Processing green coffee is a crucial stage that determines the taste and aroma of the final beverage. Various processing methods give coffee beans unique characteristics, highly valued by roasters, café owners, and coffee suppliers. In this article, we’ll explore popular methods of processing green coffee and present the beans available at Green Coffee Hub.
Natural (Dry) Coffee Processing
The natural, or dry, processing method is one of the oldest. Harvested coffee cherries are dried whole under the sun, spread out in thin layers on special drying beds. Regular turning ensures even drying, which can take up to four weeks. Once the desired moisture level is reached, the pulp and skin are mechanically removed, leaving the beans.
In our selection, we offer beans processed using the natural method:
- Brazil Peaberry Carmo
- Brazil Unex Blend by Carmo
- Brazil Esmeralda
Washed (Wet) Coffee Processing
The washed, or wet, method involves removing the pulp immediately after harvesting using specialized equipment (depulpers). The beans are then fermented in water to remove the remaining mucilage, after which they are washed and dried. This method gives coffee a clean taste, bright acidity, and a well-defined aroma.
In our selection, we offer beans processed using the washed method:
- Ethiopia Acacia
- Vietnam Robusta

Honey (Semi-Dry) Coffee Processing
The honey method combines elements of natural and washed processing. After the skin is removed, part of the mucilage is left on the bean, which is then dried with the sticky layer intact. This method gives the beans a sweeter taste and fuller body, making it popular among coffee enthusiasts who appreciate vibrant and complex profiles.
Currently, Green Coffee Hub does not offer honey-processed beans, but we are ready to source them upon request.
Anaerobic Coffee Processing
Anaerobic processing is a modern method where fermentation occurs in sealed containers without oxygen. The controlled environment allows for the development of complex and unusual flavor characteristics, such as exotic fruits and spices.
Currently, Green Coffee Hub does not offer anaerobically processed beans, but we are ready to organize their supply upon request.
