POB Photography: Hand Sorting, to Get Good Quality of Coffee

There are many factors to have high quality coffee. Not only the origin or variety of coffee, bu also how they grow, is it organic or not. How to process, is it semiwash, fullwash, or honey process. But also to have good green beans by sorting. Sorting could be by machine or hand sorting.

Hand sorting is much better than machine sorting. We could get higher quality. Katoomba Coffee Home Factory is doing hand sorting of their coffee for the consumers. Katoomba Coffee was founded in 2020 at the emerging of Pandemic Covid-19. Now the company has supplied roasted beans to hundreds of coffee shops in Aceh Province of Indonesia.

The company is settled in Gayo Highlands, a region which produce arabica coffee. Gayo Highlands is the largest region in Asia to produce arabica coffee.

Hand sorting, It is definitely a great manual task. Looks alike finding needle in Haystack, lol. I guess that's the secret behind tasty coffee. ☕😊 !PIZZA

Hehe. Yes. It’s really a hard working task. But, when someone experience in doing it, it would be an easy task. But, sure it consumes a lot of time to finish it.

So, we have to appreciate them when we sip a cup of coffee 😄

Looks like painstaking work to pick out the bad beans. I think we fail to realize how hard others work, sometimes. Especially so when the product is something as common as coffee.

Thanks for this! Cheers!

That’s so true. It’s not an easy work to sort the coffee beans, especially by hand. I think, it’s one of the reason why coffee is an expensive drink..

It's hard work, after sorting it should be baked and rotated, if I'm not mistaken that it bakes nicely everywhere and gets the smell of aroma and not after a burn, which is not easy to get that smell, you need to have time and patience .

All this to drink one good Coffee ;))
