Specialty coffee takes hard work to produce. Sorting coffee beans manually is an intense work if you really want to the right coffee beans for later roasting.

Sorting coffee beans can be a fascinating and rewarding experience, especially if you’re a coffee lover like me.
The first step in sorting coffee beans is to spread them out on a large table or mat. This allows you to visually inspect each bean and remove any that are damaged or discolored. It’s important to remove these defective beans, as they can affect the overall quality and flavor of the coffee.
Next, you’ll want to sort the beans by size. This is usually done using a series of screens with different-sized holes. The beans are poured through the screens, and any that are too small or too large are removed. This helps to ensure that all of the beans are uniform in size, which is important for consistent roasting and brewing.
After the beans are sorted by size, they may be sorted again by color or density. Some coffee roasters use machines to do this automatically, while others prefer to do it by hand. This additional sorting can help to further improve the quality of the coffee and ensure that each batch is consistent.
While sorting coffee beans may seem like a tedious task, it’s an important part of the coffee-making process. By carefully inspecting and sorting each bean, you can help to ensure that the final product is of the highest quality and has the best possible flavor. Plus, if you’re a coffee lover, there’s something satisfying about getting up close and personal with each individual bean and knowing that you’re contributing to the creation of a delicious cup of coffee.
