Abstract

The aim of this research was to determine microbiology and consumer acceptance anal- ysis of cook-chill food during storage in chiller.

The hedonic tes to determine consumer preference and descriptive method used to result microbiology test and consumer acceptance. The storage time in chillerconsisting sixth level i.e CF0 (Fresh), CF1 (one day in chiller), CF2 (two days in chiller), CF3 (three days in chiller), CF4 (four days in chiller), and CF5 (five days in chiller). The result of microbiology test incuding TPC, Enterobacter, and Escherichia coli during storage in chiller still conform the standart set by Aerofood ACS Surabaya. Consumer preferences indicated that there was significant differencesin the atribut of colour, aroma, texture, and taste based on storage time. For the storage up to three days in chiller, it is finely acceptable for consumers.
