FAST ROASTED COFFEE PROVIDING INCREASED BREW STRENGTH AND DARKER CUP COLOR WITH DESIRABLE BREW ACIDITY

摘要

Roast and ground or flaked coffee products which provide more brew strengthand cup color at lower levels of brews solids.These coffee products comprise darker, fast roasted coffee that ispredominantly high acidity-type coffee that provide, when brewed underappropriate conditions, a consumable coffee beverage having: (1) a brew solidslevel of from about 0.4 to about 0.6 %; (2) a TitratableAcidity of at least about 1.52; (3) a brew absorbance of at least about 1.25,provided that when the Titratable Acidity is in the range offrom about 1.52 to about 2.0, the brew absorbance is equal to or greater thanthe value defined by the equation: 1.25 + [0.625 x (2.0-TA)]where TA is the Titratable Acidity.
