Coffee Production

The coffee plants produce the first full crop yield when they have around five years of age. They maintain a constant production for 15 to 20 years. We use two methods of harvesting. One is based on the selective collection and the other is to shake the ground and collect all the benefits. The seeds obtained through the first technique typically benefit, if there is water, the so-called wet method: softening in water, mechanical removal of flesh, in large fermentation tanks, a new washing and drying air or hot rotating cylinders. The dry method, which usually reserved for seeds collected from the second form, boils down to the grain drying and eliminate external wrappers. The final product is always the so-called green coffee, which is selected by hand or machine to remove the seeds defective and foreign matter, and is classified depending on the size.
