Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of adding various levels of CMC stabilizer on organoleptic properties (color, taste, aroma, texture) and consumer preference levels. The study involved 30 untrained panelists. This study was conducted using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) using 4 Treatments and 5 replications. The treatments tested were the addition of different CMC stabilizer levels R1 = 0% (w/v), R1 = 0.3% (w/v), R3 = 0.6% (w/v), R4 = 0.9% (w/v). The variables observed were the organoleptic properties of color, taste, texture, aroma and consumer preference for red dragon fruit yoghurt. The results of the study showed that the addition of various levels of CMC stabilizer had a significant effect (P<0.05) on the color, aroma, texture, and consumer preference for red dragon fruit yoghurt. The highest value was the addition of 0.9% CMC with attractive color, typical yoghurt aroma, very thick texture, and was liked by consumers. The lowest assessment of color, aroma, texture and consumer preferences was the addition of 0.3% CMC with a rather attractive color, typical yoghurt aroma, liquid texture, and somewhat liked by consumers. The conclusion of this study is that yoghurt that has good color, aroma and texture values ​​and is preferred by panelists is yoghurt added with 0.9% CMC. The addition of CMC does not affect the taste of yoghurt.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the perceptions and consumption patterns of instan chocolate powder drinks in two border cities, namely Batam City and Pontianak City, both local and imported products. The method used was a questionnaire-based survey distributed to 100 respondents in each city. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statisctics 25 software with a significance level of 5% to identifiy the factors influencing consumer perferences in choosing instant chocolate powder drink products. The results of the study indicate that respondent characteristics, such as gender, age, marital status, education level, and occupation, influence perceptions and consumption patterns among individuals in both regions. Respondents in Pontianak City tend to choose local products by considering price and the benefits offered by the product, while respondents in Batam City priotize quality and packaging. Consumption patterns in both regions are relatively low, with a frequency of once a month. Most respondents in this study chose locally produced instant chocolate powder drinks because they are more economical, of higher quality, and have a stronger brand image compared to imported products. Age, marital status, and education level influence respondents' preferences. This is evidenced by the fact that married respondents tend to consider health and economic aspects more when choosing products, while unmarried respondents are more influenced by trends and convenience. The results of this study can serve as a basis for local producers to enhance the competitiveness of local products in the domestic market, particularly in border areas with access to imported products.

Abstract

Java Ijen robusta coffee is one of the potential coffee types to be developed as a low-caffeine product for sensitive consumers. The decaffeination process aims to reduce caffeine levels without eliminating the sensory characteristics of coffee. This study aims to determine the effect of variation in extraction time using the Microwave-Assisted Solvent Extraction (MASE) method on caffeine recovery, chlorogenic acid content, and organoleptic quality of coffee drinks. The extraction process uses water solvent and microwave power of 450 watts with time variations R1 = 4 minutes, R2 = 8 minutes, R3 = 12 minutes, R4 = 16 minutes, and R5 = 20 minutes. Analysis of caffeine content was carried out using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer, while chlorogenic acid content was determined by the titration method. Organoleptic assessment included colour, acidity and aroma attributes by 25 untrained panelists using median scores. The results showed that extraction time significantly affected caffeine recovery and chlorogenic acid content. The highest caffeine recovery of 57.34% and chlorogenic acid content of 19.19% were obtained at an extraction time of 20 minutes. The most preferred colour and acidity were also found in the 20-minute treatment, while the best aroma was at 12 minutes. Increasing extraction time increased colour intensity, acidity, and caffeine and chlorogenic acid concentrations. These results demonstrate the potential of the MASE method as an efficient alternative in decaffeinating robusta coffee while maintaining sensory quality.

Abstract

Gayo Aceh Arabica coffee is famous for its quality and unique taste. However, caffeine-sensitive consumers often stay away from this coffee because excessive caffeine intake can have a detrimental effect on health. Therefore, the decaffeination process is important in producing low-caffeine coffee without reducing its distinctive taste and aroma. The research focused on assessing the influence of ultrasonic waves on the decaffeination process of Aceh Gayo arabica coffee. This study employed an experimental method that included 6 treatments (extraction time): K1 (2 minutes), K2 (4 minutes), K3 (6 minutes), K4 (8 minutes), K5 (10 minutes), and K6 (12 minutes). The variables measured in this study included caffeine regain, chlorogenic acid levels, and organoleptic test results. The collected data was analyzed using (SPSS) software version 30. This study found the best results in treatment K4 (8 minutes), which showed caffeine recovery of 56.83%, chlorogenic acid content of 12.3%, and neutral sensory evaluation (4) for color, acidity, and aroma according to panelists.

Abstract

This study aims to understand how the preferences of Muslim consumers in Cirebon toward halal-certified products are influenced by the prevailing social, cultural, and religious values within their communities. Using a socio-anthropological approach and the theory of innovation adoption, this research examines the social processes shaping halal consumption decisions and how halal products are selected not only for religious reasons but also as expressions of social identity. The research employs a qualitative method with a mini ethnographic approach, including in-depth interviews with consumers, participant observation, and documentation in both urban and rural areas of Cirebon. The key findings reveal that families, Islamic boarding schools (pesantren), and religious organizations play significant roles as agents of change in promoting the adoption of halal products. Moreover, innovation characteristics such as observability and trialability emerge as critical factors in encouraging acceptance, especially when supported by trusted community or religious figures. The novelty of this study lies in uncovering that preferences for halal products are not solely driven by individual religious consciousness, but also by social pressure and a desire to maintain collective Muslim identity in Cirebon. Academically, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of innovation adoption dynamics within religious and cultural contexts and offers a new perspective on halal certification as a symbolic marker of morality and identity. It also provides a theoretical and practical foundation for developing more culturally contextualized halal education strategies.

Abstract

Background: Ohmic heating is an alternative thermal heating that can be used in beverage product processing. The working principle of the ohmic heating method is by flowing an alternating electric current through the beverage product and causing ions to move towards electrodes with opposite charges so that the product has an even internal heat. Purpose: This study aims to analyze the influence and potential emission, advantages and challenges regarding the use of the ohmic heating method and its future applications. Method: This paper summarizes the effect of ohmic heating on beverage products during 2015-2025. This study uses variables in the form of voltage and frequency variations applied to various types of processed beverage products. In ohmic heating performance, voltage and frequency variations play a very important role in beverage processing. Results: The results show that the use of ohmic heating methods in beverage product processing has low energy consumption, even (homogeneous) heat, short time, increased product safety and quality. The ohmic heating method affects the properties of beverage products. Differences in process objectives in the use of beverage products such as boiling, cooking, pasteurization, microbiological inactivation, sterilization can also affect the level of product quality and safety so that knowledge is needed regarding the application of the right temperature, frequency, voltage and time according to the type and purpose of processed beverage products. However, the application of ohmic heating methods still faces many obstacles, such as high costs that limit its commercial use at a larger scale. Furthermore, most research is still conducted at the laboratory and pilot scale, with very little research at the factory scale. Therefore, more research is needed into large-scale ohmic heating applications to evaluate potential technical and economic challenges.

Abstract

Background: Nitrite is a compound that has the potential to pose health risks if consumed in excessive amounts, including through the formation of carcinogenic nitrosamine compounds and disruption of oxygen transport due to methemoglobin formation. The nitrite content in green vegetables is influenced by various factors, including the cultivation system and processing processes before consumption, one of which is boiling. Purpose:This study aims to determine the effect of soil and hydroponic growing media on the nitrite levels of green mustard (Brassica rapa var. parachinensis) after boiling. Method: This study used an experimental design with green mustard samples cultivated in soil and hydroponic media. The samples were boiled for 3 minutes, then the nitrite levels were analyzed using the Griess method with a UV–Vis spectrophotometer according to SNI 06-6989.9-2004. Data analysis was carried out using normality tests, homogeneity tests, and independent t-tests. Result: The results showed that the initial nitrite levels of hydroponic green mustard were higher than those of green mustard from soil media. After boiling, the nitrite content in the soil-grown mustard greens was 20.61 mg/kg with a reduction percentage of 88.91%, while in the hydroponic mustard greens it was 71.05 mg/kg with a reduction percentage of 70.71%. The results of statistical tests showed a significant difference (p < 0.05) between the two growing media. This study concluded that the type of growing media significantly affected the nitrite content of the mustard greens after boiling, where the soil media produced lower nitrite levels compared to the hydroponic media.
