In order to improve the quality of instant black tea, this paper studied the effect of extracting times and cooling temperature on the content of main taste compounds, liquor color difference and organoleptic quality of final product. Results show that the yield of product in the first extracting is 4~5 times higher of the second extracting. Also the liquor color, organoleptic quality and solubility in the first extracting are obviously better than those in the second extracting. Experimental data also indicate that the solubility of products ...
