Summary

The present invention seeks to solve the problems of the art by providing a coffee fruit pulping and sorting device by pressure that includes a brewing element with an inner surface and an outer surface. The breastpiece element comprises one or more pulping channels located on the inner surface of the breastpiece, one or more of these pulping channels being parallel to each other and perpendicular to a horizontal plane. Additionally, the present invention provides a coffee bean pulping machine incorporating said breastpiece element for the pulping of ripe coffee beans by pressure and separation by means of tilting gates with counterweights for the exit of the immature coffee beans depending on whether the pressure exerted is greater than that required for pulping a ripe coffee bean.
