Extractor for bulk products
GEA Niro
This extractor consists of a number of vertical percolator columns arranged in a battery. Each column – or vessel – is in turn filled with ground coffee beans, after which water at a predefined temperature is added. This process is in principle a batch process. By means of a valve manifold, the columns are inter-connected, and thereby the extraction process becomes continuous and counter-current, which gives an excellent quality of coffee extract, where it is possible to control the yield and quality of the aroma fraction.
