## Description

This MCP server provides a predictive modeling engine to simulate the biochemical stages of cocoa bean fermentation. It tracks the transition between microbial phases--Yeast, Lactic Acid Bacteria, and Acetic Acid Bacteria--to predict temperature profiles and pH progression. Use `simulate_fermentation_profile` to model the environment, `calculate_fermentation_metrics` to evaluate fermentation maturity and flavor precursors, and `optimize_operational_schedule` to determine the ideal turning schedule for specific flavor targets like MILD, ROBUST, or ACIDIC.

## Tools

### optimize_operational_schedule
Recommends the best timing for manual interventions to reach a specific flavor target

### simulate_fermentation_profile
Provides a continuous temporal view of the biochemical environment during the fermentation process

### calculate_fermentation_metrics
Evaluates the quality and completeness of a completed fermentation based on a profile

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Simulate a fermentation for 500kg of beans in a 1.5m pile at 25C starting at pH 5.0 for 7 days.
```

**Response:** 
```
The simulation shows a transition from YEAST to LAB activity on day 2, with temperature peaking at 38°C on day 5 due to AAB activity.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the best schedule to get a ROBUST flavor profile for 1000kg of beans?
```

**Response:** 
```
To achieve a ROBUST profile, the recommended duration is 6 days, with turning scheduled on days 2 and 4 to facilitate the AAB phase.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Evaluate this fermentation profile: [{"day": 1, "temperature": 28, "ph": 5.0, "microbialActivity": "YEAST"}, {"day": 3, "temperature": 35, "ph": 4.2, "microbialActivity": "AAB"}] for a MILD target.
```

**Response:** 
```
The fermentation index is 0.65, and the status is 'Optimal' for the requested MILD profile.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How can I predict the temperature during fermentation?**
You can use the `simulate_fermentation_profile` tool to generate a time series of temperature, pH, and microbial activity based on your bean quantity and pile depth.

**How do I know if my fermentation reached the target flavor?**
Use `calculate_fermentation_metrics` with your simulation profile to receive a fermentation index and a list of expected flavor precursors.

**Can this tool help with manual bean turning?**
Yes, `optimize_operational_schedule` provides a specific turning schedule to manage oxygen levels and heat, ensuring the target flavor profile is met.
