The objective of this study was to develop and
standardize an experimental method for the analysis of trace
volatile organic compounds in coffee. This new technique involves
headspace sampling, heart cutting, collection and concentration
of the volatiles on a porous polymer (Tenax-GC), followed
by sensory evaluation and two dimensional GC. A 0.2% Carbowax
1500 coated on 80/100 Carbopack C packed column was employed

This book presents as accurately as possible

them. The emphasis is given to demonstrate how production
practices can be adapted to local conditions: national, economical,
climatic, geological and commercial.
