Pengaruh Lama Pendinginan Air Nira dan Lama Penyimpanan terhadap Mutu Gula Aren Cair

Abstract

The aim of this researched to know the effect of the influence of long chilled inflorescences and long storage of liquid palm sugar. The research had been performed using factorial Completely Randomized Resign (CRD) with two factors, i.e; the long chilled inflorescences (P) : (0 day, 1 day and 2 day) and long storage (L) : (0 day, 15 day, 30 day, 45 day and 60 day). Parameters analyzed were moisture content, ash content, viskocity, pH, TSS and organoleptic values (colour, aromatic and taste,). The result of this researched showed that the long chilled inflorescences had highly significant effect of the moisture content, ph, viskocity, TSS and organoleptic value (colour, aromatic and taste), but had not significant effect of the ash content. The long storage had highly significant effect of moisture content, pH, Viskocity, TSS and organoleptic value (Colour, aromatic and taste), but had not significant effect of ash content. The interaction of the long chilled inflorescences and long storage had highly significant effect of moisture content and viskocity and had significant effect of pH, but had not significant effect of ash content. The long chilled 0 day and long storage 0 day were the best result of liquid palm sugar.
