They're Untapped Yield.

The average coffee process only extracts about 15-20% of a bean’s mass into the cup. The rest is typically discarded as spent grounds, even though it still holds flavor and extractable yield, usually 20-30%. Flavourtech’s Rotating Disc Column (RDC) is built to capture that value instead of throwing it away.

How it works: spent coffee grounds are milled into a cold-water slurry, then passed through Flavourtech’s Rotating Disc Column 鈥 the grounds are heated to the desired temperature, and a continuous hydrolysis step is completed in 20 minutes. The solids are then separated from the extract and it is clarified to the required level. Based on precise temperature control and hold time, RDC coffee extract creates high yields without the typical intense acidity of soluble coffee. Customers can choose a process temperature which balances yield and flavor depending on the demands of the final product. The extract can also be concentrated to almost any level with their Centritherm庐 evaporator technology.

The result: upcycled coffee extract that boosts Brix, replaces soluble coffee,
and lowers costs – all without compromising quality.

Spent coffee grounds process

Why this approach stands out:听

  • Recovers yield otherwise lost 鈥 Flavourtech’s RDC can uniquely be used to recover yield from spent coffee grounds, instead of sending that material to waste.
  • Preserves real flavor 鈥 the RDC’s controlled temperature and residence time avoids high acidity, off-flavors and thermal degradation common in conventional high-heat processing.
  • Fully automated and continuous 鈥 the RDC鈥檚 design keeps throughput consistent and operationally efficient at an industrial scale.

  • Sustainability built in 鈥 less spent material going to landfill, more usable yield and soluble solids coming out of the same raw material stream.

    A smarter way to think about what happens after the cup is brewed.
