Overview

ISO 9116:2004 - Green coffee: Guidelines on methods of specification provides guidance for describing green coffee (as defined in ISO 3509) for sale and purchase in the international coffee trade. The standard is built on commonly used contract terms and recommends procedures for sampling, packing, marking, storage and shipping to ensure consistent, transparent commercial specifications and handling of green coffee lots and consignments.

Key Topics and Requirements

The standard specifies the types of information and technical parameters that should accompany a lot or consignment:

• Identification and origin
  • Country of origin; region, state or plantation (where applicable); year of harvest or age.
• Weight and packing
  • Number of bags, average net weight per bag or net weight of the lot; guidance on suitable packing materials and bulk containers.
• Physical and quality parameters
  • Loss in mass on drying or moisture content (ISO 6673, ISO 1446)
  • Total defects and foreign matter (ISO 4149)
  • Proportion of insect-damaged beans (ISO 6667)
  • Bulk (free-flow) density (ISO 6669)
  • Bean size (ISO 4150)
  • Type of green coffee (per ISO 3509)
• Sampling and handling
  • Sampling for bags should follow ISO 4072; storage, handling and transport should follow ISO 8455.
• Marking
  • Bags and bulk containers must be legibly and indelibly marked with at least: country of origin, net mass, and the name “green coffee”.
• Contaminants
  • Annex A references pesticide residues and contaminants and advises compliance with Codex Alimentarius or applicable national regulations and contractual limits.

Applications and Who Uses It

ISO 9116:2004 is practical for stakeholders across the coffee supply chain who need standardized specifications and handling practices:

• Coffee exporters and importers preparing commercial contracts
• Commodity traders and brokers specifying lot quality
• Quality assurance and laboratory personnel performing acceptance testing
• Roasters and processors assessing incoming green coffee
• Inspectors, certifiers and customs authorities verifying shipment documentation and compliance

Benefits include clearer contract terms, consistent sampling and reporting, reduced disputes, and improved traceability and quality control in green coffee trade.

Related Standards

Key referenced standards include:

• ISO 3509 (vocabulary / green coffee definition)
• ISO 1446, ISO 6673 (moisture/water content)
• ISO 4149 (visual/olfactory examination, defects)
• ISO 4150 (size analysis)
• ISO 6667 (insect-damaged beans)
• ISO 6669 (bulk density)
• ISO 4072 (sampling) and ISO 8455 (storage and transport)

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 9116 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Food products, Subcommittee SC 15, Coffee.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 9116:1992), of which it constitutes a minor
revision.
