Gayo Coffee Processing: From Red Fruit to a Delicious Cup

Gayo coffee, with its unique taste and distinctive aroma, has captivated coffee lovers all over the world. The right processing process is the key behind the special quality of Gayo coffee. Let’s explore step by step how Gayo coffee beans are processed, from the time the coffee fruit is picked to the coffee powder that is ready to be brewed.
Coffee Fruit Picking

 

• • Perfect Ripe: Gayo coffee berries are picked when they reach perfect ripeness. Ripe berries are characterized by an even red color and are easy to remove from the stem. This selective picking is essential to producing the best quality coffee beans.

• • Picking Method: Picking is generally done by hand to ensure that only truly ripe berries are picked.
    Wet Processing (Washed Process)
    The wet processing method is the most common method used to process Gayo coffee. Here are the steps:

• • Separating the Skin and Flesh of the Fruit: After being picked, the coffee berries are then taken to the processing facility. Here, the coffee beans will go through a machine to separate the skin and flesh of the fruit.

• • Fermentation: Coffee beans that have been separated from the skin and flesh of the fruit are then fermented. This fermentation aims to soften the layer of mucus that is still attached to the coffee beans.

• • Washing: After the fermentation process is complete, the coffee beans are washed thoroughly with running water to remove any remaining mucus and dirt.

• • Drying: The clean coffee beans are then dried. Drying can be done in the traditional way using direct sunlight or using a drying machine. This drying process is very important to reduce the water content in the coffee beans to a safe level.
    Dry Processing (Natural Process)
    In addition to wet processing, there is also a dry processing method. In this method, the coffee beans are dried entirely with the skin and flesh of the fruit. The drying process is carried out slowly in the sun or using a special drying machine. The dry processing method produces coffee beans with a more complex taste and is slightly sweeter than the wet processing method.
    Sorting and Grading
    After the drying process is complete, the coffee beans are then separated based on their size, shape, and quality. This process is called sorting and grading. High-quality coffee beans will be selected and packaged for marketing.
    Post-Harvest Process

• • Roasting: Dried coffee beans are then roasted. This roasting process will give a distinctive taste to the coffee. The level of roasting maturity will affect the taste and aroma of the coffee.

• • Grinding: After roasting, the coffee beans are then ground into coffee powder with a size that suits the brewing method to be used.
    Storage
    Grinded coffee powder should be stored in an airtight container and protected from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
    Factors Affecting the Quality of Gayo Coffee

• • Coffee Varieties: The coffee varieties planted, the altitude of the place of growth, climate, and soil type will greatly affect the taste of the coffee.

• • Processing Process: Every stage in the processing process, from picking to roasting, will greatly affect the quality of the coffee.

• • Storage: The correct way to store coffee will maintain the freshness and aroma of the coffee.
