Item Sensory and physicochemical evaluation of traditional powder coffee(Revista Engenharia na Agricultura, 2020-07-13) Silva, Joana Moratto; Oliveira, Isabela Yasbeck; Muller, Nathália Maris Ribeiro; Rinco, Nicolli Maria; Zia, Luisa Lemes; Dutra, Mariana Borges de LimaCoffee is one of the most important products for the Brazilian economy. Due to this fact, its sensory acceptance is extremely important for both the consumer and the producer. The objective of this study was to evaluate the acceptance of six brands of traditional roasted coffee in the southern region of Minas Gerais. The samples were evaluated by 124 consumers through the following tests: acceptance for appearance, aroma, taste, texture and overall impression, ideal for bitter taste and body and, finally, purchase intention. In addition, colorimetric and soluble solids analyses were performed. According to the results obtained, sample D had the highest frequency of positive purchase intention, while sample A had the highest frequency of negative purchase intention. Sample F had the closest ideal bitter taste and, in relation to the body of the drink, sample C was considered the closest to the ideal. Sample F presented the highest acceptance for all attributes evaluated in the acceptance test.Item An index to evaluate the acceptance of specialty coffees in consumer groups(Associação Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola, 2020) Resende, Mariana; Cirillo, Marcelo Â.; Borém, Flávio M.Numerous factors are related to the individual sensory perception of consumers, which makes it impossible to adapt a model that explains their behavior. In this context and given the scarcity of statistical indexes that evaluate preferences for specialty coffees, new statistical methods should be studied. To this end, our study aimed to create an index that measures the acceptance of specialty coffees. The index was built considering the fit of regression models as a function of principal component scores. Validation was done by significance tests, whose probabilities were obtained by bootstrapping, considering the main measures used in diagnosing outliers as weights, with application to real data from different consumer groups. The coffee varieties Acaia and Bourbon were discriminated in relation to altitude. In conclusion, the index was adequate for the analysis and characterization of specialty coffees grown at different altitudes.Item Sensorial profile, content, and antioxidant activity in coffee beverages prepared by direct contact methods(Editora UFLA, 2020) Ormaza-Zapata, Angela María; Díaz-Arango, Félix Octavio; Rojano, Benjamín AlbertoDirect content coffee preparation methods may be used as alternative ways to obtain coffee beverages with varied cup profiles. In this investigation the antioxidant metabolites, antioxidant activity, and cup profiles were determined for coffee drinks prepared using five different direct contact methods. The method that registered greatest antioxidant retention was Ibrik, followed by French press, and Toddy. Antioxidant capacity was proportional to antioxidant component retention in the preparations made. It is recommended that coffee be prepared via the Ibrik, French press, and Toddy methods for high acceptance levels, as well as for retention of bioactive components with antioxidant properties and abilities.Item Sensory Q-Grader evaluation of fermented arabica coffees by yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and lactic bacteria (Pediococcus acidilactici) cultures(Editora UFLA, 2020) Rodrigues, Sandy Dias; Coelho, Vinicius Serafim; Freitas, Valdeir Viana; Brioschi, Alessandra; Brioschi Júnior, Dério; Guarçoni, Rogério Carvalho; Pereira, Lucas Louzada; Eller, Monique Renon; Cardoso, Wilton SoaresThe objective of this study was to evaluate sensorially, by professional Q-Grader, the beverage coffee from fermentation natural and fermentation with the use of yeasts and lactic acid bacteria as starter cultures in wet coffee processing. The Arabica coffee was harvested at two different altitudes in Espírito Santo State. Both coffees went through 04 treatments: inoculated with starter cultures Saccharomyces cerevisiae (YML) or Pediococcus acidilactici CCT 1622 (LAF), natural fermentation (NF) (not inoculated) and Control, without fermentation (WF). The coffee was processed by just the wet process. After process and roasting, the sensorial analysis was performed to understand the impact of fermentation processing in the coffee quality, and was performed by 6 Q-Graders, following SCA protocol. The study evidenced that the use of natural fermentation or starter cultures during post-harvest coffee contributed to obtain a quality beverage with pleasurable sensorial characteristics, punctuated by the tasters in the overall score obtained and also by the high sensory scores in attributes such as fragrance, acidity, aftertaste and the different perceived aromas. This work demonstrates for coffee growers that fermentation technology is not intuitive but requires an understanding of the relationship of the microorganisms with the coffee and the environment. In addition to the other chemical aspects of roasting and brew coffee.Item Implications of the cut type and apex length of stem cuttings used for the production of plantlets of Conilon coffee(Editora UFLA, 2020) Verdin Filho, Abraão Carlos; Freitas, Silvio de Jesus; Comério, Marcone; Volpi, Paulo Sérgio; Colodetti, Tafarel Victor; Rodrigues, Wagner Nunes; Fonseca, Aymbiré Francisco Almeida da; Posse, Sheila Cristina Pruculi; Fontes, Alexandre Gomes; Christo, Bruno Fardim; Vieira, Luciano Junior DiasProducing plantlets of Conilon coffee within the specific recommendations and with a high level of quality is fundamental since it is capable of promoting the initial development of the crops. To identify the best protocol to prepare the stem cuttings is fundamental to the process of plantlet production of the species. In this context, this study aimed to evaluate the implications of the type of apex cutting and the length of the remaining apex of stem cuttings to produce plantlets of Conilon coffee (Coffea canephora). To this end, two trials were conducted in the Marilândia Experimental Farm (Instituto Capixaba de Pesquisa, Assistência Técnica e Extensão Rural, Marilândia-ES). The first trial evaluated the types of apex cutting (straight or bevel cut), and the second trial studied the different lengths of the remaining apex (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 cm). Characteristics of the vegetative growth and photosynthetic traits of the plantlets of Conilon coffee were evaluated after 120 days of cultivation in a nursery. The biomass accumulation of the plantlets of Conilon coffee produced by stem cutting may be favored by the use of bevel cut on the apex. The length of the remaining apex does not seem to have a expressive effect over the quality or growth of the plantlets, being only possible to observe effects for leaf area and biomass accumulation.Item The influence of peeling and type of drying on chemical and sensorial analysis of organic coffee(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos, 2014-04) Fernandes, Maria de Fátima Caixeta; Silva, Adriano Bortolotti da; Oliveira, Nelma de Mello Silva; Miranda, José MessiasOrganic coffee is characterized by being produced without the use of chemical products and by having a similar or superior quality in comparison to that of coffee produced by traditional methods. The production of organic coffee does not include the use of highly soluble nutrients, which makes consumers concerned with environmental issues and healthy eating habits realize its true value. This paper aims to analyze the influence of harvesting, peeling and drying on the quality of organic coffee, in order to present the best way of producing high quality coffee. Samples of organic coffee were harvested by both conventional and selective ways, and some were peeled. They were then dried on concrete patio and on suspended terraces. The beans were analyzed for potassium leaching, electrical conductivity, titratable acidity, and submitted to coffee cupping-test. The results obtained indicated that the selective harvesting of the peeled or unpeeled cherry coffee dried on concrete terrace is feasible for production of fine coffees. This type of processing effectively influenced the final quality of the organic coffee, thus being an alternative to improve the quality and market value of the product, especially for small producers, cooperatives, and associations of coffee producers.
