| Summary: | The data presented here are related to the research paper entitled “Structural features of spent coffee grounds water-soluble polysaccharides: towards tailor-made microwave assisted extractions” [1]. Microwave assisted extraction conditions were applied to spent coffee grounds for recovery of polysaccharides, namely arabinogalactans and galactomannans. Following an experimental design testing temperature, time, and alkali conditions as influence factors during microwave assisted extraction, this article reports the response data for the total extracted mass, sugars yield (including arabinogalactans and galactomannans total content, and mass ratio), and structural features (including degree of polymerization and degree of branching) for each set of operating conditions. In addition, it provides gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) chromatograms (and respective GC–MS spectra) of arabinogalactan and galactomannan mixtures with different structural features corresponding to representative microwave treatment conditions. Keywords: Coffee residue, Arabinogalactans, Galactomannans, Polysaccharides, Methylation analysis, Microwave assisted extraction
