Item Tasters’ performance in a coffee quality contest in Brazil(Editora UFLA, 2021) Pinheiro, Aracy Camilla Tardin; Fabri Júnior, Marcos Antônio; Cruz, Cosme Damião; Rufino, José Luis dos Santos; Sakiyama, Ney SussumuThe objective of this work was to evaluate the performance of coffee tasters in five annual editions of Minas Gerais Coffee Quality Contest. The repeat ability coefficients of the tasters’ scores for sensory attributes were estimated, as well as the minimum numbers of tasters required for consistent sensory results, and the groups of tasters by (dis)similarity of sensory scores. For the repeatability analysis, the treatments (coffees) were tested with the repeti tions, constituted by the tasters. The repeatability coefficients were estimated using the analysis of variance, principal component and structural analysis methods. The minimum number of tasters was obtained based on pre-established determination coefficients. Euclidean distance matrices between tasters were determined, which were used as a measure of dissimilarity for cluster analysis by the Tocher optimization method. The tasters’ performance in five annual editions of Minas Gerais Coffee Quality Contest is reliable using COE or SCA sensory analysis protocols. Although not fully calibrated, most tasters are grouped with similar cupping results. Unless efficient calibration prior to the contest is adopted, the number of tasters to be used in the next contest editions can not be drastically and randomly reduced, since the estimated minimum number varied over the years. Calibration activities are sug gested to improve two main aspects of the Minas Gerais Coffee Quality Contest: distinguishing the best coffees and trainning tasters.Item Physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory characterization of fermented coffee pulp beverages(Editora UFLA, 2021) Cruz, Claudia Milena Amorocho; Cortés, Yenifer MuñozCoffee pulp is the first by-product generated from coffee processing, a contaminating residue due to its composition and production volume. So, this research presents the use of coffee pulp with honey and sugar cane juice to elaborate alcoholic beverage and infusion. The harvested coffee was washed, pulped; the pulp was distributed in 3 treatments, by duplicates, (T) coffee pulp and water, (M) coffee pulp, water and honey, (G) coffee pulp and sugar cane juice. Then, each treatment was brought to 85 °C for 15 minutes, warmed up and yeast was added to each container. Fermentation was carried out for 14 days at 15 °C. After the liquid was separated from the pulp, the liquid fraction was left to ferment another 14 days, it was clarified with bentonite, it was bottled and for 102 days mature, the degrees of alcohol was measured by simple distillation. The pulp was placed in an oven at 75 °C for 3 days, the chemical composition was analyzed by FTIR, it was packed in hermetic bags, the dry coffee pulp was used to prepare an infusion. For its use, a fermented drink and an infusion were elaborated, evaluating physicochemical, microbiological, and sensorial characteristics through three treatments. The fermented drinks presented values of alcohol degrees 7°- 6°. The treatment with honey obtained a greater acceptance followed by the treatment with sugar cane juice. The infusions were acceptable, differentiated by herbal notes, pleasant aromas, and sweet flavors. In the pulp, the following were characterized by FTIR chemical compounds and wavelengths that show their absorbencies; caffeine with ranges of 2920-2850 and 1620 cm-1, 3280 cm-1 H2O, 1740 cm-1 lipids, 1240 cm-1 chlorogenic acid, and 1015 cm-1 carbohydrates. Finally, the infusions with coffee pulp were accepted by the evaluators, especially those that went through the fermentation process with honey and sugar cane.Item Quality of Coffea canephora beverage as a function of genotype, processing method and grain size(Editora UFLA, 2020) Lima, Julião Soares de Souza; Silva, Samuel de Assis; Fonseca, Abel Souza da; Pajehu, Levi FragaAfter harvesting, the coffee beans tend to lose quality during fruit processing and grain storage, thus affecting the quality of the obtained beverage. The objective of this research was to evaluate the quality of the beverage obtained from conilon coffee (Coffea canephora) for seminal (S) and clonal (C) genotypes, two processing methods of the coffee cherries (natural and peeled), different sizes of coffee beans determined by sieves and two storing periods of 45 and 90 days. The coffee cherries were dried, natural (N) and peeled (P), on cement floor in greenhouse and classified through the 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 sieves. After 45 days of storage, it is observed that the overall score (OS) of the beverage prepared from peeled clonal (PC) and natural seminal (NS) coffee beans increased with increasing bean size (sieves 15 and 16). The treatments PS13, PS14, PS15, PS16, PC15 and PC16 were significantly different, however, the overall score (OS) decreased after samples were stored for 90 days. It is concluded that after storing the coffee bean samples for 45 and 90 days, the OS decreased significantly for peeled seminal coffee (PS) sieves 13, 14, 15, and 16 and peeled clonal coffee (PC) sieves 15 and 16.Item Beverage quality of most cultivated Coffea canephora clones in the Western Amazon(Editora UFLA, 2020) Dalazen, Janderson Rodrigues; Rocha, Rodrigo Barros; Pereira, Lucas Louzada; Alves, Enrique Anastácio; Espindula, Marcelo Curitiba; Souza, Carolina Augusto deMost of the Western Amazon coffee production is made from growing unregistered clones, selected by the coffee growers themselves. The aim of this study is to evaluate the sensory profile and genetic diversity of the most cultivated Coffea canephora clones in the Western Amazon. Coffee samples at cherry stage of the clones 03, 05, 08, 25 and 66 were collected at eight municipalities in the main coffee growing zones, with altitudes ranging from 86 to 381 meters. Beverage quality was evaluated according to the Robusta Cupping Protocols and estimates of the genotype × environment interaction (GE) were made interpreting non-parametric and multivariate methods. The GE interaction was significant and the genetic component was also important to the expression of beverage quality (h2=82,23). The clones 25 and 05 have good attributes and mean score near 80 points. Sweetness was the sensory descriptor with the greatest impact on beverage quality of these two clones. Harshness was the descriptor that had the greatest negative impact on beverage quality of clone 66. The clones had complexities that differed and that were not necessarily associated with greater beverage quality. Despite the differences in their beverage attributes, these clones that are grown for their high productivity presented low genetic diversity of the beverage quality.
