Nitrogenous compounds in coffee
These include proteins, amino acids and alkaloids. Trignolline comprise about 1% of the dry weight of green coffee but does not survive roasting, breaking into nicotinic acid, pyridine and other volatile compounds. The most abundant alkaloid is caffeine, which comprises 1 to 2 % of dry weight. Robusta beans have higher caffeine content. Apart from a very marginal sublimation caffeine survives roasting. A cup of coffee contains 30 to 180 mg of caffeine depending on the blend and mode of preparation.

Carbohydrates in coffee
Carbohydrates constitute almost half the dry weight of green coffee. Sucrose is the main oligo saccharide and manna’s and arabinogalactants are the main polysaccharides. At roasting sucrose is destroyed the polysaccharides are progressively polymerized and eventually pyrolised at dark roasting. The percentage of carbohydrates in a cup of coffee depends on the blend, the roasting level and the mode of preparation. It can reach 20% to 35% of the solid matter.
