Bancha is a popular type of green tea in Japan, rich in tea polyphenols (TPs) and has a more astringent aroma with a less aromatic and strong character that complements functional foods. The blanching process is used to extract TPs and remove unwanted microorganisms, as well as inhibit phenolic oxidation. This study proposed a green tea blanching process followed by spray drying the extracts with maltodextrin. Furthermore, it is focused on maximizing the major chemical components of green tea (i.e., catechins, caffeine, and phenolic contents) based on powder particle size obtained through Multiple Response Surface Methodology optimizations. The results show that the proposed model accurately predicts leached-spray dried green tea's total catechin and caffeine content, with a coefficient of 0.9475 and 0.8692, respectively. This process yielded composite desirability of 0.9751, while individual desirability yielded excellent results of 1.0000, 0.9188, 1.0000, and 0.9839 for catechin, caffeine, phenol content, and powder. The settings appear to yield functional results for entire responses. Due to the concerns in tropical skin nutrition applications, smaller particle size green tea can promote better adsorption than larger sizes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
