Process to prepare a liquid coffee concentrate with reduced acrylamide content by resin treatment

ActiveUS12635706B2Food ion-exchangeCoffee grinding methodsOrganic chemistryCoffea
A process for producing a liquid coffee concentrate that has a reduced acrylamide content. The process involves contacting a low aromatic aqueous coffee extract with a carbon and / or silica based resin with adsorptive function to reduce the acrylamide content of the extract, prior to combining the treated extract with a high aromatic aqueous coffee extract. In particular, the process comprises the steps of: a) providing a low aromatic aqueous coffee extract having a first acrylamide content; b) providing a high aromatic aqueous coffee extract; c) contacting the low aromatic aqueous coffee extract with a carbon and / or silica based resin with adsorptive function to provide a low aromatic aqueous coffee extract having a second acrylamide content; and d) combining the low aromatic aqueous coffee extract having a second acrylamide content and the high aromatic aqueous coffee extract to provide a liquid coffee concentrate, wherein the second acrylamide content is lower than the first acrylamide content.
