This disclosure describes a method for coating coffee beans, the method comprising providing a water-ethanol solution comprising at least 20% ethanol by volume, mixing at least one ingredient with the solution, extracting one or more of micronutrients and organic compounds from the at least one ingredient into the solution to create an extract, roasting coffee beans at a temperature that is in a range from about 120 to about 375 degrees Celsius to form roasted coffee beans, cooling the roasted coffee beans to between 32 and 120 degrees Celsius, and applying the extract on an exterior surface of the roasted coffee beans while they are in this temperature range to form coated coffee beans, wherein a weight ratio of the extract to the coffee beans ranges from about 0.1% to about 40%, and wherein the applying comprises simultaneously spraying the extract on and stirring the roasted coffee beans.

A method for production of a cocoa powder substitute includes: drying a spent coffee ground material, previously utilized in a coffee brewing process, to a moisture content of less than 10% by mass to produce a dried spent coffee ground material; extracting oil from the dried spent coffee ground material to produce a coffee flour material characterized by a fat content of less than 5% by mass; milling the coffee flour material to an average particle size of less than 250 microns; and flavoring the coffee flour material to produce a cocoa-homologous flavor in the coffee flour material.

The present specification provides a method of preparing a mycelium complex, which includes inputting a β-glucan-containing mushroom raw material into a medium, inputting a physiologically active material-containing plant raw material into the medium, and culturing the β-glucan-containing mushroom raw material with the physiologically active material-containing plant raw material, a mycelium complex, and a method of preparing a β-glucan-containing product.
