Washed
Washed coffee is processed as soon as the fruit is picked then passed through various pieces of equipment where the coffee beans are mechanically sorted and pulped, essentially being cleaned of any fruit and its sugars (mucilage). When the beans have been fully processed they are dried in order to reach perfect moisture levels.
Often described as having a 'clean' taste, this is by far the most popular process in the coffee world as washing reduces the risk of defects in the coffee, creating a more consistent product and providing better profits to producers.
