Abstract: A liquid applicator for dispensing a chemical in dilute aqueous form. The applicator comprises a conduit adapted at one end for connection with a water source and at another end for the discharge of a chemical in dilute aqueous form. Two containers are connected with the conduit one adapted to contain a concentrated liquid chemical, the other adapted to contain the chemical premixed with water. The containers are connected with the conduit in series with a two stage aspirator so that concentrated chemical from the first container is mixed with water and passed into the second container and the mixture is then further diluted and discharged from the applicator.

Abstract: Roast and ground coffee in the form of high-sheen flakes and having improved extractability is disclosed. A process for preparing flaked roast and ground coffee of high sheen and improved extractability by passing roast and ground coffee through a roll mill operating at differential speeds and temperatures is also disclosed. The process comprises: passing roast and ground coffee through a roll mill wherein a first roll has a peripheral surface speed of 30 ft./min. to 850 ft./min. and a surface temperature of from 0.degree. to 140.degree. F and a second roll has a peripheral surface speed corresponding to from 2 to 8 times that of the first roll and a surface temperature of from 150.degree. to 300.degree. F.; and removing from said roll mill roast and ground flakes of high sheen and extractability.

Abstract: An aromatized instant coffee comprising the combination of aroma-enriched carrier and instant coffee. The product has an aroma intensity of at least 70,000 gas chromatograph counts, a pore factor of at least 0.9, and a retention factor of at least 0.80. Also part of the invention are preferred methods of applying aroma-enriched carrier to coffee products whose roast and ground coffee aroma is desired to be increased. An especially preferred method comprises adding aroma frost-enriched coffee oil in a dropwise addition manner to the coffee product. In a most preferred embodiment, dropwise addition is accomplished by injection, preferably by a syringe member, which is extended from the open end of a coffee container to near the bottom of the container and while the syringe is being pulled upward out of said container a predetermined amount of aroma-enriched coffee oil is injected into the product.
