Special features
Due to the special manufacturing process, this instant coffee is gluten-free. First, the individual ingredients are partially malted, roasted, coarsely ground, and mixed. Then, the roasted and crushed ingredients are brewed, creating a strong coffee extract. The powder, including the prolamins and glutelins (which together form gluten) responsible for intolerance, are not water-soluble and remain in the filter. Thus, the grain coffee is already gluten-free at this stage. In the next processing step, the still liquid extract is instantized, meaning it is converted into a fine powder form by spray drying, which is then filled. To ensure that no gluten or gluten residues are present in the instant products, Naturata regularly conducts analyses – the gluten content is always below the detection limit.

Manufacturing
Naturata grain coffee has been produced since its inception
with great care in a small Swiss
family business with a long history.

Before roasting, the chicory roots, acorns, and figs are chopped and dried, and the grains are malted for 1-3 days. During malting, the grain, rye, and barley, are soaked and allowed to germinate. Afterwards, all components are gently roasted individually. The roaster's experience plays a crucial role here: it must not be roasted for too long or too short. Each individual ingredient is roasted for the necessary duration to achieve a harmonious composition in the end.

Then the roasted material is coarsely ground, and extraction takes place: The ingredients are very gently flushed with hot water using the counter-current principle. Essentially, a grain coffee is prepared, which is then thickened. The resulting brown coffee concentrate with a dry matter content of 25% is sprayed as a fine mist in tall spray towers. The droplets fall through a hot air stream, which removes the liquid content. What arrives at the bottom is already the dry instant powder.
