Abstract
A method of lessening the off-flavor notes of low-grade roasted coffee is disclosed. Low-grade green coffee is contacted with a fatty material, preferably a triglyceride, for a period of time between about 15 min. and 60 min. The low-grade green coffee is subsequently separated from the fatty material. Any residual fatty material may be removed by rinsing the low-grade green coffee with acetone. The coffee is then roasted, providing a low-grade roasted coffee having lessened off-flavor notes.
