otherwise they will begin to ferment, making the coffee beans have a bad smell. There are two methods of treatment: "solarization" and "washing", which will cause different flavors.

Complete washing method

The peel, pulp and mucous membrane are removed by washing and fermentation. farms that use the washing method must build washing ponds and be able to introduce an endless supply of live water. During the treatment, the finished beans are put into the pool and passed back and forth, using the friction of beans and the power of running water to wash the coffee beans until smooth and clean.

After washing, at this time, the coffee beans are still wrapped in the pericarp with a moisture content of 50%. They must be dried to reduce the moisture content to 12%, otherwise they will continue to be mellow, moldy and rotten. The better treatment method is to use sunlight drying, although it will take 1 ~ 3 weeks, but the flavor is very good and very popular.

Knowledge: Arabica coffee is generally thought to be originated from the Ethiopian plateau, widely distributed in the tropics, after repeated mutation and breeding, derived many varieties.
