Item Initial roasting temperature effect on thermal behaviour and characteristic of liberica coffee(Editora UFLA, 2019-10) Heriyanti; Panggabean, Yulia; Pangestu, Enggar Tyas; Asyhar, Rayandra; SutrisnoThe roasting process has brought about some changes in transition phases, in chemical characteristics, and microstructures of minerals in the Liberica coffee beans. Two initial roasting temperature variations were carried out to study the thermal behavior and characteristic of Liberica coffee, namely 200 °C and 230 °C. The thermal behaviour of phase changes of the Liberica green and ground coffee after the roasting process has been identified by using Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). Chemical functional groups and molecular structures have been well-analyzed by using Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS), Scanning Electron Microscope with Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (SEM/EDX) and X-Ray Powder Diffractions (XRD) for the green and roasted Liberica coffee. The DSC spectra indicated a high decomposition process that occurred during thermal treatment with crystallization and melting temperature around 120 °C and 325 °C for both roasting initial temperature variations, respectively. The FTIR and LC-MS are able to identify the chemical change in both the green and the roasted coffee. The dominant compounds found in the roasted Liberica coffee are caffeine, trigonelline, nicotinic acid, and dehydrocafestol. The XRD spectrum indicates that there is an amorphous phase for the green coffee and a sucrose crystal phase for the roasted coffee within the activity in 2θ = 20.3° and 21.1°.Item Quality of specialty natural coffee stored in different packages in Brazil and abroad(Editora UFLA, 2019-10) Borém, Flavio Meira; Andrade, Fabrício Teixeira; Santos, Cláudia Mendes dos; Alves, Ana Paula de Carvalho; Matias, Gabriel Carvalho; Teixeira, Daniela Edel; Ossani, Paulo César; Cirillo, Marcelo ÂngeloA challenge in the packaging and export of specialty coffees is to avoid green coffee bean storage and transport conditions that negatively affect the sensory quality of the roasted beans. The present study evaluated green beans of specialty coffees in eight types of packaging stored in a warehouse in the municipality of Poços de Caldas, Minas Gerais State, Brazil, for 18 months (Brazilian phase). This coffees were also subjected to sea transport and subsequent storage at a specialty coffee import company (export phase) in the United States, where it remained stored for 14 months. Physical, chemical, and sensory analyses of the beans were performed in the Brazilian phase and export phase. Green coffee beans stored in high-barrier packages had the best conserved quality. Packages with little or no barrier were not adequate for packaging or exporting specialty coffees. Beans in high-barrier packaging maintained their quality for long periods, which are therefore recommended for specialty coffee storage and export.
