Abstract

A process for reducing the acidity of a coffee extract is described in which the coffee extract undergoes electrodialysis. The non-cathodic extract is collected, contacted with subdivided chitosan and, after removal of the chitosan, is mixed with at least a part of cathodic extract to provide a deacidified coffee extract.
