This technology describes a preservative composition that combines additional ingredients with tocopherol to inhibit changes in soluble solids, reducing sugars, pH, and total phenol content in raw or roasted coffee beans and spent coffee grounds.
Existing organic acid and chemically synthesized preservatives had limited preservation effects and posed potential health risks to humans.
To address this, the technology combines tocopherol with ingredients such as propyl gallate, butyl gallate, and ascorbic acid, making it safer than synthetic preservatives while enhancing coffee preservation.
