Resumen

Coffee fermentation is a complex process, mainly involving bacteria and yeasts, whose interaction influences beverage quality. The way this process is conducted affects the interactions between these microorganisms. To identify microbial diversity in fermenting coffee, samples were collected from 20 farms in the Department of Quindío, Colombia. Metataxonomic analyses using high-throughput sequencing and volatile organic compound identification in green coffee beans were performed with HS-SPME and GC-MS. Potential relationships between some families and genera with different fermentation types and coffee quality were evaluated. In our results, samples presented with high richness and diversity were greater for bacteria than for yeast/fungi. The Enterobacteriaceae family dominated at the beginning of fermentation, while Leuconostoc, Lactobacillus, Gluconobacter, and Acetobacter genera dominated at the end, a finding related to pH reduction and final coffee quality. Overall, 167 fungal families were identified, but Saccharomyceaceae dominated from the beginning. Alcohols and esters were the main chemical classes identified in green coffee bean samples from these fermentations. These results will facilitate the identification process conditions that influence the presence and abundance of microorganisms related to quality as well as contributing to the design of strategies to conduct fermentations to improve the final quality of coffee.
