Java Frinsa Estate

Wildan Mustofa is the owner of this estate. In 2010, he and his wife Atieq began their coffee cultivation project in the Sindangkerta Weninggalih area. Since then, Java Frinsa Estate farms have become their main cultivation area. From the first year of production, Wildan has focused on quality, requiring strict management and processing methods. While most Indonesian coffee producers were using wet-hulling processing, Wildan focused on fully washed processing methods.

This coffee is the Sigarar Utang variety cultivated by Frinsa Estate. Frinsa Estate is situated at an altitude of 1300-1600 meters, covering about 110 hectares in West Java (locally known as "Sunda"). At 1400 meters altitude, they have a washing station, a well-ventilated storage space, and drying facilities. This means they can fully control product quality from harvesting, grading, sorting to shipping. Most of their coffee is processed using fully washed methods, but they also do some wet-hulling and natural processing, mainly for the local market. They classify coffee batches according to planting location, variety, and harvest date.

Through cooperation with coffee research centers, they have divided their farms into sections to plant many different unknown varieties. Because the coffee trees are still too young, no one yet knows how the flavor profiles of these coffee trees will develop. In addition to their own coffee production, they also process coffee for local small-scale coffee farmers.

The harvest season is from May to September, with the main harvest occurring from June to August. After coffee cherries are harvested, they are manually sorted to remove unripe and pest-damaged coffee cherries.

The harvested berries undergo depulping and are first dry-fermented for 15-18 hours, then water is added for continued fermentation of 10-12 hours. After complete fermentation, they are washed thoroughly with clean water.

Currently, most coffee is first dried on racks in greenhouses for 1-2 days, then moved to patios for drying. The drying time takes about 14-20 days, depending on whether it rains during the drying period.
