In recent years, Rwanda has made great progress in coffee production and processing. First of all, coffee fruits are picked manually; coffee production cooperatives are set up all over the country to provide technical guidance to coffee farmers; coffee farmers send them to coffee processing stations for cleaning and screening as soon as possible after picking, and select mature and high-quality coffee fruits for processing.

The coffee fruit needs to be transported to the processing plant as soon as possible after picking, but due to the lack of domestic facilities, it is unable to deal with the fruit at the first time. The fruits are piled up after being picked, which will continue to develop and accelerate mildew and decay due to lack of ventilation. Rotten fruits will affect the quality of coffee and show defective flavor.

After the fresh coffee cherries have been picked from the trees by the farmers, they should be bagged and sent to the treatment plant in time, weighed, and then poured into the working pool. for the first time a large amount of water is washed and filtered (one of the treatment plants is manually selected) stones, branches and immature cherries. Next, it is transported to the peeling machine to remove the peel and pulp.

Coffee is treated by washing, and water is scarce throughout eastern Africa. Some of them pump water from the ground, and some collect Rain Water. Clean water is a luxury here. The next step is to sort out the defective beans again, and then use 12-36 hours to peel off the raw beans which are still wrapped in mucus. Now there are many ways to deal with them, such as honey treatment, which will be divided into red, yellow and black. Kenya and Rwanda ferment raw beans with pectin in natural contact with microorganisms in the air, and the whole producing area can smell it, which is as charming as the red currant in red wine.
