  • Anaerobic fermentation is a step in coffee processing that is gaining recognition amongst producers and consumers alike for the unique flavor profiles and value it can generate. However, there are a few things to note about the term “anaerobic” in the coffee context. In this video, shot at La Chumeca in Tarrazu, Costa Rica, we follow Martin Ureña and his son Emilio through the making of their delicious anaerobic natural coffees. The video shows how this type of fermentation is done in the La Chumeca, Costa Rica case and we discuss ways to most accurately think about - and talk about - anaerobic fermentation. Learn more about this and other processing methods at cafeimports.com/education, or visit and subscribe to the Cafe Imports TH-cam channel for more videos.

    I'm from Costa Rica from a coffee producer family. And this is one of the best explanations for fermentation process. Incredibly informative and accurate. Thank you!

    I didn’t really think much about coffee from South America until I tried carbonic maceration and anaerobic process. Next level cofee.

    I’ve had probably 20 different beans of various varieties and origins. A caturra from cauca Double Anaerobic washed roasted by prism coffee works is by far the fruitiest and most floral smelling and tasting coffee I’ve ever had. Never had one before. It blew my mind
    Just commenting so you what someone who is just getting into specialty coffee thought when he tried anaerobic for the first time.

    Well made video; but if I’m not mistaken, we didn’t really hear how anaerobic fermentation impacts the end result. How does it compare to the same coffee processed without the anaerobic phase? Is anaerobic fermentation always better, is it sometimes better, or is it simply different?

    • @cafeimports1412
      @cafeimports1412  ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Thank you for your question! This is one of the issues with how the industry currently talks about anaerobic fermentation. All the term refers to is one step in a process of several. Until we land on better descriptors, including both the amount of time the anaerobic step was done for and the rest of what’s done to a coffee during processing, it’s very hard to unpack just what the anaerobic step contributes. We can probably do so in some specific cases, but we are not yet at a level of universal understanding.
      It’s not as straightforward as the differences we might universally expect between a natural and washed of the same coffee, for example. There are also few opportunities to cup anaerobically fermented coffees next to the same coffee processed the same way minus the anaerobic step so it’s hard to say what the exact differences are.
      We know people like how these coffees come out because anaerobically fermented coffees are gaining ground in the market, and producers/processors are creating more and more of them. With that we know at least someone has enjoyed the effects of the anaerobic step!

      Yes. In Costa Rica that liquid is made into a “juice concentrate” or as a bottled beverage. The closest thing I can compare it to is Mexican Jamaica tea. There are also health benefits to the coffee pulp fruit juice.

    If it takes 72 hrs for Aner. fermentation, and days of drying, would it be too slow to produce even just 1 ton of dried beans ? This looks more like an experimental station I guess ( about 20 drying beds, each produce 50kg or less of dried beans ). i hope the farm can produce enough for the season to be sustainable ! Good luck !

    It doesn’t do anything good for the industry . Calling anaerobic fermentation , there should be use low oxygen fermentation process of coffee, why use a term that has been use in science describing metabolism process of a cell or the way of energy creation of a cell. It sound ridiculous to me , maybe for the rest of consumers who are ignoring the term …

    • @Conservator.
      @Conservator. ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s called anaerobic fermentation because there is a low level of oxygen during fermentation. Hence the water locks on the barrels. See 3:29

    • @byronperez519
      @byronperez519 ปีที่แล้ว

      in science fermentation is anaerobic in nature. you should study more about what is fermentation, anaerobic cell respiration, aerobic cell respiration, the production of ATP, the types of fermantation base on their metabolism waste, types of microorganism , the control of fermentation base on time and temperature, the nomenclature in coffee is so incorrect. We have the responsability to really unrdestand and study and no just base our knowledge on a video.
