Bourbon Sidra Natural Process
Step 1:
- Floating, Manual selection of only ripe cherries.
- 18-hour oxidation at an average room temperature of 25°c
- Anaerobic fermentation in bags or containers, for 70 hours at an average temperature of 16 to 18°C.
- Transfer to tanks, carrying out a 28-hour oxidation, reaching a maximum temperature of 42°C.
- Transfer of the coffee cherries to 50-kilo bags to start another anaerobic fermentation for 30 hours at a temperature of 16 to 20°C.
- Transfer the coffee to tanks, submerging it in water at 45 degrees C, adding leachate/mossto from a previous harvest, and recirculating the leachate for 18 hours.
Step 2:
The drying phase starts in canopies at a maximum temperature of 32°C. The drying process is interrupted when an 18% humidity level is reached, then the coffee is transferred to black bags in a dark warehouse space, letting it rest for 60 hours to then continue with drying, until obtaining 11% moisture levels.
