1
In recent years, a processing method known as honey has become more common, especially in parts of Central America.
2
While washed coffee has all of its fruit material removed as quickly as possible, including the skin and the mucilage, in a honey process, only the skin is fully removed,
3
and the seed is allowed to dry in some or all of its fruit mucilage.
4
Honey processing is not as widely used as some of the other methods, but it's increasingly found in places like Costa Rica and El Salvador.
5
While it shares similarities with the Brazilian pulp natural process, there are differences to both the methodology and the results.
6
As with any type of post -harvest processing, the steps involved vary from place to place.
7
In this video, we'll look at how the Chacon family at Las Lajas Micromil
8
in Costa Rica achieves their coffee's distinct profiles using the honey process.
9
Just as in the washed process, coffee cherries first need to be picked ripe and sorted to make sure that only the best cherries are included in production.
10
Also identical to the washed process is the fact that the coffee needs to be depulped as soon as possible after picking, usually between 8 and 12 hours.
11
There are several variations of honey coffee that are commonly found in Costa Rica and elsewhere, and they're typically described with reference to color.
12
You'll often find yellow, red, and black honeys from different mills, for instance.
13
At Las Lajas, all of the honey coffee starts out the same way.
14
The cherry skin is removed by a depulping machine, but 100 % of the mucilage is left on the seeds.
15
The main focus of producing honey coffees at Las Lajas is in the drying phase.
16
coffees at this mill are taken directly from the depulper to the drying area
17
depending on the weather that day and on what oscar
18
and francisca chacon decide is best for
19
that lot the seeds in their mucilage will be set out to dry in one of several different ways
20
for yellow honeys as seen here coffee's moved onto tarp covered patios under full sun
21
or it's raked into a thin layer for fast even drying.
22
For something more fruity and fermented tasting, such as a red or a black honey, the coffee's piled in the greenhouse for certain amounts of time before being agitated,
23
rotated, aerated, and raked out by mill staff.
24
During the drying time, the coffee's fermenting and developing the characteristics that are unique to each honey profile.
25
Drying time depends on both the weather and the individual style of honey process being applied, but it usually takes between two to three weeks for the coffee to reach about 11 % moisture.
26
At Las Lajas, the Chacones focus primarily on honey and natural coffees, and they produce yellow, red, and black honeys with coffees from their different farms.
27
Each honey style has a slightly different profile.
28
Yellow tends to be the most mild in terms of fruitiness, most closely resembling a washed coffee.
29
Red honey tends to have bigger fruit flavors and sweetness, as well as a noticeably more syrupy body.
30
Black honeys express more whiny, boozy, or jammy characteristics with a creamy body, almost like a lighter version of a natural.
31
While this is just one example of the honey process, the chacones are considered standard bearers of the style within the industry, and they're a great example of intentional and innovative processing methodology.
32
Once the coffee is fully dried, it'll be stored in its parchment layer in a warehouse until it's ready to be exported.
33
Then the parchment layer will be removed and the coffee gets shipped.
34
We'll see you next time.

什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
