Welcome to the Coffee Processing Course

This course is mainly designed to support two types of audiences:

(1) coffee washing station operators and staff who do not have sufficient access to opportunities to learn appropriate coffee processing practices, and
(2) extension staff and trainers who lack access to standardized training materials to help processors apply these practices at washing stations.

This coffee processing course covers the key aspects of coffee processing through a series of practical learning modules, as outlined below. To support different learning styles and facilitate both self-study and training delivery, a range of learning materials is available for each topic, including audio lessons, instructional videos, and downloadable PDF resources.

The downloadable materials include the Coffee Processing Protocol, Coffee Washing Station Handbook, Quick Guide to Different Processing Methods, and other practical reference documents that can be used in the field.

The audio and video materials provide step-by-step explanations and demonstrations of key processing practices, making it easier for learners to understand and apply the concepts in real-world coffee processing operations.

For extension staff, field officers, and trainers, these resources can also serve as training tools for planning and delivering capacity-building sessions for washing station staff, coffee processors, and cooperative members, helping to ensure consistent adoption of recommended processing practices.
