Identification & Functionality

Ingredient Origin
Food Ingredients Functions
Ingredients
  • Kaffibre is ideal for products targeting conscious consumers.  
  • It is made through a non-chemical lipid separation followed by a sterilization and a milling process. Kaffibre can be labeled on ingredient lists as ‘defatted coffea arabica sp. seed powder’, a product the consumer is well familiarized with, making Kaffibre attractive to manufacturers aiming for clean labels.
  • With Kaffibre it is possible to reduce the total amount of ingredients. Kaffibre prolongs shelf-life, increases fiber and protein content while supporting a reducsed sodium and calorie formulation.

Finland

Features & Benefits

Features & Benefits
  • Kaffibre is a sustainable highly nutritious fiber that can help manufactures achieve EFSA health claims, increase the fiber content, extend product shelf-life, remove the need for colorants, reduce calorie and sugar content and help manufacturers meet the consumer demand for nutritious, sustainable and natural foods.
  • This natural, non-GMO, clean-label fiber is upcycled from coffee grounds that would have otherwise been disposed as waste. It is consciously sourced from trusted commercial partners in Finland and Denmark.
  • It is vegan-friendly and in accordance to EFSA standards a source of calcium, potassium, and phosphorus and high in magnesium and fiber.
  • When brewing a cup of coffee, less than 1% of coffee’s health-promoting compounds end up in your cup, while the 99% left remains intact in the spent coffee grounds.  
  • Kaffe Bueno upcycles coffee by-products using environmentally-friendly technologies which use low temperatures and high-pressure cycles, without no harsh chemicals.  
  • The result is Kaffibre:  a gluten-free defatted fiber ritch insoluble fibers, proteins and minerals.
Functional Qualities
  • Kaffibre delays microbial spoilage in baked goods (fx. rye bread and cakes)
  • Kaffibre delays staling of the bread and maintains freshness for longer
  • Eliminates the need to use caramel colors, such as E150d, in bakery formulations like rye bread, for example
Proteins / AAs
  • Kaffibre has a minimum concentration of 15% protein containing 8/9 EAAs and have a high percentage of branched-chained amino acids (BCAAs) – leucine, isoleucine and valine. BCAAs have an anabolic effect on protein metabolism on the resting body [4] and can enhance exercise performance [5].
  • Leucine is the BCAA with the highest ability to induce muscle protein synthesis. Kaffibre provides 2.49mg/100g.
  • Isoleucine has an intermediate ability to induce muscle protein synthesis, plus, it significantly increases glucose uptake by muscle cells during exercise. Thus, implying the ability to enhance performance. Kaffibre provides 0.94mg/100g.
  • Valine induces muscle protein synthesis. Moreover, it decreases appetite. Kaffibre provides 1.69mg/100g.
  • *Kaffibre helps reach a complete amino acid profile in food products.

  • Spillage : Sweep and dispose as biowaste.
Gut Health & Obesity
  • SCFAs, byproduct of colonic fermentation of Kaffibre, is associated with the prevention of inflammatory bowel disease and colon cancer. [1]
  • The consumption of Kaffibre has displayed inhibitory effects on α-glucosidase activity. Inhibition of α-glucosidase activity is inversely associated with T2D. [2]
  • Kaffibre modulates satiety, biscuits containing an equivalent of Kaffibre were more filling than the control [3]. Use in weight loss products.
  • Kaffibre can help reduce the overall calorie and sugar content by partly replacement of flours.
  • High in magnesium - reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
  • Source of potassium – maintenance of normal blood pressure.
  • Source of calcium and phosphorus.
