Initially, they purchased coffee from smallholders in the surrounding region that was home-processed on small pulping machinery. In 2024 they built out a wet mill so they could start buying cherry, and processing the coffee themselves. This allows for more systematic quality control that can start before the coffee is pulped of its cherries. It's also allowed them to expand their reach. They currently buy from just under 200 farmers, whose farms span an altitude range of 1600 to 1800 meters above sea level. The coffee is pulped of its fruit and then fermented for 24-36 hours prior to washing away the sticky mucilage layer. After the coffee is rinsed, it is moved to raised beds where it will dry in 1-2 weeks depending on sun exposure. Peaberries are small, rounded beans that occur when one of the seeds within the coffee cherry fails to germinate, leaving the other to occupy the entire space. Without a second seed, the coffee bean takes on the characteristic rounded shape, rather than the typical oval shaped bean with one flat side. Peaberries are often dense, and can take high heat in the roaster without having the roast get away from you. We also bought the AB and AA selections that will be listed later this month.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDescription from Coffee Shrub.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coffee By Gillespie","offers":[{"title":"12 oz \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":54048574406948,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 12oz","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12 oz \/ French Press","offer_id":54048574439716,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 12oz","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12 oz \/ Chemex","offer_id":54048574472484,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 12oz","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12 oz \/ Automatic Drip","offer_id":54048574505252,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 12oz","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12 oz \/ Manual Pour-Over","offer_id":54048574538020,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 12oz","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12 oz \/ Aeropress","offer_id":54048574570788,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 12oz","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12 oz \/ Espresso Grind","offer_id":54048574603556,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 12oz","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12 oz \/ Other (indicate in notes at checkout)","offer_id":54048574636324,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 12oz","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 kg\/2.2 lb \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":54048574669092,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 1kg","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 kg\/2.2 lb \/ French Press","offer_id":54048574701860,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 1kg","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 kg\/2.2 lb \/ Chemex","offer_id":54048574734628,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 1kg","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 kg\/2.2 lb \/ Automatic Drip","offer_id":54048574767396,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 1kg","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 kg\/2.2 lb \/ Manual Pour-Over","offer_id":54048574800164,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 1kg","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 kg\/2.2 lb \/ Aeropress","offer_id":54048574832932,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 1kg","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 kg\/2.2 lb \/ Espresso Grind","offer_id":54048574865700,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 1kg","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 kg\/2.2 lb \/ Other (indicate in notes at checkout)","offer_id":54048574898468,"sku":"Tanzania Mbozi Mbewe Peaberry 1kg","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1500\/2678\/files\/tanzania-sweet-marias-coffee-mbozi-2.jpg?v=1779487430","url":"https:\/\/gillespie.coffee\/products\/tanzania-mbozi-mbewe-peaberry","provider":"Coffee by Gillespie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
