A process where coffee cherries undergo an oxygen-deprived fermentation, followed by a rapid temperature change. This sudden shock seals the pores of the coffee bean, locking in the unique flavors and aromas. Why use lab-isolated microbes? Using carefully isolated microbes in a controlled bioreactor ensures a clean, consistent, and highly predictable fermentation, preventing the development of undesirable off-flavors.
