<Milan Farm>
Milan Farm focuses only on varieties that are attracting attention around the world, and is always working on new refining methods. They are particularly active in the "culturing process." This refining method enhances the flavor of varieties that are not particularly flashy, such as "Geisha" and "Bourbon," and the disease-resistant and easy-to-grow variety "Castillo," expanding the possibilities of coffee.
At the same time, we are working with universities and research institutes to investigate the changes in bacterial types and proportions brought about by the "culturing process" and compare them with regular "Castillo," and analyze the data.
The Milan farm is located in the Andes Mountains in the Risaralda department, and spreads over 1400-1800m of hot spring and volcanic soil. It produces a wide variety of micro lots of crops such as platanos (green bananas), corn, and beans. Everyone who works on the farm is like family, and it is clear that the whole team is striving to improve the farm's production and processes.
<Nitro Wash>
① Cherries are harvested, sorted, and pulped using a pulper.
② The parchment coffee is then transferred to a tank for the fermentation process. Nitrogen, yeast, and water are added until the coffee is submerged, and it is left to ferment for 3 to 4 days.
③ After washing with clean water, it moves to the drying process. It is dried naturally for about 20 to 30 days.
Yeast samples from the Milan farm are sent to a laboratory in Bogotá for analysis.
The results of the analysis showed that the yeast (two types) used this time were most active in an environment containing only nitrogen, promoting fermentation.
We introduced a machine that produces nitrogen from oxygen and conducted a process of trial and error.
Starting with small amounts and adjusting through cupping to achieve the desired flavors, this process has been perfected.
<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 39.0% .
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) Costs 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.
(Examples) Electricity/gas costs used for roasting, depreciation costs for the roaster, electricity costs for storing green beans at low temperatures
The total of items ① to ⑥ above 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.
