[0002] Coffee husks are a major byproduct of coffee production and are generally used for traditional purposes such as fertilizer and animal feed, which have low utilization value. However, coffee husks contain high levels of cellulose, total sugar, and protein. Like green coffee beans, coffee husks also contain caffeine, chlorogenic acid, and trigonelline, although in lower amounts. Therefore, the uses of coffee husks have been widely developed. They are used to make fruit wine, and in recent years, coffee husk tea has also become popular.
[0003] The traditional process of making coffee peel tea involves washing, drying, and roasting coffee peels to produce coffee peel tea.
[0004] Currently, after drying and baking, fruit peels are mostly cooled naturally. This method is not only slow but also uneven, which can lead to a situation where the outside is at storage temperature while the inside remains too hot, affecting the overall cooling efficiency and making subsequent packaging and storage impossible.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a rapid drying device for coffee peel tea preparation. Utility Model Content
