Together with Red Catuai, it is a highly resistant cultivar suitable for growing in higher altitudes and windy areas. Both Catuais have very refined and clean acidity, has a rich yield and is well-known for this fact. Next to Yellow Catuai there is also Red Catuai – Catuai-vermelho.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e******************************************************\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcess:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt processing facilities in the farms’ main buildings, cherries are then sorted by color and density: green, unripe cherries are set aside for lower quality coffee lots and ripe cherries move forward as differentiated lots. Many farms use canals to sort out floating coffee cherries, which indicate less-dense cherries with improperly formed beans inside. Ripe red or yellow cherries that sink to the bottom of the canals are the most desirable, and they are next transferred to drying patios or beds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNaturally processed coffees, like the \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/allycoffee.com\/coffees\/paubrasil\/\" rel=\"noopener ugc nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePaubrasil\u003c\/a\u003e, are dried as a full cherries. This allows the sugary layer of pectin under the skin of the cherry to be absorbed into the beans as they dry, adding sweetness and hints of earthiness perceptible in the final cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoffee cherries can be dried on stone patios or on raised mesh beds in the sun. In both cases workers constantly turn the cherries with rakes to prevent the formation of mold and to evenly dry all beans to the same moisture levels. Many coffees are transferred to a mechanical drum dryer, often heated with hot air from burning the stalks and branches of pruned coffee trees, to reach a uniform export-ready moisture level of 11.5%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDried coffee cherries are hulled to removed the coffee cherry skin, called pulp, and a layer of parchment seed casing. These are now the more familiar green beans purchased by coffee roasters. Producers (or processors, cooperatives, and exporters) sort the green coffee again according to density and color using shake tables, screens, and laser sorters prior to packing it for export.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProcessing differs depending on the infrastructure and labor realities of each farm, and many farms across the Cerrado contribute to each container of Paubrasil, a community coffee that is sourced according to physical consistency of the green beans and sensorial consistency of the flavor profile of the cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e******************************************************\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion:  Cerrado Mineiro, Minas Gerais\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProducer: Ricardo Tavares\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImporter: Ally (via Mio) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrice (green ex Shipping): £7.85p kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariety: Catuai \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcess: Natural Process\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAltitude: 750 - 1000masl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmount Bought: 1200kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTasting: Nutty, Choc, fruity, round, High Sweetness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlavours like: Dried fruit, Almond, Chocolate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lucid Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"250g \/ Wholebean","offer_id":58990166376829,"sku":"0027-250G","price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Kg \/ Wholebean","offer_id":58990166409597,"sku":"0027-1KG","price":39.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0531\/0601\/6451\/files\/BrazilCerradoMineirocrop.jpg?v=1793101399","url":"https:\/\/www.lucidcoffeeroasters.com\/products\/brazil-cerrado-mineiro-espresso","provider":"Lucid Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
