Pre-export QA checks
This topic explains the key quality assurance (QA) checks performed before coffee export, ensuring that lots meet international standards for safety, consistency, and flavor integrity.
High quality
Lot segregation and labeling
This topic explains how lot segregation and labeling are managed in coffee drying and storage, why they are essential for traceability, and how they impact quality consistency and market value.
Sampling for moisture and a-w
This topic explains how to properly sample coffee for measuring moisture content and water activity (a-w), why representative sampling is critical, and how these tests ensure stability and quality.
Moisture targets (≈10–12%) and water activity
This topic explains the importance of hitting correct moisture content and water activity targets in coffee drying, why they matter for stability and quality, and how farmers measure and manage them.
Data logging and repeatability
This topic explains how data logging in honey and pulped natural processes supports repeatability, consistency, and quality improvement across harvests.
Lot building and grading
This topic explains how lots are built and graded in natural (dry) coffee processing, why these steps are critical for consistency, traceability, and market classification, and how they influence final value.
