The present invention relates to a method and kit for testing the fermentation rate, fermentation byproducts and fermentation completion of coffee mucilage. The method comprises testing the fermentation rate of coffee by testing a sample of coffee suspended in water using at least one member of a group of disclosed substrates and test kits and, upon color formation, comparing the resulting color to a color scale to indirectly determine the fermentation rate, fermentation byproducts and fermentation completion. The corresponding kit comprises at least one of a pH testing strip, at least one ethanol testing strip, at least one lactic acid testing strip, and a thermometer.
