Introduction to FrontStreet Coffee's Washed Yirgacheffe Banko Gotiti Coffee Flavor

The Banko Gotiti Cooperative, located in the Woka production area at the southeastern end of Yirgacheffe, was originally part of the Woka Cooperative under the Yirgacheffe Union YCFCU.

However, as people pursued traceability of raw coffee beans, independent "single-origin" regions were gradually discovered by coffee hunters from around the world. Therefore, in 2012, Banko Gotiti, with about 300 member farmers, was independently established as the "Banko Gotiti Cooperative."

Banko Gotiti village was one of the first village areas to be independently separated. Many small farmers were also members of the original Woka Cooperative, so their coffee production skills are unquestionable.

Washed Processing

First, the raw beans are transported to the wet processing mill, where the skin/pulp of the harvested berries is removed using a pulping machine. They are then left in fermentation tanks for 1-3 days until the mucilage layer decomposes (the duration depends on local temperature and humidity conditions). Next, the parchment beans are washed through channels for 30-60 minutes. Through the channel design combined with water flow, beans with low density and poor quality can be removed.

After washing, the high-quality parchment beans are placed on African-style drying racks for about 14 days. Once drying is complete, they are first stored in the processing mill's warehouse. Before export, the parchment beans are transported to the dry processing mill for hulling, then go through a series of complex screening processes including foreign material removal, silver skin polishing, and gravity screening, before being bagged for export.
