Method for Manufacturing Coffee Beverage Using Filtered Extract
A method for manufacturing a coffee beverage is provided that is capable of efficiently removing precipitating components and turbid components from a highly concentrated coffee extract 1 , and that is also capable of addressing increases in the production volume of the coffee beverage without particularly large changes being made to the scale of the equipment. The coffee extract 1 obtained from an extraction process performed on ground roasted coffee beans is diluted in the method for manufacturing a coffee beverage, and the coffee extract 1 is filtered using a cross-flow filtering apparatus before dilution.
