15、his International Standard, a temperature of70 C and an absolute pressure of5000Pa are used, since higher temperatures may cause decomposition of carbohydrates normally present in instant coffee, resulting in the formation of water as a reaction product. The drying period of16h has been chosen becau
16、se tests on instant coffees representative of those on the market demonstrated that no further loss in mass occurred when the drying period was extended. 1 Scope and field of application This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of the loss in mass at70 C, under reduced pr
17、essure, of instant coffee. It is applicable to all types of instant coffee, as defined in ISO3509. It does not apply to liquid coffee extracts. 2 References ISO 3509, Coffee and its products Vocabulary.

19、ry apparatus, and in particular : 5.1 Isothermal vacuum oven, electrically heated and adjustable so that the temperature of the shelves can be controlled at70 1 C. 5.2 Oven, capable of being controlled at103 2 C. 5.3 Vacuum pump, capable of reducing the pressure in the oven (5.1) to5000 100Pa 2) . 5
20、.4 Dish, flat-bottomed, with a closely fitting lid, resistant to attack under the conditions of the test, made, for example, of stainless steel or glass, of diameter approximately50mm and of height30mm. 5.5 Air drying apparatus, consisting of two washing bottles made of glass, filled with glycerol,
21、to form a bubble train, and two drying towers made of glass containing a desiccant. The bubble train and the drying system are connected in series with the vacuum oven (5.1), the drying towers being between the oven and the bubble train. 5.6 Desiccator, containing an efficient desiccant, for example
22、 phosphorus(V) oxide or freshly dried silica gel. 5.7 Analytical balance 6 Sampling See ISO 6670. It is important to proceed as rapidly as possible when samples are exposed to the atmosphere, in order to prevent any pick up or loss of moisture according to the humidity of the air. 7 Procedure 7.1 Pr
23、eparation of the dish Dry the dish (5.4) and its lid for1h in the oven (5.2), controlled at103 2 C. Remove the dish and its lid from the oven and allow them to cool to room temperature in the desiccator(5.6) for about30min. Weigh the dish and lid to the nearest0,1mg. 7.2 Test portion Place a test po
24、rtion of approximately3g into the prepared dish (7.1) and spread it uniformly over the bottom of the dish. Cover the dish with its lid and weigh the whole to the nearest0,1mg. NOTEIf performing a series of tests, prepare dishes as described in7.1, and place the covered and weighed dishes in the desi
25、ccator in order to avoid any pick up or loss of moisture. 7.3 Determination Place the dish containing the test portion, with the lid removed but alongside the dish, in the oven (5.1). Set the oven at70 1 C and reduce the pressure slowly (during at least2min), using the vacuum pump (5.3), to5000 100P

Dry for16 0,5h, maintaining the current of dry a
27、ir. At the end of the drying period, allow air to enter the oven slowly (for2 to3min) in order to avoid any air turbulence that may carry away part of the product from the dish. Fit the lid on the dish and place it in the desiccator(5.6). Allow to cool to room temperature for at least25min, and weig
28、h to the nearest0,1mg. 7.4 Number of determinations Carry out two determinations on the same test sample. 8 Expression of results The loss in mass at70 C under reduced pressure, expressed as a percentage by mass, is equal to where Take as the result the arithmetic mean of the two determinations (see
29、7.4). Express the result to the second decimal place. 9 Precision An inter-laboratory test, carried out at the international level, in which14laboratories, each performing two replicates, participated, gave the statistical information (evaluated in accordance with ISO5725 3) ) summarized in the foll

It shall also mention any operating details not specified in this International Standard, or regarded as optional, as well as any circumstances that may have influenced the result. The test report s
