Abstract
An unexpected effect of spontaneous caffeine precipitation from roasted coffee extracts obtained by supercritical fluid extraction was discovered. The effect is observed for various sorts of coffee when extraction pressure is roughly above 40 MPa. Simple centrifugation of such extracts allows obtaining two valuable products,decaffeinated roasted coffee oil and caffeine, which can be used as functional ingredients in food and cosmetics.
