Brazil half-sun treatment method is introduced in detail, what is half-sun treatment? The origin of half-sun treatment.

When it comes to half-sun treatment, some friends may be blinded. What is half-sun? What's the difference between the sun and the sun? Today we will take you to understand the story of the origin of half-sun treatment. Half-sun treatment in Brazil appeared because the raw bean treatment in Brazil at that time was mainly traditional sun treatment, and its quality was much lower than that of elevated beds in Africa at the same time. The traditional sun treatment is to dry the coffee beans directly and coarsely in the drying field, resulting in coffee easily mixed with many other impurities, easy to be infected and deteriorated, resulting in a rotten taste. The use of sun treatment is due to low cost, lack of water resources in Brazil, dry weather and lack of water washing. In order to improve the market competitiveness and improve the quality of raw beans, Brazil has developed a half-sun method (also known as semi-washing). The treatment process is as follows: first, the coffee fruit is floated to remove impurities and impurities, then go into the machine to peel and peel off and remove part of the pectin. Then put into the tank to ferment, the time is about an hour, at this time, the sticky beans will be removed from the fermentation pool and directly laid on the African elevated net bed for drying. Because the fermentation time is much shorter than that of washing, the pectin layer is retained. Compared with the water washing treatment, this kind of half-sun treatment saves a lot of water resources, reduces the cost, greatly shortens the days of drying compared with the traditional sun drying, and avoids the bad taste of excessive fermentation and the infection of dust pests on the ground. The quality of coffee beans has been greatly improved.
