    Temporal progress of coffee leaf rust and environmental conditions affecting severity in Veracruz State, Mexico
    (Universidade Federal de Lavras, 2023-03-28) Pale-Ezquivel, Ivan; Lagunes, Ricardo Musule; Pineda-López, Maria del Rosario; Alarcón-Gutiérrez, Enrique; Sánchez-Velásquez, Lázaro Rafael
    Coffee is an important crop in Mexico. Unfortunately, coffee production has been affected by coffee leaf rust (CLR). For Veracruz, the second state in Mexico with the major production of coffee, there are available reports of weekly CLR severity, but these are only informative without in-depth inferential analysis. We analyzed variations of CLR severity along the year in Veracruz with data from municipal weekly reports provided by Mexico’s federal government phytosanitary epidemiological monitoring coffee program. We selected reports dated in 2018 from nine municipalities and after calculations of mean monthly severity values, we conducted a one-way ANOVA (months as factors) of severity data. We compared this information with other coffee-producing regions. Additionally, we explored the association of temperature, rainfall, and altitude with CLR severity using Principal Component Analysis and multiple linear regressions. Temperature and rainfall data were obtained from Mexican National Meteorological Service. We found that CLR severity in October, November, December, and January (months of harvest period) was significantly higher than values from March-June. During the harvest period, coffee plants allocate resources mainly for fruiting which competes in resources for other tasks such as defense and leaf growth, so this competition of resources can explain the positive relationship found between fruit load and CLR severity. This monthly variation of severity was similar to those reported in Chiapas, Guatemala, Colombia, Uganda, and Ethiopia. Our model (R2 = 0.948) showed a significant and negative effect of minimum and maximum temperature (in a range from 9.9 – 15.5 °C and 18.5 – 26.5 °C, respectively) on CLR severity, while the effect of rainfall (in a range from 32.0 – 359.9 mm) and médium temperature (from 14.3 – 20.5 °C) was positive. With our study, we suggest applications of fungicides in March-June when coffee plantations are in leaf phenophase.

    (Universidade Federal de Lavras, 2023-01-20) Chairuddin, Zulkarnain; Laban, Sartika; Iksan, Muh.; Khaerunnisa, Khaerunnisa; Suhardjo, Suhardjo; Hock, Tan Khim
    The primary aimed of this study is to carry out land zoning of Arabica coffee area based on the characteristics of organoleptic sensory attributes with the optimal taste of coffee wine at different levels of altitudes. The study was conducted on the hillsides of Mount Bawakaraeng Lompobattang, South Sulawesi Province which has Arabica coffee plants at different altitudes, namely, 1000-1200 m.asl (A), 1200-1400 m.asl (B), 1400-1600 m.asl (C), and 1600-1800 m.asl (D). Quality tests of coffee beans and organoleptic sensory attribute taste tests were carried out including fragrance or aroma, flavor, aftertaste, acidity, body, uniformity, balance, clean cup, sweetness, overall, and taint or defect. The results of the study showed that the coffee beans were classified as quality 1 with large bean size; while the characteristics of uniformity, clean cup, and sweetness are the basic or essential characteristics of the coffee beans tested in this study because they showed the highest score of 10 and this score is consistent for all levels of altitudes. The results of compiling organoleptic sensory attribute data and satellite imagery analysis were used for mapping potential coffee fields with Specialty Grade, covering area of 20,025.54 ha or equal to 2.00% of the research area of 1,011,693 ha. In addition, coffee land zones can also be mapped with the level of coffee wine taste based on the distribution pattern of dominant organoleptic sensory attributes at different altitude. The order of the optimal level of coffee wine taste can be written as the land zoning, as follows: D > B > C > A. The land zoning D covers an area of 3,351.60 ha; B 5,738.53 ha; C 4,381.27 ha; and A 3,552.10 ha. Overall, it can be concluded that the taste of wine coffee tends to be better or optimal as the level of altitude increases.

    Monte Carlo simulation and importance sampling applied to sensory analysis validation of specialty coffees
    (Universidade Federal do Ceará, 2021) Ferreira, Haiany Aparecida; Liska, Gilberto Rodrigues; Cirillo, Marcelo Ângelo; Borém, Flávio Meira; Ribeiro, Diego Egídio; Cortez, Ricardo Miguel
    Coffee sensory analysis is usually made by a sensory panel, which is formed by trained tasters, following the recommendations of the Specialty Coffee Association of America. However, the preference for a coffee is commonly determined by experimentation with consumers, who typically have no special skills in terms of sensory characteristics. Therefore, this study aimed at applying an intensive computational method to study sensory notes given by an untrained sensory panel, considering the probability distributions of the class of extreme values. Four types of specialty coffees produced under different processes and in varied altitudes in the mountainous region of Mantiqueira, Minas Gerais, were considered. We concluded that the generalized Pareto distribution can be applied to sensory analysis to discriminate types of specialty coffees. Furthermore, the method of importance sampling by Monte Carlo simulation showed greater variability considering a probabilistic model adjusted to identify specialty coffees.

    Qualidade do café-cereja descascado produzido na região sul de Minas Gerais
    (Editora UFLA, 2004-11) Silva, Reginaldo Ferreira da; Pereira, Rosemary Gualberto F. A.; Borém, Flávio Meira; Muniz, Joel Augusto
    O café-cereja descascado vem conquistando cada vez mais espaço nas diversas regiões produtoras de café. Considerando os diversos questionamentos sobre a qualidade dos grãos resultantes desse tipo de processamento, os poucos estudos sobre o assunto e as contradições observadas nos resultados obtidos até o momento, com o presente estudo teve-se por objetivo caracterizar a qualidade do café-cereja descascado produzido na região sul do Estado de Minas Gerais, bem como averiguar a influência da altitude na qualidade desse café por meio de análises físicas, químicas e sensoriais das amostras em seu estado original e após a retirada de grãos defeituosos. Foram aleatoriamente selecionadas lavouras de empresas cafeeiras situadas em faixas de altitude que variaram de 720 a 920 metros e de 920 a 1120 metros. As amostras de café da safra 2001/2002 foram coletadas em 32 propriedades distribuídas em 10 municípios. No Pólo de Tecnologia em Qualidade do Café da Universidade Federal de Lavras (UFLA), foram realizadas as seguintes análises: teor de água, acidez titulável total, açúcares totais e análise sensorial. As análises físicas, químicas e sensoriais realizadas nos grãos de café demostraram que a maioria dos cafés descascados apresenta teor de água abaixo do valor recomendado; os valores médios de acidez titulável total e açúcares totais em todas as amostras analisadas encontram-se dentro dos valores característicos de bebidas finas; os cafés sem a presença dos defeitos, produzidos na faixa de altitude de 920 a 1120 metros, apresentam corpo e acidez mais fracos e doçura mais alta do que os produzidos na faixa de 720 a 920 metros; e que maiores altitudes possibilitam a produção de cafés de melhor qualidade.

    Meteorological variables and sensorial quality of coffee in the Mantiqueira region of Minas Gerais
    (Editora UFLA, 2019-01) Borém, Flávio Meira; Luz, Marcos Paulo Santos; Sáfadi, Thelma; Volpato, Margarete Marin Lordelo; Alves, Helena Maria Ramos; Borém, Rosângela Alves Tristão; Maciel, Daniel Andrade
    The objective in this study was to identify meteorological variables related to the sensorial quality of the coffees from Mantiqueira region in Minas Gerais. Meteorological conditions are strongly related to the coffee’s sensorial characteristics, however, there aren’t many studies quantifying this relation. Air temperature and rainfall data were collected and spatialized for regional analysis. These were associated to the 2007 through 2011 coffees’ beverage scores. The region was stratified according to relief characteristics. The bigger frequency of high scores occurred on the region’s central-south, where coffee cultivation is performed above 900 m altitude. For the in loco study, meteorological data and coffee samples were collected in selected pilot areas. Coffee crops were selected in three altitude ranges: below 1000 m, between 1000 and 1200 m, and over 1200 m. Above 1000 m the meteorological variable that presented the biggest variation was the air temperature. Above 1000 m the smallest thermal amplitude occurred, which provided superior quality coffees. The study demonstrates the importance of the meteorological variable characterization aiming to identify locations with greater vocation to the specialty coffees production.

    Qualidade de cafés especiais: uma avaliação sensorial feita com consumidores utilizando a técnica MFACT
    (Universidade Federal do Ceará, 2017-01) Ossani, Paulo César; Cirillo, Marcelo Ângelo; Borém, Flávio Meira; Ribeiro, Diego Egídio; Cortez, Ricardo Miguel
    A qualidade sensorial de cafés especiais, cujas características se relacionam com o meio geográfico é apreciada pelo setor produtivo e o mercado, no qual, uma relação comercial é pautada na livre escolha, por parte do consumidor e na agregação de valores e diferenciação de preços em função da qualidade do produto. Neste cenário, focar as tendências dos consumidores é primordial para que um café seja diferenciado em relação aos demais; para isso, novas metodologias de análise devem ser exploradas para que os resultados sejam dignos de contemplaram inúmeros fatores inerentes às particularidades de cada consumidor e/ou produto. Com esse propósito, o objetivo desse artigo é propor o uso da técnica de múltiplos fatores aplicada a tabelas de contingência (MFACT), em dados categorizados obtidos em um experimento sensorial realizado com diferentes grupos de consumidores com a finalidade de identificar similaridades entre quatro cafés especiais. Concluiu-se que o uso dessa técnica é viável, por permitir discriminar os cafés especiais produzidos em diferentes ambientes (altitudes) e processamentos, considerando a heterogeneidade entre os consumidores envolvidos na análise sensorial.

    Sensory analysis of specialty coffee from different environmental conditions in the region of Matas de Minas, Minas Gerais, Brazil
    (Universidade Federal de Viçosa, 2016-07) Silveira, Alice de Souza; Pinheiro, Aracy Camilla Tardin; Ferreira, Williams Pinto Marques; Silva, Laércio Junio da; Rufino, José Luis dos Santos; Sakiyama, Ney Sussumu
    Specialty coffees can be differentiated in various ways, including the environmental conditions in which they are produced and the sensory composition of the drink. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of altitude, slope exposure and fruit color on the sensory attributes of cafes of the region of Matas de Minas. Sampling points were georeferenced in four altitude ranges (< 700 m; 700 < x > 825 m, 825 < x < 950 m and > 950 m) of the coffee crop; two fruit colors of var. Catuaí (yellow and red); and two slope exposures (North-facing and South-facing). Coffee fruit at the cherry stage were processed and submitted to sensory analysis. The sensory attributes evaluated were overall perception, clean cup, balance, aftertaste, sweetness, acidity, body and flavor, which made up the final score. The scores were examined by ANOVA and means were compared by the Tukey test (p < 0.05). From the sensory standpoint, coffee fruits of both colors are similar, as well as the coffees from both slope exposures when these factors were analyzed separately. However, at higher altitudes, Yellow Catuaí produces coffees with better sensory quality. Similarly, coffees from North-facing slopes, at higher altitudes produce better quality cup. The altitude is the main factor that interferes with coffee quality in the area. All factors together contribute to the final quality of the beverage produced in the region of Matas de Minas.
