Coffee - TIGER - Whole Bean Medium Roast Robusta Imported from India (Wet Process)

Wet Washed Process:

What makes this process yield a different flavor profile than the others:

The washed process for robusta coffee beans involves using water to enhance the clarity and brightness of the coffee's flavor. 

*Harvesting: Ripe robusta cherries are picked by hand, to ensure quality.

*Sorting: The harvested cherries are sorted to remove any defective or unripe beans. 

*Pulping: The sorted cherries are pulped using a machine that removes the outer skin and some of the mucilage (the sticky substance surrounding the beans). This is a crucial step in the washed process.

*Fermentation: The pulped beans are then placed in fermentation tanks, where they are soaked in water for 12 to 48 hours. This allows natural enzymes to break down the remaining mucilage. The fermentation time can vary depending on the desired flavor profile.

*Washing: After fermentation, the beans are thoroughly washed with clean water to remove any leftover mucilage. This helps achieve a cleaner taste and more pronounced acidity in the final coffee.

*Drying: The washed beans are then spread out to dry, until they reach the desired moisture content (around 11-12%).

*Hulling**: Once dried, the outer parchment layer is removed.

The washed process typically results in a coffee that has a bright acidity, cleaner flavor profile, and often highlights the inherent characteristics of the robusta bean, such as its earthy and nutty notes.

Intensity: [██████████] 10/10

Robusta coffee beans naturally contain double the caffeine levels in comparison to arabica beans.

Its always a strong brew.

• High Antioxidant Content: Contains up to 2-3 times more antioxidant compounds, specifically chlorogenic acids, than Arabica, which fight oxidative stress, reduce inflammation, and may reduce cancer risks.
• Strong Cognitive Boost: The higher caffeine content provides an intense, immediate energy boost, improving alertness, memory, and cognitive performance.
• Better Digestive Tolerance: Generally lower in acidity, which can be beneficial for reducing digestive issues or acid reflux compared to other coffee types.
• Weight Management & Metabolism: Caffeine acts as a metabolism booster, helping to break down body fat and suppress appetite when consumed as part of a healthy diet.
• Liver & Cardiovascular Protection: Regular, moderate consumption is associated with a reduced risk of liver diseases (like cirrhosis and cancer) and supports cardiovascular health.
• Improved Physical Performance: Boosts physical endurance and reduces perceived exertion during exercise.
• Mental Well-being: Stimulates neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin, potentially reducing the risk of depression and improving mood

Store in a cool, dark place

Heat and light break down coffee oils. Keep beans in a cupboard or pantry at room temperature, far from the stovetop, oven, or sunlight.

Avoid moisture

Coffee beans are porous and absorb surrounding moisture, which can ruin flavor. Never store coffee in the refrigerator or freezer for daily use, as condensation occurs when opening the container.

Buy smart & keep whole

Buy in small quantities (enough for 2–4 weeks) to ensure maximum freshness. Keep beans whole and grind only what you need, just before brewing, to retain aroma and flavor.

Minimize handling

Every time you open the bag, you introduce oxygen. Re-seal the bag promptly after each use to protect the remaining beans.

A little care goes a long way in keeping your Peep’l coffee bold and delicious ✨
