What is the difference between wet-hulled and semi-natural processed coffee beans? What are the characteristics of wet-hulled processed coffee beans?
Wet-hulled processing is a coffee processing method from Indonesia. Here's the specific process of wet-hulling: Farmers first harvest ripe coffee cherries and place them in water tanks to use flotation to remove debris and unripe coffee cherries. Then a depulper is used to remove the pulp and skin, preserving the parchment and mucilage before the beans undergo a relatively short fermentation period. Unlike fully washed processing, the parchment-covered beans are then sold to collectors while still having high moisture content (around 30-50%). These collectors quickly hull the beans while they're still moist, hence the name "wet-hulled." This unique processing method results in coffee beans with distinctive earthy, spicy, and sometimes woody flavors with lower acidity and a fuller body compared to other processing methods.
