Pink Bourbon Washed Process
Step 1:
- Floating, selection of ripe cherries only.
- 32-hour-oxidation stage at an average room temperature of 25°C
- Anaerobic fermentation in bags or containers for 60 hours at an average temperature ranging between 16 – 18°C.
- Transfer the coffee to the pulping tanks, carrying out 18-hour oxidation and allowing for the mossto collection.
Step 2: Pulping
Step 3:
- Mucilage oxidation for 32 hours while adding cherry leachates/mossto.
- Thermal shock: water at 60°C is added and then water at 12°C.
- Coffee washing is done, while still leaving mucilage on the beans.
Step 4: Drying in canopies or in machines at a maximum temperature ranging between 30°C to 36°C for about 8 to 12 days to reach 11% humidity levels.
