The production of quality coffees, with different sensory characteristics, is strongly related to drying techniques. Experiments were carried out on coffee fruits, with the presence and absence of the fruit turnover process during drying, using Catuaí Vermelho 144 coffee fruits, from the Cerrado Mineiro, processed dry and wet. The treatments consisted of natural coffee, natural green coffee, pulped coffee and semi-washed coffee fruits. They were carried out in a completely randomized design, with 4 post-harvest processes, 2 types of drying (with or without Stirring) and 3 replicates, totaling 24 plots. Natural green coffee and natural coffees were more responsive in the final scores, when not stirred during the drying process, unlike the coffees obtained by wet processing. Peeled coffees obtained the highest scores for the attributes, regardless of the adoption or not of stirring during the drying process. It was possible to obtain scores above 80 points by the SCAA protocol, without stirring the coffee.
