Goro washing station has been running since 2013 and came under its current ownership in 2020, when Habtamu Fekadu Aga took over. A Penagos pulping machine went in two years later, which matters more than it sounds because it produces considerably more consistent lots than older equipment tends to. Water comes from a deep gravel rock well, and they treat wastewater by pH before disposing of it rather than running it back into the surrounding land.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFarmers supplying the station get agronomy training covering organic practices, shade growing, and regenerative approaches, and the station is involved in renovating the nearby elementary school. They offer interest-free advance payment before harvest and will collect cherry directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe processing is washed with a bit of texture left in. Sorting and pulping leave roughly ten percent mucilage on the bean, which ferments for 24 hours before the coffee is hand washed and moved to raised drying beds. It stays out of direct sunlight, gets turned every few hours, and workers measure moisture and pull defects throughout. Nine to twelve days later it's bagged and stored. The station receives around 900 tonnes of red cherry annually and converts that down to about 153 tonnes of parchment, with two quality control managers tracking moisture and timing throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flavors in the cup are bright and refined, with a velvety mouthfeel and a complex fruity quality that moves between melon and stonefruit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pastime Coffee","offers":[{"title":"10oz","offer_id":52508524871973,"sku":"coffee:singleorigin:ethiopia:goro:10oz","price":22.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2lb","offer_id":52508524904741,"sku":"coffee:singleorigin:ethiopia:goro:2lb","price":63.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lb","offer_id":52508524937509,"sku":"coffee:singleorigin:ethiopia:goro:5lb","price":138.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0853\/1532\/2149\/files\/Goro.png?v=1780440493","url":"https:\/\/pastime.coffee\/products\/goro-ethiopia","provider":"PASTIME COFFEE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
