Soaking beans.
After the skin of the coffee bean is pulped off
(removed), the beans are socked in water
14
Fermentation
After pulping the beans are soaked in water to
remove the sugary pulp or mucilage still
adhering to the coffee bean. The processing,
known as wet fermentation takes from 36-72 hours
to accomplish
15
Sun drying coffee beans
The wet parchment is sun dried cautiously to
lower the moisture content from 55 to (10.5
-12.5) The process is completed at conditioning
bins which takes about 2 weeks to several weeks.
16
Storage of sun dried coffee
The Sun dried coffee is stored in bags ready for
hulling
17
Hulling of coffee beans
Commonly referred to as milling ,the dry
parchment is hulled, polished and graded into the
seven standard grades namely-

AA,AB,C,T,TT,PB and E.
