This project introduces the CROWD ROASTER brand to such people.
The third installment is an introduction to "[ SL28 ] Kenya Kiamabara Coffee Factory".

Prestigious factory in Nyeri, Kenya

 
Nyeri district in Kenya is by far the most famous and high-quality coffee producing area.
 
This land, loved by roasters around the world, is home to many prestigious coffee factories.
One of them is Kiamabara Coffee Factory, which belongs to Mgaga Agricultural Cooperative.
This is a famous factory that is praised for having the firm sweetness typical of Nyeri.
 
Mgaga Agricultural Cooperative is made up of 900 farmers from nearby areas. Kiamabara was established near Karatina in Nyeri District in the early 1980s as a washing station to process the cherries they produced.
 
 
This factory strives to create a sustainable farm, aiming to stabilize production and improve quality through farm training and seminars. In addition, managers receive training every year and are proactive in incorporating the latest information.
 
Harvested cherries are brought to the factory as cherries. This is done in consideration of the use of high-performance factory pulpers for quality, equalization of production processing time, and the recycling environment of wastewater during the wet process.
