He purchased the farm around 2010 and gradually began planting coffee after finding that growing corn provided little economic opportunity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAfter harvest, the coffee is pulped, with the organic matter used for fertilizer. The depulped coffee is then brought to Lucas’s home, where it ferments in containers for approximately 12 hours. After fermentation, the coffee is thoroughly washed in a tank of clean water before being laid out on tarps to dry. It spends roughly nine hours in the sun each day for four days, completing a simple, hands-on process that reflects the care Lucas brings to his coffee from planting through drying.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy I picked this coffee\u003c\/strong\u003e: A clean and well-rounded coffee.
