<![CDATA[ABSTRACT This research was aim to determine the effect of the addition of sugar and fermentation time on the quality of the Ferbeet beverage. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with two factors: fermentation time (L): (2 days, 4 days, 6 days, and 8 days) and sugar concentration (P): (10%, 15%, 20 %, and 25%). Parameters measured were total soluble solid (TSS), pH, alcohol content, organoleptic of color, flavor and taste. The results showed that the addition of sugar had highly significant effect on total soluble solids and alcohol concentration, had significant effect from organoleptic taste, had no significant effect on pH, color and aroma. The fermentation timehad highly significant effect on total soluble solids, pH, alcohol content, the value of organoleptic aroma and flavor, and had no significant effect on color. Interaction of sugar addition and fermentation time had significant effect on total dissolved solids and alcohol concentration, had nosignificant effect on pH and organoleptic of color, aroma, and taste. Keywords: addition of sugar, fermentation time, Ferbeet beverage. ABSTRAK Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penambahan gula pasir dan lama fermentasi terhadap mutu minuman Ferbeet. Penelitian ini mengunakan rancangan acak lengkap (RAL) dengan dua faktor: yaitu lama fermentasi (L): (2 hari, 4 hari, 6 hari, dan 8 hari) dan konsentrasi gula pasir (P): (10%, 15%, 20%, dan 25%). Parameter yang diamati adalah total padatan terlarut (TSS), pH, kadar alkohol, uji organoleptik warna, uji organoleptik aroma dan rasa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan gula pasir memberikan pengaruh berbeda sangat nyata terhadap total padatan terlarut dan kadar alkohol, berbeda nyata terhadap nilai uji organoleptik rasa, berbeda tidak nyata terhadap pH, nilai uji organoleptik warna dan aroma. Lama fermentasi memberikan pengaruh berbeda sangat nyata terhadap total padatan terlarut, pH, kadar alkohol, nilai uji organoleptik aroma dan rasa, dan berbeda tidak nyata terhadap nilai uji organoleptik warna. Interaksi penambahan gula pasir dan lama fermentasi memberikan pengaruh berbeda nyata terhadap total padatan terlarut dan kadar alkohol, berbeda tidak nyata terhadap pH dan nilai organoleptik warna, aroma, dan rasa. Kata Kunci: penambahan gula pasir, lama fermentasi, minuman Ferbeet]]>
