I have the chance to acquire some green coffea arabica beans and I am looking for suggestions and pointers for a low-effort (but successful!) guide to germinating them.

Getting them to terminate isn't the probable. Keeping them alive after that is 🤣

What condition are they in? Fresh picked and green, or picked, processed, and been sitting somewhere for years green?

If they are still hydrated enough, just plop them in a start container of soil and put somewhere sunny and warm with a cover to keep moisture in.

If dried, you're probably going to to have to soak them in water for 12-24h, then into some soil and see if they sprout.
