Colombia El Paraiso Antimaceration
An elegant fragrance reminiscent of violets.
It has a lively acidity and sharp bitterness reminiscent of orange liqueur.
ANTIMACERATION creates a multi-layered and complex flavor.

<How to brew>
These beans lose water much faster than regular coffee beans, so please refer to the recipe below to brew them. We recommend aging them for 1 to 2 weeks after roasting.

<Antimaceration>
This innovative process begins with the careful selection of perfectly ripe cherries, rich in sugars and aroma and flavour precursors. They are then first treated with ozone to eliminate unwanted microorganisms, and then transferred to sealed vacuum tanks.
By removing the air from the tank and creating a negative pressure (vacuum), the cherries enter a spontaneous dehydration state, and the moisture and other components inside begin to move to the outside. This causes the fermentation liquid to accumulate at the bottom of the tank, forming a two-layer structure.
The process that begins at this point is called the Antimaceration process:
The upper layer is less susceptible to oxidation, preserving the cherry's natural red color.
Meanwhile, the cherries on the bottom are fully submerged in the fermenting liquid, undergoing deep infusion in the absence of oxygen.
This fermentation liquid fills the porous structure of the cherries, penetrating the flavor all the way down to the kernel, while simultaneously decomposing the polyphenols, causing the cherries to turn dark brown over time.
Once antimaceration is complete, the top and bottom layers are separated. The cherries on the bottom layer have a richer, more complex flavor.
Finally, the cherries are gently dried in dehumidified dryers using dry air, which prevents the loss of aromas and flavors caused by high temperatures and produces a consistent flavor without over-fermentation and a clean aftertaste.
<Production cost (per 150g)>
① Direct material cost:
The cost of materials allows you to directly gauge how much it costs to produce roasted beans.
(Example) Green beans, zipper bag with valve, front seal, back seal
The direct material cost rate for these beans (direct material cost ÷ list price × 100) is 47.5 % .
②Indirect material costs:
The cost of materials, which cannot be directly calculated as the amount required to produce roasted beans.
(Example) Teeth and rubber parts of a seal cutter ③ Direct labor costs:
Labor costs are a direct measure of how much it costs to produce roasted beans.
(Example) Salaries paid to employees involved in production such as roasting and putting roasted beans into bags. 4) Indirect labor costs:
Labor costs are not directly measured in terms of how much it costs to produce roasted beans.
(Example) Salaries paid to employees not involved in manufacturing, such as clerical work ⑤ Direct expenses:
An expense that directly determines how much it cost to produce roasted beans.
(Example) Expenses incurred when outsourcing some of the manufacturing-related processing, such as putting roasted beans into bags, to an external company. 6. Indirect expenses:
Expenses that cannot be directly measured in terms of how much it cost to produce roasted beans.
(Example) Electricity/gas costs used for roasting, depreciation costs for the roaster, electricity costs for storing green beans at low temperatures
The total of the above items ① to ⑥ is the manufacturing cost.
*Total cost is the cost when the manufacturing cost, selling expenses incurred in selling the product, and general administrative expenses incurred in managing the entire store are included.
