Coffee Harvesting Process
During the coffee harvesting process, workers meticulously pick the ripe, red coffee cherries by hand. They carefully inspect each plant, selecting only the cherries that have reached perfect maturity.
The harvested cherries are then transported to the processing facility, where they undergo a series of steps to extract the precious coffee beans. This includes de-pulping, fermentation, washing, and drying.
Throughout the process, the beans are closely monitored to ensure optimal quality and flavor. The attention to detail at every stage is crucial in producing the exceptional coffee that’s enjoyed around the world.
Coffee Roasting Techniques
The coffee roasting process is a crucial step in unlocking the rich, complex flavors of the coffee bean. During the tour, visitors learn how the beans are carefully roasted to perfection.
The roasting temperature and duration are meticulously controlled to achieve the desired flavor profile. As the beans darken, their sugars caramelize, and the beans’ oils are released, resulting in a deeper, richer aroma and taste.
Guests may even get the chance to sample the roasted beans and compare the differences in flavor between light, medium, and dark roasts. Understanding this process enhances the appreciation for the art of crafting a delicious cup of coffee.
