Duromina Cooperative from Gema Agaro Region | Flavor Profile of Ethiopian Heirloom Washed Grade 1

These green beans are gathered from the "Duromina Cooperative" processing plant located in Agaro, Oromia State, southern Ethiopia. The cooperative is managed by Mr. Ibrahim and was established in 2010.

The coffee cherries in this region are sourced through traditional Ethiopian coffee cherry collection methods, provided by small-area farmers. The processing plant can handle approximately 4,000 kilograms of coffee cherries per hour, using nearby river water as its water source. The coffee is grown at altitudes of 1,800-2,000 meters. The green beans produced by Duromina Cooperative are considered the top choice in the Agaro region due to their unique peach flavor, rounded juice profile, and refreshing citrus acidity.

Duromina is located in the Goma area, with most farms situated between 1,900-2,100 meters above sea level. The name chosen by these farmers has a very direct meaning: "Make More Money!" It roughly translates to "earn more money."

FrontStreet Coffee Recommended Brewing Method:

Dripper: Hario V60

Water Temperature: 90°C

Grind Size: Fuji Royal grinder setting 3.5

Brewing Technique: 1:15 coffee-to-water ratio, 15g coffee grounds. First pour 25g water and let bloom for 25 seconds. Second pour to 120g, then pause. Wait until the water level in the coffee bed drops to half, then slowly pour water until reaching 225g total. Total extraction time around 2:00.

Analysis: This three-stage brewing method clearly separates the front, middle, and back-end flavors of the coffee. Because the V60 has many ribs and drains quickly, pausing the pour helps extend the extraction time.
