Effect of French Press Brewing on the Sensory Quality of Robusta Coffee Produced in Hainan by LIU Di, LAO Fei, DONG Wenjiang, YU Xinxin

“…Single factor experiments and response surface methodology were used jointly for optimization of four processing parameters based on consumer preference, and the correlation between consumer preference and sensory characteristics and flavor components was analyzed by quantitative sensory description, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC). The results showed that the extraction yield of coffee significantly increased with the decrease in coffee grind size, the increase in powder-to-water ratio, the increase in brewing water temperature or the prolongation of brewing time (P < 0.05). …”
