Deiro Garcia is one of the most innovative growers in Huila, he has a farm in
Pitalito (Huila), and since he is a great fan of Harry Potter, he gave it a name
that it will sure surprise you, Lord Voldemort, not only is the name crazy, but
also his approach to coffee fermentation
Deiro has been working with coffee processing for more than 3 years, he has
done several tests with outstanding outcomes and has established a standard
processing for the coffee on his farm. In the microbiology course taken, he
learnt that certain bacteria and yeast strains can help produce distinct coffee
profiles, therefore he decided to reproduce his own bacteria and yeasts using
home-made ferments from different fruits and vegetables
The washed process used for this batch of Pink Bourbon is the traditional
fermentation that takes place in cement tanks. It began with a hopper
fermentation for 24 hours.
