Detailed Project Report (DPR) on instant coffee

INSTANT COFFEE (EIRI-1033)

Instant coffee also known as soluble coffee is the dried water extract of roasted ground coffee.  The product consists of brown colored, free flowing particles of uniform size. Most commercial products contain 100% pure "Coffee soluble solids".  Instant coffee was included in the army rations during the Civil War and has been available in various forms, for a hundred years. However, it was not until after worldwar II that instant coffee became a popular consumer item.  Its product quality is to better method of manufacture as well as trend towards the use of convenience foods. Sale of soluble coffee have levelled off since 1961 but prior to 1961 there was a five fold growth over ten years.  However, coffee has been a widely accepted societies beverage for many.  The habit of drinking coffee spread rapidly across Europe, especially coffee become known in Vienna. Later its culture spread thoroughly in several countries in South America Central America. West Indies Ceylon and Wester Africa. Instant  coffee also known as soluble coffee is made  up  of soluble  coffee  solids  and  is  completely  soluble  in  water.  Prepared by a process involving the use of percolation with water to extract the ground coffee. The solution is then dried by one of several methods: 1. In Spray Drying the extract liquid is traced through  coffee nozzles into a stream of hot air or inert gases, the  result of which is almost instantaneous drying. The dried material cobalts in a suitable chamber. 2. Vacuum drying, on a moving belt yields a dried  product  in the  form  of  flakes which are very soluble  even  in  cold water. 3. Freese drying depends on the removal  of   water   by evoporation  in a high vacuum and at very low  temperatures. The method yields a product which is closer to brewed coffee than the others, but it is expensive to produce. The larger amount of instant coffee is produced by spray drying.
