Natural Coffee Processing

  • Natural processed coffees have a long history-possibly the longest history in the coffee-drinking world. Picking the ripe coffee cherry and allowing it to dry completely before removing it from the seed was probably the original way coffees were processed in East Africa, though now the process has been updated, modernized, and adapted to many different growing regions. In this video we see how staff at the Worka washing station in Yirgacheffe, Ethiopia tend to the steps of a Natural process, as one example of its present-day execution.

    Man it really bums me out because there is so much money in coffee there and these guys are probably barely getting paid. We owe these men and women so much

    Watching this I already spilled over with amazement how much attention to detail, hard work and hand-based labour goes into making these coffees! What killed me completely though was the end as in my cupboard sits a Worka Yirgacheffe mixed heirloom natural with the most wonderful aroma of nectarine, blueberry and chocolate. A coffee I have always come back to buying. And now I know how it is produces and why it tastes so good! Thank you so much for making this video! Makes me appreciate the coffee even more!

    I like the natural processing for two reasons. First, i like the berry forward aromas. Next, excessive water is not needed to remove the desiccated fruit layer.

    I was bummed to have accidentally bought a 150g coffee on a 250g container on a travel trip. It wasn't until days later that i realized this and I checked the same product online to see if I was scammed out of a 100g, only to discover this:
    That I bought a Gesha variety naturally processed.
    It was my first time actually grabbing a bag of Gesha, and naturally processed at that, so thats why i can taste the cherry flavor more.
    I definitely appreciate my coffee more after watching this.

      True thing. I think the issue here lies within the consumer market being too far away from the production. We in europe are able to buy coffee as a luxury product and pay a lot for good quality, or at least consume much more coffee. I guess ethiopia and its surroundings lacks the economic situation to create high enough demand at the moment. To export roasted beans would be too difficult, as nobody would import roasted coffee that they could freshly roast themselves.
      Wish all of you good luck in the future and that your region will grow in strength!

      Honey process best of both worlds (I could be wrong I have not tasted enough honey process origins);

      @@12tribeff Thats the problem. Theres no money in coffee, its a commodity. Only the massive farms can make any profit, just like in the US if you have a small farm you will never make money selling a commodity like corn. Coffee farmers will never be paid well because big farms already spend all of their profit on paying the farmers. Look how many people were in this video alone, it takes sooo many people to make coffee, and they all have to split the profit between themselves. The only way for coffee farming to pay well is to differentiate your product enough that you can charge a higher price for it, For example, planting Geisha or other varietals, or even other species, or using better processing methods to improve quality etc. Some farmers are also getting on social media to differentiate themselves and stand out from other farmers. Sadly, if the farms don't differentiate themselves it's basically like trying to get rich by growing rice in your back yard.
