Harvesting and processing cocoa pods
Auto-translated text View Original Source

1948 AD (C20th AD)
Video description

The harvested pods are opened —typically with a machete— to expose the beans.The pulp and cocoa seeds are removed and the rind is discarded. The pulp and seeds are then piled in heaps, placed in bins, or laid out on grates for several days. During this time, the seeds and pulp undergo "sweating", where the thick pulp liquefies as it ferments. The fermented pulp trickles away, leaving cocoa seeds behind to be collected.
