Natural Processing Explained:

After the coffee cherries are picked from the trees they are laid out to dry in the sun. Drying stations vary depending on region; some used brick patios and others use raised beds which enable air to flow around the cherries and dry them quicker. To avoid mould, rotting or further fermentation the cherries are turned regularly. Once the cherries are dried, the skin and fruit flesh is mechanically removed and the green beans are stored before exportation.
