    ELA TENACHA

    In early 2021, Ashebir and Ashenafi established a coffee washing station named Ela Tenecha. Their goal was to process coffee cherries while ensuring fair compensation to  promote sustainability and prosperity in their community.

    FERMENTATION

     Hand-picked coffee cherries are sorted to ensure only ripe, undamaged cherries are pulped using a local machine called Agard. After pulping, the cherries undergo a 60-72 hour wet fermentation process, with daily water changes, until the mucilage is fully removed. The clean parchment coffee is then briefly soaked before skin drying in the shade for up to 4 hours, followed by a 10-day main drying stage on raised beds, with specific sun exposure and protection methods to achieve the desired moisture level of 10.0-10.5%.

    Regular price $65.00
