Effect of processing method on seed yield and quality of coffee

The effect of three methods (dry, wet and steam methods of processing coffee berries on dry weights of seeds, the percentage of light seeds and sensory qualities of brewed coffee were evaluated. The steam method produced the heaviest seeds with the least amount of light seeds. The dry method produced the lowest quality seeds in terms of weight and percentage light seeds. Fermentation increased the sensory qualities of processed coffee. Washing of seeds after fermentation reduced the sensory qualities. Results are discussed in the context of processing coffee in Sri Lanka
