After harvesting the cherries, they are pulped with the Ecopulper – an important tool for the family, as it allows them to define the amount of mucilage that is being removed from the coffee beans before the fermentation and drying.
In order for the coffee to dry evenly, they ensure that it is moved frequently during drying. On the first day, they spread out the coffee in a thin layer and constantly keep an eye on it.
