METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING COFFEE EXTRACT AND CONDENSED COFFEE EXTRACT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for manufacturing a coffee extract having a mellow flavor and taste of roasted coffee beans and a condensed coffee extract as the condensed product thereof; namely a unique method for manufacturing a coffee extract having a mellow coffee aroma characteristic to freshly-ground roasted coffee beans, which can be added to a processed coffee product so as to impart a flavor and taste equivalent to that of a freshly-ground and freshly-brewed coffee; and a method for condensing the coffee extract.SOLUTION: A coffee extract can be obtained through the following manufacturing steps: (1) performing a low-temperature extraction of roasted coffee beans in the temperature range of 0 to 30°C for obtaining a low-temperature extract; (2) performing steam distillation extraction of the extraction residue in the step (1) for obtaining a steam distillation extract; and (3) mixing the low-temperature extract and the steam distillation extract obtained in the steps (1) to (2) for obtaining a coffee extract.
