This is a good sign that your yeast fermentation is happy. Very high level of activity, and lots of trapped CO2 in the tank when you mix. Smells good, sounds good, looks good. 👍

20 days of processing work condensed into 2 minutes!
This is a quick peek into how we process washed coffees in Guatemala.

This is how most coffee is processed around the world. It is a very old and common practice in wet mills to ferment pulped coffee with its wild microbes, often in a dry tank. This brings with it risks to quality and consistency.

Debido a las tendencias y a la falta de atención, los nuevos métodos de procesamiento suelen acaparar gran parte del protagonismo; en el procesamiento, podemos hacer algo en el tanque y notar inmediatamente los resultados en la taza. Sin embargo, los cambios que se realizan en la finca pueden tardar varios meses y cosechas en mostrar resultados significativos.
En el EP 33 de cabal café discutimos sobre las cinco prácticas agronomícas que no deberías ignorar en el cultivo de café.

Inoculating coffee fermentations with specific microbes is a very new development in coffee. It might seem widespread in the industry if you follow the specialty coffee world, but in reality, very few producers are doing it. Link in bio for the full video on YouTube.

Let's talk about "Lactic Fermentations".
It's becoming increasingly common to see in specialty coffee, and usually the style that comes to mind is adding yogurt to the coffee. But I think there are better ways to achieve a more stable and reproducible lactic process.

Are there any commercial yeast strains designed specifically for Robusta Coffee?
Thank you @cjszwejkowski for the question.

Si invertimos tiempo y recursos en protocolos de fermentación pero descuidamos el secado y el almacenamiento, estamos dejando la calidad expuesta y posiblemente en riesgo.
En el EP# 32 de cabal café discutimos sobre pequeñas recomendaciones para garantizar la estabilidad, proteger el perfil sensorial y dar valor a nuestras cosechas.

Living next to the most active volcano in Guatemala creates some interesting challenges.

I for one, did not know this.
@lluciasolis contends that we have been incorrectly using the term ‘anaerobic’ to describe coffee fermentation processes.
This might create confusion for many of us, but is this an opportunity to change our language to describe coffee in a more objective way?
In our most recent podcast with @lluciasolis we discussed coffee processing at length.
In this part of the podcast we discussed how coffee really gets its flavour and it can be done in a variety of different ways, which is fascinating to learn!
