Carbonic Maceration is a process that is often used in wine production, and it is also becoming increasingly popular in coffee processing. In this method, whole coffee beans with pulp are placed in a sealed container where carbon dioxide is added, creating an anaerobic environment. This environment encourages fermentation in the intact coffee cherries. The fermentation process can improve the flavor profile of the coffee by changing the chemical composition of the beans. After fermentation, the pulp is removed and the coffee dried up. The result is often a coffee with unique fruity, floral and complex flavours.
