Systems and methods for the preparation of tablets of botanical extracts including tea
The present invention includes a method for creating a portable and quickly dissolving tea or other tea-like botanical tablet that can be used to prepare a flavorful, visually appealing, and clear cup of tea. The novel process may include the steps of: (1) extraction/infusion, (2) clarification, (3) concentrate preparation, (4) degassing the concentrate, and (5) chunkification. A spinning cone column may be used during the extraction/infusion step to preserve the aromatics and nutrients from the tea leaves, leading to better taste and improved retention of compounds thought to be beneficial to human health. A centrifuge may be used to remove suspended solids during the clarification step and a pressure chamber or sonication device may be used during the degassing step. Chunkification may involve the freezing of the concentrate followed by the removal of water from the concentrate to create a solid tablet of easily portable shape and size. The tea tablet quickly dissolves when added to hot or warm water, and it dissolves in cold water with some additional agitation.
Soluble Tea Extract Tablet and Method of Manufacturing
A soluble tea extract tablet that consists of homogenous mixture of dried tea extract and sugar and a method of manufacturing this soluble tea extract tablet that use the following equipment and materials and the following steps: providing tea leaves, sugar, water and a container. Pouring the water into the container and putting the tea leaves and the sugar inside the container. Heating the container and evaporating the water. Removing the tea leaves and continuing the heating until obtaining a homogenous viscous mixture of tea extract and sugar. Creating pieces from the viscous mixture and drying them for forming the soluble tea extract tablets.

GRANULAR COMPOSITION COMPRISING DIETARY FIBERS DERIVED FROM GREEN TEA AND METHOD FOR PREPARING THE SAME
A granular composition containing dietary fibers derived from green tea and a method for preparing the same are provided. The granular composition may be prepared into granules, which has a suitable size and a shape to eat, using dietary fiber-containing processed green tea, an oligosaccharide and a sugar alcohol as raw materials. The granular composition may also be useful in solving the problems such as dust scattering, choking, and the like due to the good flowability of the granules, and manufacturing goods because the granular composition is easy to quantify due to the good filling properties.
