The polysaccharides present in coffee infusions are known to contribute to the organoleptic characteristics of the drink, such as the creamy sensation perceived in the mouth known as body, the release of aroma substances, and the stability of espresso coffee foam. To increase the knowledge about the origin, composition, and structure of the polysaccharide fraction, the high molecular weight material (HMWM) was extracted with hot water from two green and roasted ground arabica coffees: Costa Rica (wet processed) and Brazil (dry processed). The polysaccharides present in the green coffees HMWM were arabinogalactans (62%), galactomannans (24%), and glucans, and those found in roasted coffees were galactomannans (69%) and arabinogalactans (28%). The polysaccharides of the HMWM of the roasted coffees were less branched than those of the green coffees. The major green coffee proteins had molecular weights of 58 and 38 kDa, and the 58 kDa protein had two subunits, of 38 and 20 kDa, possibly linked by disulfide bonds. The protein fraction obtained from roasted coffees had only a defined band with less than or equal to 14 kDa and a diffuse band with >200 kDa. The majority of the galactomannans were precipitated with solutions of 50% ethanol, and the size-exclusion chromatography of the roasted fractions showed coelution of polysaccharides, proteins, phenolics, and brown compounds. The use of strong hydrogen and hydrophobic dissociation conditions allowed us to conclude that the phenolics and brown compounds were linked by covalent bonds to the polymeric material.
