Abstract

There has been some diversity of Opl1l10n regarding the sugars of coffee. Presence of sucrose iu coffee has been reported by Spencerl and by Ewell 2 • Presence of galactau, mannan and pentosans has been reported by Schultze and Maxwel13, and Hehner and Skertchley4. Baker5 found that manno-arabinose or manno-xylose formed one of the important constituents of coffee berry. However, no systematic study has been made on the changes taking place in sugars during roasting of coffee excepting the observation that sucrose is almost completely destroyed during roasting. The amount of soluble sugars extracted during brewing has also not been ascertained. The present paper describes the results obtained in a preliminary study of the total hydrolysable sugars III green and roasted coffee and their chromatographic picture
