Description
Ecological technology for washing coffee in a process with natural fermentation.
With CENICAFE's ECOMILL® technology, the specific water consumption is REDUCED from 20 L/kg of dry parchment coffee (dpc) to values between 0.3 and 0.5 L/kg of dpc. The pollution generated in the process is reduced by over 90%, mixing pulp and mucilage.
With ECOMILL®, over 98% of the mucilage present in the depulped coffee is removed, resulting in high-quality physical and sensory coffee.
Ecomill 500 / 1500 / 3000
ECOMILL® by CENICAFE utilizes a significant portion of the existing infrastructure in processing mills, such as dry receiving hoppers, pulpers, sieves, pulp transport screw, and fermentation tanks.

- Stainless steel coffee receiving hopper.
- Star pulper, for waterless pulping, one or more depending on capacity.
