The invention relates to a process for obtaining soluble coffee with enhanced aroma, fragrance, and flavor compared to conventional soluble coffee, corresponding to the incorporation of pulverized coffee by continuous feeding during the drying operation of a coffee extract. Additionally, the invention also relates to the product obtained by said process, corresponding to instant coffee with pulverized coffee, preferably formulated with the incorporation of additives, powdered and/or also agglomerated.

A coffee cherry is harvested, preferably in a sub-ripe state, and quick-dried to provide a basis for numerous nutritional products. Such coffee cherries and portions thereof may be particularly characterized by their extremely low concentration of mycotoxins, including various aflatoxins, fumonisins, ochratoxins, and/or vomitoxin (DON, deoxynivalenol).

The present invention relates to a dried coffee powder obtainable by a process comprising membrane filtration of a low temperature extract of roasted and ground coffee beans to reduce the concentration of low molecular weight components and drying the filtered coffee extract.

A coffee milling process comprising the steps of: a) introducing particles of a roasted coffee precursor into a milling chamber; b) introducing particles of soluble coffee into the milling chamber; c) jetting a gas into the milling chamber to mobilise the particles of the roasted coffee precursor and soluble coffee; d) thereby producing a milled and blended coffee product by comminuting the particles of the roasted coffee precursor by self-collision of the particles of the roasted coffee precursor and by collision of the particles of soluble coffee with the particles of the roasted coffee precursor within the milling chamber. Processes and products incorporating milled and blended coffee products are also described.
