How We
Process

Every step is controlled, documented, and shared. This is how Yirgacheffe Lot 04-A became the coffee you're reading about.

Hand sorting
01
Step 01
Hand Sorting

Only fully-ripe red cherries are selected. Unripe and overripe fruit is rejected before any processing begins — no machine shortcuts.

Avg. 6 hrs per 100kg lot
Fermentation

Washed Fermentation

48-hour fermentation in clean raised tanks. pH and temperature monitored every 12 hours for total consistency across the lot.
