Milling. After being processed via the wet or dry method, coffee beans are milled to remove their stiff parchment and light, translucent silver skin. They are then sorted by size and density. The milling and sorting processes work to bring like beans together, and this is critically important to good roasting. Defects, which may include broken or underripe beans, are also removed during milling and sorting.
