Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to systems and methods for processing biomaterials in the absence of atmospheric oxygen and products resulting from such processes. Such processing techniques may dramatically increase the shelf-life expectancies of roasted and milled biomaterial products when the roasted and milled biomaterial products are not exposed to oxygen during processing.

A system and method of manufacturing a fermented coffee formulation produces roasted and fermented coffee beans, fermented coffee juice, and a fermented coffee oil. The system includes a quantity of unprocessed coffee fruit, a quantity of primary fermentation blend, a supplemental fermentation blend, a first container, a second container, a roasting machine, and a cooling tray. The method begins by fermenting the quantity of unprocessed coffee fruit with the primary fermentation blend in the first container for coffee cherry juice. Then, a quantity of fermented coffee beans is separated from a quantity of fermented coffee fruit. In order to produce coffee beans, the quantity of fermented coffee beans is lightly roasted with the roasting machine, cooled with the cooling tray, and fermented again with the supplemental fermentation blend in the second container. A quantity of reroasted-and-refermented coffee beans is produced with the roasting machine. Fermented coffee oil is then extracted.

The present invention discloses collection confinements adapted for collection and preservation of edible substances during a minimal period of time required for conservation thereof, in particular aromatic edible substances, such as for example substances derived or associated with coffee or containing caffeine, whereby said confinements are produced in composite materials that provide barrier to the transfer of liquids and gases and present compositions that include synthetic polymers and/or bio-polymers, as well as further vegetal fibre associated with at least one sub-product from processing of the edible vegetal having affinity with the one being collected in said confinement, such as for example fibre of coffee silverscreen resulting from roasting of coffee beans, thereby providing a new economic utilization of such sub-products, and confinements presenting high bio-degradation degree once disposed thereof.

Provided is a method of producing roasted coffee beans, comprising: a first step of adding water to raw material roasted coffee beans, followed by heating of the resultant; and a second step of subjecting the raw material roasted coffee beans after the first step to supercritical carbon dioxide extraction.
