Ten years ago, I was hosting back-to-back online meetings, building tech products that impressed corporate boards but never touched real lives. Today, I'm sitting cross-legged on woven mats with farmers in Indonesia, creating something that brings joy to people's mornings worldwide. This isn't just another tech-to-passion career pivot story—it's about discovering that the most advanced coffee culture in the world isn't in Melbourne's laneways or Berlin's third-wave cafés, but right here in Indonesia, where farmers and roasters collaborate at the same table, revolutionizing what specialty coffee can be.
Giling basah, Indonesia's revolutionary wet hull process, transforms necessity into art. Born in 1970s Aceh, this method removes parchment at 30-50% moisture—flipping traditional coffee processing completely.
From Sumatra's famous "Mandheling" with its syrupy body and cedar notes to Flores' emerging forest coffees, wet hulling creates Indonesia's signature jade-blue beans. Once misunderstood, today's wet-hulled coffees score 85+ in competitions.
