The first step is through cleaning of defective beans ; blending of different types and sizes to ensure best falvour.

Slide 3: 

The second step is roasting through either batch or continous roasters. Roasted coffee is grinded to suitable size before extraction

Slide 4: 

The third step is extraction of ground material through a continous / batch process in a presurised vessel with hot water. To get a better yield (upto 50%) seven batteries of counter column extractor cell is used featuring extraction under closely controlled system.

Slide 5: 

The extraction coffee solution is passed through a centrifugal calrifier to separate the insoluble solids

Slide 7: 

After clarification the extracted coffee liquor is passed through the aroma recovery plant. In the plant the volatile aroma is stripped off from the coffee before it enters the evaporator.

Slide 8: 

The next step is concentration of the extract through multi-effect evaporators with TVR systems upto 50% concentration is achieved.

Slide 9: 

The coffee concentrate is converted to instant coffee powder by spray drying; drying is done under controlled conditions to protect and preserve aroma and falvour.

Slide 10: 

Spray dried powder can be converted into soluble granules in an agglomerator tower by rewert agglomeration technic.
