Coffee is one of the agriculture commodities that are cultivated by farmers. One of the compounds in the coffee is caffeine. Caffeine is one of alkaloids which contains in coffee bean. The purpose of this study was to determine the contents of caffeine in unripe coffee, pure coffee powder, and mix coffee powder by using UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Standard solutions of caffeine used were 1 ppm; 3 ppm; 6 ppm; 9 ppm; 12 ppm; and 15 ppm. Caffeine calibration curve equation was y = 0.0494x ??+ 0.01862 with a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.99714. Caffeine content in unripe coffee was 1,28±0,82 % with water content 3%, pure coffee powder 1,63±0,13 % with water content 1%, and mix coffee powder 0,87±0,01 % with water content 1%. According to SNI 01-7152-2006 maximum limit of caffeine in food and drink was 150 mg/day and 50 mg/dish.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
