Ingredients

  • 5–10 kg (yields ≈1 kg green beans) Robusta coffee cherries (ripe red)

Method

  1. Harvest ripe red cherries from Robusta plants (Coffea canephora) — pick by hand to avoid unripe.
  2. Depulp: remove outer skin/pulp (use manual depulper or soak/ferment 24–48 hours then rinse).
  3. Dry beans: spread hulled beans on raised screens → sun-dry 7–14 days, turning regularly, until 10–12% moisture (beans rattle).
  4. Hull: remove parchment shell (use mortar or huller).
  5. Sort: remove defects → clean green beans.
  6. Roast: preheat oven 200 °C (400 °F) → spread beans on sheet → roast 10–20 min, stirring, until desired roast (light 10 min for earthy, dark 15–20 min for bold/bitter).
  7. Cool rapidly → degas 12–24 hours → grind & brew — strong, earthy homemade Robusta coffee.
