Most of the washing stations in Kenya are using eco pulpers that use less water.
Further, to mitigate the risk of pollution, the waste water is not allowed to flow into the natural ways (streams or rivers) instead it drain and sits on pans for sometime that allow the waste to sediment and water will evaporate leaving the waste sludge behind (that used for compost) .
Not all the factories have transitioned but some have, it’s called; Pinhalense eco pulper
📍24Hrs Dry Fermentation Washed
We do 24 hrs fermentation- (dry fermentation) that’s without any water, then we wash and thereafter soak in clean water for 12 hrs before drying on flat beds.

Acidity explanation:
When customers ask us to recommend beans, the number one question is about flavor, and the number two is “Is this acidic?”
First of all, the feeling of the acidity varies from person to person. Once I met two guests. A said he would like to drink acid coffee, while B said he would not drink acid coffee. So I made a Natural Yirgacheffe Blue Donkey for them. A said that it was too acidic, and B said that it was okay. It is clear that there are individual differences in the sensitivity of acidity.
Since there are individual differences, is there any criterion for reference?
We generally use several fruits to make the evaluation from the least acidic to the most acidic. From 1~5 is strawberry jam, grapes, apples, oranges, lemons. So that the scores of relative acidity can help the consumers with a reference in purchasing.
