The Most Prolific Writer on the Medan Cupping Bench.
Tania Putri — Senior Q Grader and FnB Tech's lead voice on sensory analysis, integrated QC, and the cupping science behind every shipped lot.
Tania joined FnB Tech's quality team in 2020 and earned her CQI Q Grader license shortly after. She runs the weekly calibration cupping for the integrated business — coffee, fishery, and agritech — and personally evaluates every micro-lot before it enters the export queue.
Her writing focuses on the technical end of coffee — "the cup tells you what the paperwork sometimes doesn't" — covering grind-size science, roast development for aged Sumatra, sensory profiling of Liberica, and field reports from origin trips across Aceh Gayo, Mandailing, and Toraja.
With 27 published articles on fnb.tech, Tania is the most prolific contributor on the platform. She also runs supplier-onboarding QC for new coffee shop buyers entering the network.
