Indonesia is the world’s fourth-largest coffee producer and exporter. The arabica coffee beans market is a promising market in the future, especially when talking about specialty coffee. Low-quality coffee benchmarked by C prices, while specialty coffee is vague but many argue it strongly linked to the sheer quality. Poor prices caused by poor quality. Poor quality affected by many factors, one of the most important is processing.
The quality of coffee beans at stake in the drying process is related to how long the coffee beans are dried. What is desired is a process of moisture reduction that is not extreme, with stable and consistent conditions. The traditional, trial, and error practices. No system of collecting and monitoring data for further utilization. The important variable that affects the drying stage is the temperature and humidity of the drying house.
Arduino UNO R4 WiFi Kit collects temperature and humidity, inside and outside of the coffee drying house. Then the data could be the basis for further treatment and/or practices to improve coffee beans quality. With the IoT, this can be overcome by the process of monitoring and access data from sensor networks.
We try to implement the arduino technology able to monitor every day on drying coffee beans. The duration of monitoring can be set as well as data the monitoring results are also directly connected and actually recorded on the database. So we hope this IoT technology can update the information on the drying process of their coffee beans.
