With the purpose of finding lower cost process, simple preparing processes of the raw material for instant green tea were investigated.The raw materials were made by the following three procedures.1. Usual method : Six processes, i. e., steaming, primary heating and rolling, rolling, secondary drying, final rolling, and drying were employid.2. Simplified method I : Three processes, i.e., rolling, secondary drying, final rolling were eliminated from the usual method.3. Simplified method II : Two processes, i.e., secondary drying, final rolling were eliminated from the usual method.The raw materials made by these three procedures were compared with each other in qualities, constituents, extracted amount of soluble matter, and the instant teas made from these raw materials were also tasted.In this test, no difference was found among these products.So, it was concluded that these simple procedures were suitable for making raw material of instant tea.
