parchment skin

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee_production

After the drying process (in the sun and/or through machines), the ***parchment skin*** or pergamino is thoroughly dry and crumbly, and easily removed in the Hulling process. Coffee occasionally is sold and shipped in parchment or en pergamino, but most often a machine called a huller is used to crunch off the parchment skin before the beans are shipped
