Question 8
Question
The Semi-Washed method is:
Answer
Pulp removed, soaked for 1-2 hours, rubbed together to take off mucilage, rinsed, laid out to dry, taken to mill for beans to dry still in parchment 1-5 days. Parchment removed and hulled to dry the final time. No fermentation, resulting in a full body of earthy and herbal flavors.
The skin of the fresh cherry is physically removed using a pulper machine with addition of water (pulping). The sugar coating (mucilage) is allowed to ferment over one to two days and then the parchment is washed thoroughly to remove all traces of fermented mucilage. The parchment is dried until the bean inside reaches 12% moisture. This process can produce high quality coffee, but requires large quantities of water - between 0.25 to 1 gal/lb (2 to 10 L/kg) water of fresh cherry, and requires very good management of the fermentation and washing process to ensure the coffee flavor is not damaged in the process
This is a one-step operation where the coffee bean is dried inside the whole coffee fruit to 12% moisture. The dry cherry is then hulled to produce a dry green bean.
