On the nearby Mt. Merbabu, our farmers are harvesting their coffee. One of our employees, Eko, is working alongside them and showing them better ways to pick and process their coffee.

Harvesting

They are using refractometers to measure the sugar content of cherries and pick the best ones.

Processing

Using Bright Java investments, they have built raised drying beds for better processing. Eko has been teaching them about the prime temperature to keep drying beds at: between 25 and 32 degrees Celcius
