Qianjie-A brief introduction to Ethiopian washing Hero
The washing method can remove impurities (stone or garbage, etc.) and defective beans through each step, so the appearance of raw beans is more consistent, it is generally regarded as high-quality coffee, and the trading price is higher than that of coffee beans refined by natural drying. Washing not only retains the original flavor of coffee, it also enhances the brightness of coffee, that is, acidity, as well as the special fruit aroma. However, the biggest disadvantage of washed coffee is that coffee beans are easy to get the stench of fermentation during fermentation. If the beans are stained with the flavor of fermentation, most of them are due to the lack of management and maintenance of the fermentation tank.
Although soaking the coffee beans with mucous membrane on the endocarp in the fermentation tank for one night can remove the mucous membrane. However, if the microbes in the fermentation tank change, it will cause the coffee beans to be stained with fermented flavor. Moreover, the equipment cost of coffee washing method is high, and the washing steps are quite time-consuming, so the production cost is relatively higher.
