    Metodologia para análise simultânea de ácido nicotínico, trigonelina, ácido clorogênico e cafeína em café torrado por cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência
    (Sociedade Brasileira de Química, 2006) Alves, Sandriel Trindade; Dias, Rafael Carlos Eloy; Benassi, Marta de Toledo; Scholz, Maria Brígida dos Santos
    A reverse phase liquid chromatography method was developed for simultaneous determination of trigonelline, caffeine, nicotinic and chlorogenic (5-CQA) acids in roasted coffee. A gradient of acetic acid/acetonitrile was used as mobile phase and detection was carried out in the UV. The samples were extracted with acetonitrile/water (5:95 v/v) at 80 ºC/10 min. Good recovery (89 to 104%), repeatability and linearity were obtained. Detection limits of 0.01, 0.15, 0.04 and 0.04 mg mL-1 were observed for nicotinic acid, trigonelline, 5-CQA and caffeine. The method, applied to arabica and robusta coffees with different degrees of roasting, was efficient and fast (~35 min) and also allowed identification of cinnamic acids.

    Instant coffee with steamed PVA beans: Physical-chemical and sensory aspects
    (Editora UFLA, 2019) Reis, Tamiris Aparecida Diniz dos; Conti, Antonio José de; Barrientos, Eliseo Alexander López; Mori, André Luiz Buzzo; Benassi, Marta de Toledo
    Around 20% of Brazilian coffee production corresponds to defective beans (PVA), which decreases the quality of the coffee brews. Steam treatment has been reported as an alternative to improve the cup quality of coffee products. This research aimed to study the feasibility of using steamed Robusta PVA beans in instant coffee products. After the steam treatment (2 bar for 3 min), the Robusta PVA was dried, roasted, subjected to extraction in a pilot plant, and freeze-dried. The steamed and untreated Robusta PVA materials (raw, roasted, and instant coffees) and blends of instant Arabica coffee with PVA were characterized. The steamed Robusta PVA instant coffee presented 7.01 g caffeine and 8.74 g total chlorogenic acids in 100 g product. Instant coffee blends with 30% and 50% of steamed Robusta PVA in Arabica coffee were studied. A sensory difference between blends with steamed and untreated Robusta PVA was only perceived by the addition of 50% PVA. The blend with 50% of steamed coffee was preferred and well accepted (average grade of 7.9 on a 10-scale). The use of steamed Robusta PVA coffee (under mild steam treatment conditions, 2 bar/3 min) in instant coffee was viable, and it was obtained an instant coffee to be used in a blend with 50% of Arabica coffee with a good profile of bioactive compounds and sensory acceptance.

    Sensory profile of conilon coffee brews from the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil
    (Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária - Embrapa, 2018-09) Mori, André Luiz Buzzo; Garcia, Aline de Oliveira; Ferrão, Maria Amélia Gava; Fonseca, Aymbiré Francisco Almeida da; Ferrão, Romário Gava; Benassi, Marta de Toledo
    The objective of this work was to present a sensory description of conilon coffee (Coffea canephora) brews produced from genotypes developed for the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil. The genotypes 'Diamante ES8112', 'ES8122', and 'Centenária ES8132' were evaluated. Nine samples from three clones (genotypes) of each cultivar, from two different regions of the state, were analyzed. A panel of tasters for coffee sensory evaluation was trained to obtain a descriptive profile and to select terms. Beverages were described as showing a higher intensity of powder fragrance, characteristic aroma of coffee brew, body, characteristic flavor and aftertaste, and a lower intensity of bitterness, acidity, astringency, and defects. The terms bitterness, strong, body, astringency, and coffee aftertaste were the most relevant in the characterization of the beverages of the studied C. canephora cultivars. Acidity is the attribute with the greatest impact on the overall quality of C. canephora brew. The coffee brews of the clones of 'Diamante ES8112', 'ES8122', and 'Centenária ES8132' are classified as of traditional quality, but near the superior category.

    Composição química de cafés árabica de cultivares tradicionais e modernas
    (Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária - Embrapa, 2013-11) Kitzberger, Cíntia Sorane Good; Scholz, Maria Brígida dos Santos; Pereira, Luiz Filipe Protasio; Benassi, Marta de Toledo
    O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a influência da diversidade genética sobre a composição química de cultivares modernas e tradicionais de café arábica brasileiro. Cultivares tradicionais (Bourbon, Catuaí e Icatu) e modernas (Iapar 59, IPR 98, IPR 99 e IPR 103) foram cultivadas nas mesmas condições edafoclimáticas e submetidas a tratamentos pós‐colheita padronizados. Determinaram-se os teores de sacarose, açúcares redutores, ácidos orgânicos (quínico, málico e cítrico), compostos fenólicos totais, ácido 5‐cafeoilquínico, compostos nitrogenados (proteína, trigonelina e cafeína), lipídeos totais, cafestol e caveol. A diversidade genética confere variabilidade à composição do café e permite a discriminação entre cultivares tradicionais e modernas. As cultivares modernas apresentam maior teor de ácidos málico e 5‐cafeoilquínico, lipídeos totais, caveol e trigonelina. Os parâmetros caveol e a relação caveol/ cafestol são propostos como discriminadores entre cultivares modernas e tradicionais, uma vez que a introgressão de genes de Coffea canephora aumenta os teores de caveol e os valores da relação caveol/cafestol.

    Discrimination of coffee species using kahweol and cafestol: effects of roasting and of defects
    (Editora UFLA, 2010-01) Campanha, Fernanda Gonçalves; Dias, Rafael Carlos Eloy; Benassi, Marta de Toledo
    The two most commercialized coffee species worldwide are: Coffea arabica L. (arabica) and Coffea canephora Pierre ex A. Froehner (robusta). Since these coffees differ in their commercial value and acceptability, adulteration and mislabeling are major concerns. The diterpenes kahweol and cafestol are considered potential indicators of conilon coffee addition, as they are present in different contents in the species. The degree of roasting and the presence of defective beans may affect the theor of several coffee constituents. The aim of this work was to evaluate the possibility of discriminating the coffee species arabica and robusta through their kahweol and cafestol contents. Samples of arabica, robusta, and of their blends, with different amounts of defects and degrees of roasting (light, medium and dark) were studied. After direct saponification and extraction with terc-butyl methyl ether, the samples were analyzed by reverse-phase HPLC with UV detection. The kahweol content varied between 661 and 923 mg/100 g in the arabica coffee, and its presence was not observed in the conilon. Cafestol ranged from 360 to 478 mg in arabica, and from 163 to 275 mg/100 g in conilon coffee. The addition of conilon coffee reduced diterpene contents, but this effect varied according to the amount of defects and roasting degrees. A higher intensity roast did not affect diterpene degradation. No differences in the kahweol and cafestol levels, comparing defective or regular beans, were observed. In the analysis of coffee samples with different degrees of roasting and defects, the parameters kahweol and cafestol showed potential for discriminating between the species.
