Study Notes
FNSC2001: Intro to Food Science & Technology - Coffee & Tea
- Global Beverage Market forecast: 3.5% CAGR
- 2021 Market Value: USD 1,568.39 billion
- 2028 Market Value: USD 1,991.85 billion
Beverages
- Aromatic Beverages (Coffee and Tea)
- Water
- Carbonated beverages
- Functional beverages
- Fruit/vegetable beverages
- Dairy beverages
- Alcoholic beverages
Water
- "Universal solvent"
- Transports substances (e.g., oxygen, nutrients) and removes waste
- Regulates body temperature
- Harvard Medical School suggests average daily water intake: ~15.5 cups for men and ~11.5 cups for women (healthy individuals)
- Factors influencing water needs include activity level, temperature, individual conditions, and age.
- Dehydration symptoms: dark yellow urine, dizziness/confusion/weakness, low blood pressure.
Bottled Water
- Purification methods: distillation (boiling and condensation) or deionization (using ion-exchange resins/beads)
Other Types of Drinkable Water
- Mineral Water: Naturally contains minerals (Na, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, P, etc.) e.g., spring, well, artesian water
- Sparkling Water: Naturally contains dissolved COâ‚‚ or is carbonated (soda water)
Water Quality
- Hard Water vs. Soft Water: Water contains dissolved minerals (e.g., calcium, magnesium) from natural sources.
- No universal standard for hardness. Hardness, mainly from calcium and magnesium, is often measured based on calcium carbonate levels.
- Different regions/standards exist, such as US and Canada, using ppm as the unit.
- pH of water varies geographically and with temperature (due to CO2 solubility).
Risks of Drinking Water
- Water Intoxication: Drinking large quantities of water can cause imbalance of electrolytes (Na+) leading to hyponatremia. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, headache, confusion, lethargy, muscle weakness, coma.
- Water Contamination (e.g., in developing countries): Microbial hazards (Vibrio cholerae, parasites) Chemicals (heavy metals), and radiological hazards.
Coffee
- Origin: Africa (Ethiopia), ~ 3rd century AD
- Composition: Water + Compounds extracted from coffee beans during brewing
- Species: Coffee arabica & Coffee robusta
Coffee Beans: Arabica vs. Robusta
- Climate: Mild (Arabica) vs. Warm (Robusta)
- Altitude: 600-2200M (Arabica) vs. 0-800M (Robusta)
- Other features such as leaf size, bean shape, caffeine %, and quality are tabulated for comparison.
Coffee Bean Processing
- Harvesting: Hand-picked coffee cherries
- Processing Methods: Washed, Natural (Dry/Sun-dry), Semi-washed (Wet Hulled), Honey
- Washed Coffee Beans: Cherries are sorted, pulp removed, fermented, rinsed, dried, and dehulled.
- Natural Coffee Beans: Cherries are sun-dried, raked, and turned to allow fermentation and then dehulled.
- Roasting: Develops aromas, appearance, and texture; changes physical and chemical properties
- Quality characteristics described such as roast type (light, medium, or dark), lightness, richness, body, sweetness, aroma, flavour, bitterness, and quality
- Roasting time dictates coffee classification
- Coffee Brewing: Grinding and water extraction from beans followed by brewing methods and equipment (Percolator, Vacuum (Syphon/siphon), Drip, French press, Moka, etc)
Coffee Brewing - Espresso
- Black coffee extract using high-pressure steam through ground coffee.
- Signature oily foam on top ("Crema")
- Varieties of espresso drinks (Espresso, Ristretto, Espresso macchiato, etc.)
Instant Coffee
- Dehydration: Spray Dry with Agglomeration (clumping) or Freeze Dry and pulverization (using water sublimation)
Tea
- Usually refers to the infusion of leaves cultivated from Camellia sinensis.
- Herbal teas: infusion of other plants/herbs/fruits
- ~1000 leaves needed to make 1 pound of manufactured tea
Tea Types
- Classification based on brewed liquid color (due to tea-leaf processing): White, Yellow, Green, Oolong, Black; Post-fermented teas (e.g., Pu-erh)
Tea Processing
- Procedures, like wilting, steaming, rolling, and other steps, related to producing diverse types of tea
- Details of processes for different types of tea.
Caffeine
- Naturally found in plants (tea leaves, cocoa plants, coffee, etc.).
- Present in soft drinks and energy drinks.
- Both positive and negative effects
Caffeine Decaffeination
- Methods: using dichloromethane/ethyl acetate, or compressed COâ‚‚
- Breeding/Genetic Engineering: creating low-caffeine varieties
Swiss Water Process
- Chemical-free decaffeination
