Hulling Dry Cherry Coffee 89 



struggling away and trying to hull his ' ' bolita ' ' 

 in a Smout Peeler, and, without exaggerating, 

 he had to pass his coffee through the Smout 

 about six times before he could see that he 

 was heating and super-heating his coffee by 

 trying to hull it, with the result that the coffee 

 was so much disfigured that had he put it on the 

 market by itself it would have realised miser- 

 able prices. A planter should therefore bear 

 in mind that a coffee peeler and polisher is only 

 for treating parchment coffee, and should he 

 require to hull some of his coffee, it would be 

 far more advantageous for him to get a coffee 

 huller, even if it is a small one. The term 

 " huller " indicates in the trade that the 

 machine is for treating dry cherry coffee.
