Recently, coffee has also become an important part of food safety news. as a result, consumers are concerned about the food safety problems caused by ochratoxin, and the competent authorities have also stepped up inspection actions and sent publicity materials. As a member of the food industry, Eco-Green is happy to see the efforts of the competent authorities and the concern of consumers, but with regard to the suggestion that "coffee powder should be kept in the refrigerator" advocated by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, we believe that after considering the way consumers drink coffee every day, on the contrary, it will be self-defeating, increase more risks, and reduce the flavor of coffee, so it is necessary to propose a more appropriate way to preserve coffee beans (powder).

What exactly is ochratoxin? What is the main source of ochratoxin? Why don't you put coffee beans in the fridge? How do we choose good coffee? The eco-green factory director specially sorted out the important knowledge of ochratoxin and coffee preservation for readers!

To choose safe coffee beans, of course, we have to go back to each link of the coffee beans to examine, in order to really improve food safety, while taking into account the food flavor.

Five major links to teach you to drink coffee safely.

1. Raw bean source

The source should be transparent and traceable, and it is best to have a third-party organization to certify the production process to ensure that raw beans are free of pesticide residues and are exported in accordance with international standards for raw coffee beans.

Eco-green Fairtrade coffee beans, each coffee bag has international Fairtrade label certification, as well as the producer number, the source is clear, transparent and traceable.

two。 Processing process

The place where coffee beans are most likely to be contaminated by a lot of mold is the baking environment. Is the environment where the bean dryer is subject to good sanitary management, or is it open and vulnerable to mold pollution?

Freshly roasted coffee beans cannot be packaged in vacuum immediately because they breathe naturally, so a better packaging method is to use an one-way exhaust valve to maintain the emission of carbon dioxide from fresh coffee beans and to prevent external air from pouring into the coffee packaging.

The one-way exhaust valve can maintain the emission of carbon dioxide from fresh coffee beans and prevent external air from pouring into the coffee package.

3. Cool preservation

Use a light-proof sealed jar to store the sealed coffee beans in a cool place at home to reduce air pollution and avoid sunlight to decompose the delicious coffee flavor and speed up the oxidation of oil.

4. Fresh grinding and cooking

After the coffee bean is ground, the surface area of contact with the air is enlarged several times (depending on the grinding size), so the coffee powder absorbs water from the air, and the probability of problems is also magnified. therefore, if you drink it now, you can not only have a more coffee experience. it can also reduce the risk of pollution. If you choose a follicular earbag, you should also choose goods with nitrogen-filled packaging to reduce the risk of external air infiltration into the packaging.

5. Don't buy too much.

Common one-pound or half-pound coffee beans on the market are very suitable for ordinary consumers to buy the amount they drink within a month according to their daily usage, so that they won't have the problem of worrying about deterioration.

The preservation of food is not only a problem of deterioration, but also takes into account the preservation of flavor. If you have the problem of whether to put it in the refrigerator in order to buy too many coffee beans, in fact, the best solution to the problem is "Don't buy too much at once." not "buy a bigger refrigerator", or "buy a vacuum pump to pump vacuum".
