A method and a system for recovering aroma compounds from a coffee extract is provided. The coffee extract and a steam flow is provided to a two-fluid nozzle, to generate a spray of coffee extract in steam, which spray is separated to provide an aroma rich gas and stripped coffee extract.

The present invention relates to coffee beverage compositions comprising soluble coffee solids and particles of roast coffee beans and with reduced formation of scum and a low content diterpenes. The invention further relates to methods of producing such coffee beverage compositions by removal of oil from a slurry of particles of roast coffee beans.

Disclosed is a process for the production of aromatized soluble coffee particles. The process comprises the incubation of an aroma donor, such as a roasted coffee, with a acceptor, such as a refined coffee oil. The acceptor can be added prior or after incubation to the soluble coffee particles. The disclosure of the present technology also pertains to a process for the preparation of an instant coffee product comprising aromatized soluble coffee particles. Thereby an odor-acceptable edible oil is subjected to aroma transfer from roast coffee beans, either before or after being applied on soluble coffee particles. The aroma transfer being conducted for an incubation time of at least one day, and the amount of the aromatized oil in the instant coffee is 0.8 wt. % to 4.5 wt. %.

The invention relates to the film products and methods of their preparation that demonstrate a non-self-aggregating uniform heterogeneity. Desirably, the films disintegrate in water and may be formed by a controlled drying process, or other process that maintains the required uniformity of the film. The films contain a polymer component, which includes polyethylene oxide optionally blended with hydrophilic cellulosic polymers. Desirably, the films also contain a pharmaceutical and/or cosmetic active agent with no more than a 10% variance of the active agent pharmaceutical and/or cosmetic active agent per unit area of the film. The invention further relates to edible multi-layer films that dissolve in water. In particular, the edible multi-layer films have a first water-soluble film layer and one or more additional water-soluble film layers in at least partial face-to-face engagement with the first film layer.

To prepare a mineral supplementing agent capable of commonly used for a seasoning liquid, a supplement, a cosmetic, an oral cavity washing liquid, a plant growth promoting agent and the like, by using common materials and a common preparation method.

A method of preparing a mineral supplementing agent capable of being administered to a human body or a plant is provided. The method includes a first charging step, a second charging step, a third charging step, a fourth charging step, and an extraction step. The first charging step charges a vessel with part of a prescribed amount of vinegar. The second charging step charges the vessel, which has been charged with the vinegar, with at least one of garlic, instant coffee, vinegar, and a fruit. The third charging step charges the vessel, which has been subjected to the second charging step, with at least one of a particulate grain hull, a charred product thereof, and a calcined ash thereof, and mixing the contents of the vessel. The fourth charging step adds the rest of the prescribed amount of vinegar to the vessel which has been subjected to the third charging step, while stirring the contents of the vessel concurrently with the addition. The extraction step separates a liquid component and a solid component in the vessel, after the fourth charging step, and extracts the separated liquid component as a mineral solution.
