    Water quality plays a crucial role in shaping the sensory attributes and overall taste experience of Espresso Coffee (EC). This study aimed to investigate the influence of water quality parameters, specifically acidity (pH) and total dissolved solids (TDS), on CO2 degassing kinetics and sensory characteristics in Lampung Robusta espresso. Five different brands of bottled water were utilized for EC extraction, and their impact on CO2 degassing behavior, pH, TDS, and sensory attributes was evaluated. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey’s Honest Significant Difference (HSD) post-hoc tests were employed to assess the significance of differences in CO2 degassing levels among water brands. Two-way ANOVA was used to examine variations in pH and TDS before and after espresso extraction. Sensory evaluation by trained panelists was conducted to assess sensory characteristics. ANOVA revealed significant differences in CO2 degassing levels among water brands (F= 41.21, p= 1.41E-16), with specific brand pairs exhibiting significant variations identified by Tukey’s HSD test. Brand D water maintained the lowest average CO2 emissions (865 ppm) compared to other brands, indicating its potential in stabilizing the release of CO2 during the EC extraction. Two-way ANOVA demonstrated significant differences in pH (F= 38380.37, p < 0.001) and TDS (F= 1178385, p < 0.001) among water brands before and after espresso extraction. The highest TDS elevation observed in brand A post-extraction (7258 ppm) suggests a potential for over-extraction. The lowest final pH in EC was recorded with brand B (5.11) and the highest final pH of brand A (5.32) Sensory evaluation revealed variations in aroma, acidity, bitterness, body, crema, sweetness, mouthfeel, and flavor notes among espresso samples prepared with different water brands. This study highlights the significant impact of water quality on CO2 degassing and sensory attributes in Lampung Robusta espresso.

    The quality of the coffee is determined by the sensorial analysis, using subjective methods and it is known that this quality is related to the chemical constituents of the grains. The present study used infrared spectroscopy to correlate the chemical composition of the grain with the final quality of the product and to assist in the current evaluation method, generating more reliability in the process. This study applied the spontaneous and induced fermentation with starter cultures (yeast) to evaluate the sensory potential from the impacts generated by the types of processes adopted. The experiments were conducted in a randomized block design with five replicates, in a 3x4 factorial scheme, with three fermentation times: 24, 48, and 72 hours and four wet processes: Washed, Yeast fermentation, Fully washed without yeast, and Fully washed with yeast. Infrared spectra were taken in the medium region (FTIR-ATR) of the 34 samples generated by the treatments. Given that the method of determining the quality of coffee is subjective, based on scores given by cuppers, the FTIR-ATR spectra were used in the construction of chemometric models to predict sensory ratings given to the attribute ‘acidity’. The mean error of prediction of the model constructed for the sensory score was 0.11. Sensory results indicated a higher score for the acidity attribute, in dry fermentation with yeast at the time of 48 hours, suggesting a new strategy for the production of quality robusta coffee.
