Role of enzymes in coffee processing (removing pectin layer, soluble solids content)

Pectinolytic microorganisms are also used in the fermentation of coffee to remove the
mucilaginous coat from the coffee beans

The mucilage in the coffee beans can also be removed by adding enzymes that can degrade the
polysaccharides that compose mucilage, for example, the pectinase enzyme

Wet processing, dry processing, semi-dry processing
