    Abstract: A method designed to clarify the coffee oil contained in coffee grounds or in whole and/or damaged coffee beans. Said objective is achieved by way of a method that starts with inoculation of the coffee grounds or coffee beans with macromycetes, especially with white rot fungi, continuing with an incubation step that allows complete population of the coffee grounds or coffee beans by the fungal mycelium to be achieved, and finishing with steps of drying and extracting the coffee oil. The method disclosed allows colourless or pale yellow coffee oil to be produced, favouring the use thereof in cosmetic and food products, amongst others.
