This study reviews the toughening and plasticization effects of water on coffee beans in terms of texture modifications and water status and mobility, investigated by the joint use of sorption isotherms, DSC, LF-NMR and integrates the results of the dielectric properties assessment currently ongoing on green and roasted coffee beans. This multi-analytical approach is aimed to a better understand the role of water status in the determination of the toughening and plasticization effect.
