Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable to efficiently concentrate the extract solution of coffee without deteriorating the flavor thereof while preventing the fouling of an ultrafiltration membrane or reverse osmosis membrane by adding the powder of roasted, ground coffee or the powder of extracted coffee grounds to the extract solution and subsequently concentrating the mixed extract solution when the coffee extract solution is concentrated with the ultrafiltration membrane or the reverse osmosis membrane. CONSTITUTION:An extract solution of coffee is mixed with the powder (preferably having an average particle size of 200-50mum) of roasted, ground coffee or the powder of extract coffee grounds in an amount of 50-0.5W/V%, preferably 20-3W/V%, based on the extract solution and subsequently concentrated with an ultrafiltration membrane or reverse osmosis membrane. The method can be applied to the concentration of the extract solution of tea wherein the powder of tea leaves or the powder of extracted tea leaf grounds is added to the extract solution.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method for concentrating coffee extract and tea extract, and more particularly to a method for concentrating coffee extract and tea extract.
7f4lli1 method for producing coffee or tea extract, characterized by using an RO membrane). In order to concentrate Ryocho α-modified coffee extract and tea extract (including extracts of green tea, black tea, Chinese tea, etc.) to produce concentrated liquid products or semi-finished products, or to spray dry or dry the i!Ila liquid. When obtaining dry solid products by freeze-drying, extracts are concentrated as much as possible before drying in order to improve drying costs and product quality.So far, methods of concentration include heating evaporation and vacuum concentration. However, these methods had the drawbacks of deterioration of quality and poor economic efficiency.In recent years, ultra-transient methods and reverse osmosis methods using semipermeable membranes have been used. Since the concentration method does not involve heating operations or reduced pressure conditions, it does not cause the loss of volatile components or decomposition of components, and is particularly advantageous for producing beverages such as coffee extract and tea extract. be.

Furthermore, the economical efficiency of concentrating the extract is also extremely good compared to vacuum evaporation methods. Therefore, the ultra-P membrane (
The use of UF membranes (UF membranes) or reverse osmosis membranes (RO membranes) is beginning to be used to concentrate liquid foods. However, there is a drawback that so-called fouling occurs in which a gel layer is formed, the permeation flux (blacks) decreases over time, and the concentration efficiency decreases. The purpose of the present invention is to prevent fouling while maintaining the advantage of being able to efficiently concentrate coffee extracts without deteriorating their quality. In the method of concentrating coffee extract or tea extract using an OF membrane or RO membrane, if it is a coffee extract, roasted and ground coffee powder or coffee extract powder is added, and the tea extract is concentrated. By adding tea leaf powder or tea leaf lees powder after extraction and concentrating it, you can make 1!% cotton without deteriorating the flavor of coffee or tea extract and preventing fouling. As in the present invention, if coffee powder or other powder is added to the extracted residue in advance and dispersed in the extract, it can be concentrated using a tJFI model or RO membrane 3. No gel-like layer is formed on the
Because so-called fouling does not occur, good concentration efficiency is maintained over a long period of time. In order to prevent this fouling, a method is known in which cellulose powder is mixed in advance into the tea extract (f'
! Publication No. 62-282548). However, according to this method, the cellulose powder adsorbs beneficial solid components in the tea extract, and in order to prevent this, after immersing the cellulose powder in the tea extract and dissolving it, 5P) On the other hand, the method of the present invention uses roasted and ground coffee powder or coffee extract powder as the coffee extract to be reduced. Therefore, preprocessing as described above is not required. In other words, since it does not adsorb beneficial solid components in the extract, it has the advantage of preventing fouling without deteriorating the quality of the extract, such as its flavor. Furthermore, if coffee or tea extract powder is used, it can be used as an a-product and is also economically efficient. The amount of the antifouling powder such as roasted and ground coffee powder or tea leaf powder used in the present invention is generally 50 to 0.5 M/V%, preferably about 20 to 3 M/V, relative to the extract.
%. Further, the particle size of the powder used is preferably such that the average particle size is 200 to 50 μm. Conventional UP membranes and RO membranes can be used in the present invention. It may have any structure such as a homogeneous membrane, an asymmetric membrane, or a composite membrane, and may be made of any material such as cellulose acetate, aromatic polyamide, polysulfone, polyolefin, or ceramic. U. Concentration of the extract by using F% and RO extraction is carried out under pressure by conventional methods. The extracts that can be extracted by the method of the present invention include coffee extracts and various tea extracts such as green tea, black tea, and Chinese tea. included.
