The Europe Air-dried Food Market would witness market growth of 9.4% CAGR during the forecast period (2020-2026). The sun-drying method achieves the highest quality and flavor of coffee and is preferred by the Eco Delight Coffee method. A square meter of sun-dried beans yields 100 pounds of parchment beans. A drying machine is needed to dry the beans in the sun. Open-air tile drying patios are constructed and coffee beans are placed on the tiles to dry. As the sun drys the beans, any moisture under the beans is absorbed by the tiles, allowing the beans to dry completely. Manual or mechanical aeration, turning the beans, is necessary for homogeneous drying and to prevent fermentation which damages the beans.
Removal of moisture improves the shelf life of food by preserving its nutritional value. Changing consumer trends in the type of food consumed and the adoption of on-the-go eating habits are expected to boost demand for dried food. At present, meat, fruit & vegetables, and dairy products are the main product categories on the market. Research into the drying of other products, such as eggs, instant coffee, and fish, could open up new avenues for future market growth.
Various types of vegetable snacks made using various drying methods are becoming increasingly commercially important for the food processing industry worldwide, as they are also known as safe for human consumption.
