Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of producing a freeze dried soluble coffee powder which produces foam when dissolved in water. The method involves partly melting the surface of a granulated frozen coffee extract and mixing it with a porous spray dried coffee powder whereby the porous spray dried powder particles stick to the surface of the granulated frozen coffee extract particles, and freeze drying the particles.
