PLUM MADNESS FROM DIEGO BERMUDEZ!
Diego Bermudez is known for pushing the boundaries of fermentation and processing at his farm, El Paraiso, and this Red Plum P-02 lot is a great example. We're stoked to work with the team at El Paraiso, and we're super excited to share the results with you. Harvest starts with hand-picking the ripest cherries and floating them to remove any density defects. The cherries are then disinfected with ozone and placed in tanks to ferment anaerobically in water and red plum culture for 36 hours. The coffee is pulped and demucilaged, and fermented for 12 hours. The coffee undergoes a thermal shock to fix precursors and is dried in a dehumidifier to 10.5% moisture. The result is fruity and sweet with lush notes of red plum, raspberry, panela, and honey.

Agtron is a scale used to measure the color of roasted coffee by shining light onto a coffee sample and measuring the reflected light to assign a numerical value. It provides an objective way to track roast development and maintain consistency.
