Coffee Process

Process

Carbonic Maceration

Varietal

74110 & 74112

Elevation

2,200 masl

Carbonic maceration is an oxygen-free fermentation process where whole or pulped coffee cherries are sealed in CO2-filled tanks, allowing sugars to break down into acids and alcohol. This controlled method enhances clarity and complexity while avoiding off-flavors. At Tracon’s Deri Kidame Washing Station, cherries are washed, sorted, fermented for 72 hours, and dried on raised beds for 21 days to ensure even drying and rich flavor.
