Coffee Processing: Lactic Process Washed Fermentation EXPLAINED (w/ Lucia Solis)

This video shows a Lactic Process washed fermentation. It's the third (and final) video in this coffee fermentation series, showing processing techniques I learned about at a week-long Fermentation Training Camp hosted by Lucia Solis in January of 2023.
The first video about Yeast Inoculation lays a good foundation for understanding what happens in this video, so if you haven't seen it - watch it here first: • Coffee Processing: Yea...
1:10 Floating and Sorting Coffee Cherries
2:07 Pulping the Coffee
2:59 Lactic Process Explanation
6:01 Lactic Process Demo
8:19 Fermentation Time: 6 Hours
9:16 Fermentation Time: 20 Hours
9:29 Fermentation Time: 44 Hours
9:47 Fermentation Time: 68 Hours
10:00 Washing and Drying Coffee
Note: This video is descriptive of what we did, not prescriptive or intended as a guide. There was way more than I can accurately cover in a short UA-cam video, so if you want to learn these processes in more detail, I recommend attending Lucia Solis’ Fermentation Training Camp yourself. AND listening to her podcast.

This series is great! Thanks for putting this all together.

[@pavelgrebnev3868]

Can't express how much I love Luxia's podcast and her views at the world. Even outside the coffee theme (I'm just a coffee-drinker, not a producer or whoever), it helped me to dive into fermantation (experimenting with kombucha and making compost in an apartement). Thank you for this series, I'm glad that I can see it, share it and collect all the precious information

Thanks so much! Glad you’re getting into fermentation, even outside of coffee. It’s a fun world! Enjoy.

Amazing content keep going😁✌️

Thank you! Will do!

I've been watching your videos since the Barista series. I've enjoyed the funny ones like the "everclear coffee" video and the serious ones like this. I now use an Origami pour over brewer from Slow Pour because of your recommendation. I loved the Koffee Kat videos, and I love the Roaster Kat videos. You always put out quality. Thank you for all the years of good stuff.

[@roasterkat]

Awesome! Thank you so much for watching and following along for all the videos. I’m glad you’re enjoying the variety because I love making all the types of videos as well. Thank you thank you!

Did you use salt with iodine or iodine free salt for the lactic fermentation?

[@roasterkat]

This is a great question and i speak specifically about this in the video at the point we add the salt!

[@GaryHuntPianoman]

What is your process for low acid coffee ?

[@roasterkat]

I don’t quite understand your question. What do you mean by low acid coffee?
