What Fat Cat Coffee Roasters say
Luz Helena Salaza
Luz Helena, and the team of pickers selectively harvest only the ripest cherries. The cherries are then transported to Maracay sorting area, where the team meticulously hand-sorts and float them to eliminate any low-density, underripe, or defective beans. Then, the cherries are transported to our processing center, La Pradera, in Grainpro bags or suitable containers to preserve their freshness.
Upon arrival, we continue with our rigorous quality protocols. The cherries are placed in water tanks to float them, removing any low-density beans and external material. The water used in this stage is recycled for more baches that require floating.
Once this water is no longer suitable to be used for floating, it is filtered through a series of specialized tanks before being irrigated into vetiver grass beds and is released as oxygen.
This natural filtration process purifies the water, ensuring no contaminated water is discharged from our processing center and maintaining an environmentally sustainable operation
