What Is Natural Process Coffee?

Natural process coffee is produced by drying harvested coffee cherries with the fruit still surrounding the seed. After drying, the fruit layers are removed and the green coffee is prepared for roasting. Because the coffee spends more time in contact with the cherry during drying, natural coffees can develop pronounced sweetness, ripe-fruit aromatics and a fuller sensory character. The result still depends on variety, origin, fermentation, drying conditions and roast profile.

How Natural Coffees Taste

Natural coffees are often chosen by drinkers who enjoy sweetness, fruit and aroma. Depending on the coffee, you may encounter berry-like, tropical, winey, chocolatey or fermented notes. A clean natural coffee can still be structured and balanced, so compare the individual tasting notes and roast levels rather than choosing by process alone.

Best Brewing Methods for Natural Process Coffee

Filter brewing is an excellent way to explore the clarity and aromatic range of natural coffee. V60 and other pour-over methods can highlight fruit definition, while AeroPress can produce a sweeter and more concentrated cup. Natural coffees can also work beautifully as espresso when the roast and recipe suit that use.
