These cherries are pulped using a centrifuge, after which a mechanical washer removes the remaining mucilage from the beans. The clean parchment is then dried on the patio, regularly turned from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and covered each afternoon. If necessary, the lot is slowly finished using low temperature mechanical drying. Total drying time is approximately 6–10 days, depending on weather conditions.
