process iconProcessing

The cherries begins in anaerobic bioreactors where the microorganism is added.Once the first fermentation phase is finished, the shell of the fruits is removed to take them to other bioreactors and start the second fermentation phase. Wilton recovers the juices produced during the fermentation of cherries to add them in the fermentation of pulped coffee. After the second phase of fermentation is finished, the grains are again subjected to hot water impacts to later be washed with cold water. The washed coffee is taken to the ecological drying equipment where the drying curve is configured, which for this coffee is 40 degrees Celsius for the initial 12 hours and 35 degrees Celsius for the last 24 hours.
