Provided is a novel roasting method that is effective for improving the flavor of roasted coffee beans. The present invention provides a method for producing roasted coffee beans, including a step of roasting coffee beans, wherein a ratio of lightness (lightness ratio) of the coffee beans is 0.65 or more, and a temperature increasing rate of a roasting temperature is retained at -0.15° C./second to 0.15° C./second.

The present invention discloses a method for the preparation of an extract from coffee pulp comprising mechanically extracting, filtering and concentrating fresh pulp at conditions of pressure and temperature. It further claims an extract from coffee pulp characterized by having a total percentage of sugars between 8 and 20%, a percentage of ash less than 20%, insoluble fiber between 0.01 and 1.00%, soluble fiber between 15.0 and 40.0%, moisture less than 20% and caffeine between 0.5 and 5.0%.

A method of preparing an extract can include loading extraction material into an extraction cell having a first portion and a second portion with ground coffee at a density of between 0.2 g/ml-0.4 g/ml and the ground coffee having a particle size between 200 μm to 400 μm. The method can further include introducing a flow of extraction medium through the first portion of the extraction cell. The method can include, within less than 75 seconds of introducing a portion of the flow of extraction medium into the extraction cell, withdrawing from a filter at the second portion of the extraction cell, extract that has been extracted from the extraction material by the portion of the flow of extraction medium introduced into the extraction cell. The method can include, within less than 30 minutes of introducing a portion of the flow of extraction medium into the extraction cell, withdrawing from a filter at the second portion of the extraction cell, extract that has been extracted from the extraction material by the portion of the flow of extraction medium introduced into the extraction cell.

The present invention has as its object to provide a method for producing green coffee beans that can be used to make coffee beverages with a fruity aroma.

Dining the process of producing green coffee beans, the following steps are performed: heating green coffee beans, and contacting the heated green coffee beans with an alcohol.

A brewing guide device is provided. The brewing guide device includes a communication device, a processing device, and a display device. The communication device obtains real-time weight information and real-time time information from an electronic scale. In a first brewing stage, the processing device determines whether the flow rate is higher than, equal to or lower than a first threshold according to the real-time weight information and the real-time time information to generate a first display instruction. According to the first instruction, the display device displays a first water line corresponding to the real-time weight information, a first target line corresponding to the first brewing stage, and a first display pattern corresponding to a first display block below the first target line on a display interface, wherein the level of the first water line is lower than or equal to the first target line.

A packaged coffee product with oxygen dissolved therein along with milk and/or sweeteners in the sealed packaging is provided. Preferably, the pH of the product is 4.6 or greater, preferably 5.0 or greater. The coffee product may be hot or cold brew coffee and may have other gasses such as nitrogen and/or carbon-dioxide in the sealed container. Ideally, there is oxygen in both the headspace and liquid portion of the beverage in order to inhibit C. Bot growth without requiring retort processing. Preferably, the calorie count is in the range of 0.5-9 calories per ounce.

A method for forming a dissolvable thermally reduced, solidified and dehydrated coffee is disclosed. The method may comprise the steps of freezing a liquid coffee concentrate and thermally reducing, solidifying and dehydrating the frozen liquid coffee concentrate until a hard outer crust is formed which may have a hardness greater than or equal to an interior portion of the thermally reduced, solidified and dehydrated coffee.

A closure can include a base having an opening. The base can be connected to a container such that a liquid in the container, for example a creamer, is pourable through the opening of the closure into a beverage cup. The closure can include an overcap having a plug, and the plug can seal the opening when the overcap is in a closed position relative to the base. A hinge can connect the overcap to the base and be biased to establish and maintain an angle of the overcap when the overcap moves out of the closed position. Liquid retained on the overcap during opening of the overcap can then fall directly into the beverage cup during pouring due to the angle of the overcap in the open position. Any retained liquid ingredient that falls from the overcap onto the base can be confined within a ring on the base.
