Item Physicochemical and sensory analysis of coffee: A determination in different parts of the plant(Universidade Federal de Lavras, 2024-07-29) Sousa, Rachel Machado de; Paiva, Leandro CarlosThe quality of the Arabica coffee drink (Coffea arábica L) is the result of the interaction of several factors, such as climatic conditions, terroir, altitude, nutritional factor, management aspects, stage of fruit maturation, harvest, among others. The objective was to evaluate the physical-chemical quality of coffee fruits, through the soluble solids content of coffee beans, in different parts of the plant, in order to define which position/location on the plant presents the best results in relation to sensory attributes of the drink. The analysis of soluble solids (SS) in ºBrix of cherry and raw coffee, mass grains (MMG) and sensory evaluation, the Catuaí IAC 144 variety presented better results in relation to the Paraíso MG 419- 1 variety. Regarding electrical conductivity (EC), total titratable acidity (TTA) of raw coffee, pH, color the results of the two varieties were representative for quality, the values found in the analyzes are within the defined ranges. The experimental design used was randomized blocks and each variety was harvested in three blocks. Each block consisted of a plant, each plant was divided into twelve subdivisions. The treatments were arranged in a 12x2x3 factorial scheme and subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the means compared using the Scott Knott post hoc test with a significance level (p-value ≤ 0.05). The correlation matrix was used between the variables under study, in order to verify whether there is a linear relationship or not between the variable’s soluble solids ºBrix of cherry and raw coffee, aroma and body of the drink with the final average score of the tasters. Interpreting the generated equation, there is an association between body and final score, when increasing one unit in the body, an increase of 2.21 in the final score is expected. The positions on the coffee plant, upper third and lower third, in relation to the varieties Catuaí IAC 144 and Paraíso MG 419-1, were the most promising from the perspective of the results found in the physical-chemical and sensorial analysis.Item Efect of lnf (cna - cnb) enzyme complex in the drying process and the coffee quality(Editora UFLA, 2020) Santos, Douglas Freitas; Franco Junior, Kleso Silva; Silva, Carlos Henrique da; Silva Neto, José Francisco da; Paiva, Leandro Carlos; Brigante, Giselle PradoThe world demand for quality coffee is growing and the market is increasingly demanding for sustainable practices, leading coffee growers to search for new coffee processing processes always aiming for maximum quality. The objective of this work was to verify the benefits of using the LNF CNA – CNB enzyme complex in the postharvest process, in order to compare the results of drying time and the final beverage quality of the product. The research was carried out at Fazenda Iracema, municipality of Machado - Minas Gerais, with mechanically harvested coffees from the cultivar Mundo Novo, with 80% maturation, and the treatments were: natural and washed coffee, with and without application of enzymatic complex and drying in suspended, concrete and mixed courtyards (initially in the yard and finished in rotary dryers), the enzyme complex dosage was 1 ml CNB + 2.5 ml CNA per liter of water, applied to 60 liters of coffee. The experimental design was in randomized blocks, in a 2 x 2 x 3 factorial scheme (2- types of “washed or natural” processing; 2- with and without enzymatic application; 3 - “suspended, concrete and drying” drying forms), with 4 repetitions per treatment, totaling 48 experimental plots. The coffees were dried to 11.5% humidity and evaluated by the SCAA. It was concluded that the use of LNF (CNA - CNB) enzymatic complex in the coffee drying process did not influence the final drying time results, nor did it influence the coffee beverage aroma attributes. The drying forms directly influence the drying time.Item Effect of induced biological fermentations on coffee sensory quality(Editora UFLA, 2019-10) Cândido, Talita Amparo Tranches; Sepini, Pedro Pereira; Abrão, Polyana de Faria Cardoso; Oliveira, Reginaldo de; Campos, Kátia Alves; Paiva, Leandro CarlosQuality coffee consumption has been gradually increasing and having an impact on coffee prices not only for domestic but also for the foreign market. Different processing (preparation) methods of coffee will directly influence the quality of the final product. Taking this into consideration, this study aimed at evaluating sensory attributes of coffee submitted to biological fermentation. The experiment was carried out in a block design with 4 x 4 +1 factorial scheme. We evaluated the sensory attributes of coffee submitted to different fermentation treatments and times (8, 16, 24, 32 hours submerged in water, water + Saccharomyces cerevisiae, water + Saccharomyces bayanus, and water + Lactococcus lactis).
