Last Updated: 2024/11/08, During the harvest, farmers harvest fresh red fruit every day, and every two days the coffee fruit is sent as a unit or sold to a washing plant for treatment. coffee fruit that has not gone through a water treatment plant is usually naturally fermented for about 12 hours, and then passed through the sun for drying and shelling. in any case, farmers always try their best to send them to the water treatment plant for treatment so that they can be washed.

During the harvest, farmers harvest fresh red fruit every day, and every two days the coffee fruit is sent as a unit or sold to a water washing plant for treatment. coffee fruit without a water treatment plant is usually naturally fermented for about 12 hours, and then passed through the sun for drying and shelling. in any case, farmers always try their best to send them to the water treatment plant for treatment. In order to sell better under the name of "washing treatment", in the water wash, coffee cherries soften the pulp after soaking and fermenting for about 12 hours, then pass through the waterway and stir to separate the pulp from the coffee beans. the pulp is discharged with the floodgates, while coffee beans need six days of sunshine to dry, but the processing time is only from sunrise to 11:00 and from 03:00 to sunset. The water content of raw beans after treatment should be about 12% ~ 12.5%. After selecting residual or shoddy beans, they are packed in sacks and trucked to the coffee auction house in the capital, Addis Ababa.
