<p class="Abstrak"><span lang="EN-GB">By processing sorghum grains into flour, the use of sorghum grains to support food diversification can be made more varied. The research objective was to determine the physical and chemical properties of sorghum muffins and changes of physical properties of sorghum muffins during storage. The research uses a completely randomized design with two factor, grain soaking duration (hours) and ratio of concentration of whole sorghum flours with gluten flour (%) and consists of nine treatments combination. The result shows that treatment has a significant effect on the power expansion, degree of brightness, fat, and preference for organoleptic properties. The best treatment was 24-hours of soaking, 25% whole sorghum flour, 75% gluten flour that produces expanded power at 138,83%, degree of brightness (L) at 67.03, redness (a) at +4.33, yellowness (b) at +27.37, water content of 12.59%, protein content of 6.95%, fat content of 2.46%, score of color at 3.20, texture score at 3.13, aroma score at 3.16, taste score at 3.24, and for overall acceptance at 3.53 (like). Changes of physical properties of sorghum muffins during storage for 3 days can be explained with the linear equation. For all parameter (weight loss, volume loss, brightness loss), the value of constant a in the equation of sorghum muffin was lower than control muffin that indicated quality loss of sorghum muffins is higher than control muffin. Increasing the concentration of sorghum flour resulted a decrease in the quality of the muffins. The soaking treatment of the seeds in making sorghum flour can maintain the quality of the muffin.</span></p>
The study was aimed at obtaining a vermicelli formulation on a mixture of corn and rice flour, adding carrageenan and its economic analysis. The experiment applied a 2-factorial randomized block design, where factor 1 was a mixture of corn and rice flour (5 levels) and factor 2 was carrageenan concentration (5 levels), repeated three times. The data were analyzed using ANOVA provided in SPSS. When there were significant differences, the analysis proceeded with DMRT at a level of 5% to see differences among treatments. The results show that the higher the corn flour and carrageenan concentration, the higher the vermicelli’s ash and fat content. The formulation produces wet vermicelli with a good appearance. The production of vermicelli uses an extruder method. The selected vermicelli formulation was a mixture of 25% corn flour with 75% rice flour and the addition of 0.6% carrageenan. The characteristics of the wet vermicelli are moisture content of 42.84%, ash content of 0.21% on a wet basis (wb), and fat content of 0.43% wb. The organoleptic test of vermicelli was color 3.9 (liked), aroma 3.6 (liked), texture 2.6 (quite soft), taste 3.7 (liked), and general appearance 3.5 (liked). Economically, making vermicelli made of corn and rice flour is profitable because the R/C ratio value is greater than one, which is 2.27. The resulting wet vermicelli resembles wet noodles, large in size and yellow in color, so it can be recommended as gluten-free noodles, suitable for consumption by people with gluten allergies.
<em>The processing methods of coffee bean are various in different regions in Indonesia. One of the methods is by adding the material of coffee bean with other ingredients such as rice. This research was aimed to investigate the effect of adding white and black rice into the yield and quality of robusta coffee within its powder and brews. The experiment used the completely randomized design, with three treatments namely: pure coffee; coffee+white rice; and coffee+black rice. Observation parameters consisted of: rendement;color; organoleptical properties; and antioxidant activity. The results showed that the addition of black or white rice (30%) did not affected the yield, pannelist's preference for color, and the bitter level of coffee brews. However, the addition of white or black rice had a significant effect on the degree of lightness and the antioxidant activity of the coffee powder, also the panelist's preference for the aroma and taste for coffee brews. The black rice addition showed to be more preferred which scored 3.18 for aroma and 3.55 for taste than white rice addition in coffee brews. Moreover, the color of the coffee powder of coffee + black rice became brighter (L = 35), and the antioxidant activity was increased to reach 44.74% as the highest among other treatments. The black rice addition could be used to improve the antioxidant activity of the commercial robusta coffee powder and brews with fairly consumer acceptance. </em>
This study aims to determine market segments, market targets, and market positioning of slimming jelly using the segmentation analysis on healthy food consumer. The respondents used in this study were the consumers who regularly consume healthy food at least once per week within the last two months. The number of samples is 204 respondents. The consumer segmentation is done based on several variables including demographic aspects, motivation, consumption consistency, social tendencies, and attitudes towards new products. The segmentation analysis is carried out using the K-means non-hierarchical clustering method. The method splits the customers into three significantly different clusters at the 0.05 level, namely the adolescent age segment, which has attention to body shape, the adult segment which focus on body weight control, and the adults' segment which are not interested on body weight control. Based on the principle of selective specialization, the target market for slimming jelly is in clusters 1 and 2, with slimming jelly is positioned as a hunger delaying food that claimed to be high in fiber and low in calories so that it is suitable for health and can be used in diet programs.
The increment of soybean consumption demands product diversification. One example of soybean-based product is extracted soybean in the form of soymilk, which has the following weaknesses: short shelf life, unpleasant aroma, and impractical processing. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the processing of instant soymilk compared with its brewed solutions using hot and cold water. This experiment will use a completely randomized block design with two factors: the soybean variety ( i.e., Kaba, Burangrang, Anjasmoro, and Argomulyo) and the time to oven of 20 and 30 minutes. The soybean's physical characteristics that will be observed include width, length, thickness, volume, and weight per 100 beans, whereas the powder characteristics shall include yield, moisture, protein content, and degree of lightness. In addition, the characteristics of brewed solutions will be measured using an organoleptical test. The results show that the Argomulyo variety has the biggest size among others, and the Anjasmoro variety contains the highest protein content (38.05%), whereas the Kaba variety has the lowest starch content (4.15%). The best instant soybean powder was the Anjasmoro variety with a time to oven of 20 minutes and the highest protein content (7.88%), where the value of lightness L = 83.4; a = 3.40, and b = 17.95. Moreover, the organoleptical test result for powder color scored 4.16, and the unfavorable aroma was 3.37, whereas the solutions' color was 3.74; favorable aroma was 2.16; taste was 2.11; while the overall preference was 2.26.
