The Fermentation Training Camp is an immersive hands-on coffee processing course, hosted by Lucia Solis, a former winemaker, now coffee processing specialist. The course covers the microbiology and science of coffee fermentations with classroom sessions & practical application in the wet mill.
Currently, our "home-base" is located just outside of Antigua, Guatemala. But we have hosted camps in Colombia, Indonesia and Kenya. It is possible we may revisit some of these locations in the future.
FTC is a focused course on coffee processing, so the main audience is coffee producers. But the event is open to anyone interested, whether you work in the industry, or are simply an enthusiast wanting to learn more. The course begins with microbiology fundamentals, and progresses quickly as we process coffee together throughout the week.
FTC will be taught in English, as this captures the broadest section of producers globally. The event is typically 4 or 5 days, and during this week you will spend the entire day with us at the coffee mill. We will break up the day with classroom sessions and hands-on processing in the mill. And Lunch + Dinner are provided at the farm. Some of these details change depending on if the event is hosted in Guatemala or another location.
Your ticket will include ground transportation to/from the airport in Guatemala City, lunch + dinner everyday of the event, a detailed workbook, t-shirt + hat. Some event locations may include lodging as well, this is NOT included in Antigua.
Your time with us in Antigua will be an intense week of learning the fundamentals of microbiology and fermentation, alongside hands-on practice in the wet-mill. Throughout the week we will cover topics including, but not limited to:
