Introduction to Solar Sidamo

Korate, who won the first place in the Ethiopian limited cup tanning group with a score of 91.9, has a lot of similarities between the overall flavor and the first prize in last year's limited cup tanning group, Amaro Gayo. The dry aroma after grinding is dominated by very sweet blueberry aromas, with rising floral aromas and a hint of cinnamon, wet aromas and perhaps a touch of peach, which tastes like blueberry chocolate. it's a pity that there's a hint of over-fermentation in the final finish.

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. Sun-dried beans have a complete natural mellow flavor, gentle aroma and more gum; washing rules have a good mellow taste, high aroma and lively sour taste.

Sidamo is usually marked with G4 exit, while water-washed Sidamo is mostly exported at G2 level because of the better sun treatment process.

[washed Sidamo]: coffee raw bean green is slightly gray, some places are thick and some places are small, the acidity is soft and strong, mellow, sweet and spicy, it is one of the courtyard coffee in the highlands of southern Ethiopia.

two。 Next, use tall wooden frames or whole scaffolding for the sun to avoid the risk of beans smelling on the ground. In the process of exposure, take good care of the beans so that the coffee beans can be evenly exposed to water; every three to five days, coffee workers will manually screen out defective and moldy beans. Therefore, by the time the exposure is completed, before the beans enter the market to remove the peel and flesh, a bright crimson coffee cherry is already a grade with few defects.
