A song that pairs well
Roaster thoughts : Coffee cherries and water activated Intenso yeast was fermented in a tank for 48 hours resulting in a LOT that is extremely fruity and unique. Roasting a lot like this also requires careful disbursement of heat with low drum temperatures. We roasted this coffee at a fairly lower drum speed with lower initial heat that gradually rises and reduces before the first crack to end the roast at a light-medium level with a drop temperature of 205 Degree. Produces a med-heavy bodied, fruity and enjoyable final cup.
About the Process:
Ripe cherries were selected, floaters were removed and inoculated in barrels with Intenso yeast. The fermentation was done in a cool shaded area for 48 hrs during which we constantly monitored the temperature as well as PH never allowing it to drop below 4. Post that coffee was removed and put on trays and kept under shade nets for drying.
