Has anybody heard of or had experience with fermenting fresh coffee cherries? I'm growing a coffee plant at home and my mind started wandering. I'm not sure of the sugar content and my plant probably won't produce fruit for a couple of years so I'm unfamiliar with the taste, but it could be interesting.

A hint of caffeine in a brew might be a pleasant surprise as well.

Let me know your thoughts.
 
I have never heard of fermenting coffee cherries but that doesn't mean it can't be done. Unfortunately, unless you live at the proper elevation and have other proper growing conditions your coffee tree probably won't bear any fruit. At any rate, good luck with your coffee tree. Please let us know if your coffee tree bears fruit.

Cheers,
Brandon
