หัวเรื่อง:การหมักโกโก้ III: การปรับปรุงการหมักโกโก้โดยเสริมการหมักด้วยกล้าเชื้อผสมในระดับห้องปฏิบัติการและเกษตรกร ผู้เขียน:นางอรพิน ภูมิภมร, รองศาสตราจารย์, Jantana Jinda, บุญให้ แหลมเพชร, Piyanut Naka สื่อสิ่งพิมพ์:pdf AbstractIn studied improvement of cocoa fermentation by inoculated with selected culture in laboratoryscale the microorganisms used were 3 strains of alcohol-producing yeasts, pectinase-producing yeasts and bacteria, and 6 strains of acetic acid bacteria. After cocoa fermentation in 5 kg batches of each strains, the strains which showed better results in fully fermented (4/4F) cocoa by cut-test method were Saccharomyces cerevisiae (KU-Y77), Saccharomyces chevalieri (KU-Y150) and Acetobacter aceti (KU-A72). The optimum ratio of these strains in 20 kg cocoa batches were 1.5:1.0:1.0 (% weight) which given fully fermented cocoa in 81.7-83.5% where as 43.7-61.0% were found in natural fermentation batches. Four farm-trials cocoa fermentation experiment with inoculated mix-culture were carried on 4 and 6 days. The results showed fully fermented cocoa in 79-84% which was indicated as cocoa FAO grade 1 standard. In the same time, the cocoa fermentation period was able to reduce from 6 days to 4 days. Anyhow, the utilization of inoculum in small scale (20-40 kg) showed promising. However, the quality of mix-culture fermented cocoa should be further investigated by sensory evaluation method. |
หัวเรื่อง:การหมักโกโก้ IV: การประเมินคุณภาพทางเคมีและประสาทสัมผัสของโกโก้หมักด้วยกล้าเชื้อผสม ผู้เขียน:นางอรพิน ภูมิภมร, รองศาสตราจารย์, Jantana Jinda, บุญให้ แหลมเพชร, Piyanut Naka สื่อสิ่งพิมพ์:pdf Abstract The quality of mix-culture fermented cocoa beans ere evaluated by sensory taste which related to some chemical substances. The fermented cocoa beans were received from 4 farm-trials in 4 days fermentation batches with full fermented beans of 79-87%, thus indicated in FAO grade 1 standard. Sensory taste of mix-culture fermented cocoa beans, evaluated by 20 trained panelists, indicated more preferable than the natural fermented one with preference score 6.0 – 7.5. The bitter astringent and acidity were reduced which related to the reduction of threobromine and glucose contents. The amount of threobromine and glucose were found to be 13.23-16.76 and 1.05-1.87 mg/g, respectively. The pH was 5.18-5.34 which was the pH range of accepted cocoa group. The organic acids that concerted to cocoa-flavor were acetic, lactic, citric and oxalic were found in the range of 0.60-2.89, 1.51-3.77, 2.83-3.34 and 0.49-0.56 mg/g respectively. According to proximate analysis, the protein and fat ( cocoa butter ) were in amount of 9.96-11.96% and 53.41-58.00% respectively with 61.65-67.75% saturated and 32.25-38.35% unsaturated fatty acid. As the results of experiment showed that the preference of mix-culture fermented cocoa beans were also related to some chemical substances in fermented cocoa which indicated to good quality cocoa beans. Thus, the improvement of cocoa fermentation with mix-culture can reduce fermentation time and also show better quality than the natural fermented one by without any changes in cocoa butter quality which was another good economic products. |
