Abstract
Pattern recognition procedures have been applied to samples of roasted coffee. Some of them are torrefacto samples, that is coffee roasted w ith addition of sugar. Principal component analysis, cluster analysis, linear discriminant analysis, soft independent modelling of class ana logies, and Spearman correlation studies have been carried out. Caffei ne, aqueous extract, amino acids, polyphenols, 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfur al, potassium, sodium, calcium, iron, manganese and magnesium have bee n used as chemical descriptors.
