    Notes: Summary To explain the breakage process of food particles in human mastication, we propose a simple fragmentation model. To verify its clinical accuracy, a mechanical test with a sieving method and a natural test food (coffee) was performed on three groups of subjects. The values obtained permitted to demonstrate that the model could predict, at least qualitatively, the general trend of the experimental data, even for a very small group (two subjects). It also shows that the choice of the yielding factors used to calculate the masticatory index (MI) is relevant.

    Notes: A lot of test foods have been used during this century to evaluate the masticatory ability of human subjects. Nevertheless, none has been universally admitted. If the test food by itself is of importance, attention should also be paid to its behaviour during the chewing test procedure. Therefore, we analysed step by step coffee beans through the processing of the chewing test and a dry sieving method. The development of a compression test and a computer simulation have shown that groups of 11 coffee beans give satisfactory results and deserve to be used in mastication studies.
