Javabooch Fermentation Camp
A 5-day immersive, hands-on training experience for coffee producers ready to master the art and science of anaerobic fermentation.
From Guesswork to Greatness
Anaerobic fermentation offers incredible potential, but without precise control, it also carries immense risk. A small mistake can ruin an entire lot. Our Fermentation Camp is designed to eliminate that risk.
We provide you with the knowledge, hands-on practice, and proven protocols to move from hopeful experimentation to confident, consistent production of high-value, uniquely flavored coffees. This is your opportunity to learn directly from the pioneers of the process.
What You Will Learn
Our curriculum is built on years of research and real-world application. You will leave with the skills to immediately implement these techniques on your own farm.

Understand the roles of yeast, bacteria, pH, and temperature in flavor development.
Tank Management
Learn proper setup, sealing, CO2 flushing, and sanitation for any equipment budget.
