Item Effect of Microwave Use on Kawa Daun Production: Production, Composition, and Antioxidant Properties(Editora UFLA, 2025-06-03) Arief, Rastra Gemi Nastiti; Malrianti, Yefsi; Kasim, Anwar; Neswati; SujatmikoKawa daun tea is a drink made of dried coffee leaves from Western Sumatra, offering refreshing benefits for the body. The use of a microwave in the drying process proves to be an effective method due to its significantly high efficiency. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of varying drying time using microwave on the characteristics of coffee leaves, kawa daun tea, and drinking water, as well as to determine effect of microwave treatment. This study uses a complete random design with ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) and followed by a DNMRT (Duncan’s News Multiple Range Test). The results showed that the difference in drying times significantly affected properties of coffee tea leaves, specifically on the total water-soluble substance test. However, there was no substantial impact on the yield, water level, polyphenols level, caffeine level, and antioxidant activity. The length was also affected by polyphenols level, total soluble solidity, and water solubility antioxidant activity, but did not impact caffeine content test. The maximum time for optimal drying coffee leaves was two minutes with a yield of 35.99% hydration, 4.33% water level, 48.56 mgGAE/g total polyphenols level, 0.56% caffeine level, 63.43% oxidative activity, and 4.61% total water-soluble material. In the chemical analysis of drinking water, the results obtained were total polyphenol content of 28.1 mg GAE/g, caffeine content of 0.45%, total dissolved solids of 1.87%, and antioxidant activity of 88.79%. Thus, it is also concluded that there is no negative effect of drying coffee leaves with a microwave.Item Antioxidant Activity and Phytochemicals of Freeze-dried and Spray-dried Soluble Coffee Brews(Editora UFLA, 2025-05-19) Susilawati, I Dewa Ayu; Muzeka, FrediThis study analyzed the antioxidant activity and the concentration of several phytochemicals i.e. polyphenols, caffeine, glutathione (GSH), and protein, of freeze-dried and spray-dried soluble coffee brews. Six types of coffee samples were analyzed i.e., 1) Spray-Dried Robusta instant coffee (SDR), 2) Freeze-Dried Robusta instant coffee (FDR), 3) Regular Robusta coffee powder (RR), 4) Spray-Dried Arabica instant coffee (SDA), 5) Freeze-Dried Arabica instant coffee (FDA), and 6) Regular Arabica coffee powder (RA). Antioxidant activity was determined using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH) radical scavenging assay. Polyphenols, caffeine, glutathione, and protein were measured spectrophotometrically. Results showed that freeze-dried instant coffee (both robusta and arabica) in a concentration of 500 ppm demonstrated DPPH radical scavenger activity >80% and significantly higher (p<0.05) compared to spray-dried soluble coffee and regular coffee brews. This level was maintained in concentrations of 750 ppm, 1000 ppm, and 1500 ppm. The higher antioxidant activity of freeze-dried coffee brew was in line with the higher concentration of polyphenols, caffeine, GSH, and protein. In conclusion, freeze-dried instant coffee demonstrated more sensitive antioxidant activity, probably due to its more abundant polyphenols, caffeine, GSH, and protein.Item Coffee and blood pressure(Universidade Federal de Lavras, 2024-06-17) Nurvita, Silvia; Rizkaprilisa, WindyCoffee has a characteristic taste, aroma and color that attracts its fans. Coffee is one of the drinks most consumed after mineral water. Annual coffee consumption is estimated at around 500 billion cups/year. Coffee contains a lot of caffeine and other chemical compounds. Coffee having a positive impact on health, also has a negative impact on health. The negative impact of coffee on health is that coffee affects blood pressure (BP) and the risk of hypertension. This research aims to determine the effect of coffee on blood pressure according to existing research. This research method uses the Literature Review (LR) research type. The article inclusion criteria used for this research were articles published in 2020-2023 with the keywords coffee, blood pressure, the relationship between coffee and blood pressure, the effect of coffee and blood pressure. This research found three articles that met the inclusion criteria for this research. The results of this research explain that three articles, there are two articles which prove that coffee consumption has no effect on blood pressure, but there is one article which shows that the duration of coffee consumption has an effect on systolic blood pressure. The conclusion of this literature study from these three articles can be concluded that on average coffee consumption has no effect on blood pressure. Coffee that is good for health is pure coffee that is brewed without a sugar.Item Roasting variations and brewing methods in the preparation of clear Coffee Beverages from Gayo Arabica Coffee(Universidade Federal de Lavras, 2024-07-29) Sulaiman, Ismail; Marsyanda; Erika, CutCoffee drinks are trendy drinks around the world, and they usually contain caffeine. However, this research focuses on creating a coffee drink that does not contain caffeine so that those who cannot consume it can enjoy it. The resulting coffee drink is a colorless coffee drink. The coffee production process initially produces a black-colored drink, but it can turn it into a clear-colored drink through distillation and chemical methods. This research aims to study the process of making clear coffee by varying roasting and brewing levels with various variations to obtain clear-colored coffee and low caffeine levels. Preparation of clear coffee drinks is done by brewing espresso and Tobruk, which is then analyzed for pH, caffeine, and color tests on the results of the clear coffee drink. Based on the ranking test on each parameter tested on clear coffee drinks, the best treatment is using the distillation method, espresso brewing, and medium roasting level. The analysis results of this selected formulation produced a transparent beverage color (clear), pH 3.5, and caffeine levels of 4.639 mg/mL.
