<![CDATA[Abstract: The Mberasmo Page Coffee Farmer Group in Boangmanalu Village, Pakpak Bharat Regency, faces challenges in post-harvest coffee processing, which is still carried out manually, as well as the suboptimal utilization of coffee husk waste. This community service program aimed to improve post-harvest processing efficiency and farmers' skills through the application of a coffee pulping machine and the utilization of coffee husk waste as compost. The activities consisted of preparation, socialization, training, technology implementation, mentoring, and evaluation. The beneficiaries were members of the Mberasmo Page Coffee Farmer Group. The results showed that the application of the coffee pulping machine increased processing capacity from 4 kg to 100 kg per production cycle, representing a 25-fold increase, while also improving the speed and efficiency of post-harvest processing. In addition, through training and mentoring, 95% of the group members were able to operate the coffee pulping machine, and 95% were able to process coffee husk waste into compost. These results demonstrate that the application of appropriate technology and waste utilization can improve the processing capacity and skills of the farmer group while supporting more efficient and sustainable coffee farming practices.Abstrak: Kelompok Tani Mberasmo Page di Desa Boangmanalu, Kabupaten Pakpak Bharat, menghadapi kendala dalam proses pengolahan pascapanen kopi yang masih dilakukan secara manual serta belum optimalnya pemanfaatan limbah kulit kopi.
