processing of coffee in india is accomplished using two methods, dry processing and wet processing. dry processing is the traditional method of drying in the sun which is favoured for its flavour producing characteristics. in the wet processing method, coffee beans are fermented and washed, which is the preferred method for improved yields. as to the wet processing, the beans are subject to cleaning to segregate defective seeds. the beans of different varieties and sizes are then blended to derive the best flavour. the next procedure is to roast either through roasters or individual roasters. then the roasted coffee is ground to appropriate sizes.
