... Bulu District. Most of the coffee in Bantaeng is grown in a mixed garden system. However, the drying process has a relatively long time span, so that the coffee harvest has a low level of dryness and the selling price is also not optimal. From these problems, the authors compare the temperature in the dryer with the greenhouse effect system and traditional drying, which is 10% - 30% degrees Celsius hotter using the greenhouse effect. For the efficiency level, the drying time between the greenhouse effect system and traditional drying is about 5-12 days faster using the greenhouse effect drying system.
