Pure coconut oil or Virgin coconut oil is a modification of making coconut oil to produce products with the lower water and acid level , clear and has a long shelf life of 12 months. In terms of economics, pure coconut oil has higher selling price compared to traditional coconut oil by heating coconut milk or precipitating coconut milk in a long time so as to produce rancid odor and poor quality due to high water content and free fatty acid. The purpose of this study was to obtain pure coconut oil with lower water content and free fatty acids according to SNI. There are 3 methods of making pure coconut oil that is method of fermentation, induction and heating, while the method was used in this research is the method of heating.  Heating method which is tested by gradual heating or once heating, for gradual warming done preheat with temperature 60-110 ° C with 9 hours of drying and heating time with 60 ° C temperature variations (sample A), 70 ° C (sample B), 80 ° (sample C) and 5 hours, 4 hour and 3 hour drying time. The results showed that drying air temperature had an effect on product quality and length of drying time. The results of the calculation and testing showed the most effective treatment that is on the sample A with water content and free fatty acid content of the lowest reached 0.08% and 0.10%.

The clove leaves are part of the clove plant which rarely used, and if you look at them, the clove leaves have active compounds that can be functioned as antibacterials. Meanwhile, Virgin Coconut Oil or called VCO, is processed from coconut milk as the essential ingredient, and if it is not processed correctly, VCO will usually have a short shelf life or can be damaged quickly. This study aims to determine the quality of VCO by adding clove leaves in its processing. Based on the results of the study, it can be seen that the quality of VCO with the addition of clove leaves for the indicator of water content and the free fatty acid number is not following the Indonesian National Standard (SNI). In contrast, the indicator for the VCO peroxide number with a mixture of clove leaves has good quality according to the SNI standard. Based on the results of the study, it can be seen that the quality of VCO with the addition of 100 grams of clove leaves for indicators of water content and fatty acid numbers, namely 2.9% and 0.69%, is high or above the SNI standard limit. In comparison, the quality of VCO with the addition of 100 grams of clove leaves with indicators a peroxide value of 0.7 mg ek/ kg or less than 2 mg ek/kg has good quality based on Indonesian National Standard. Keywords: Quality, VCO

ABSTRACT Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) is coconut oil that is processed by controlled heating or can be produced without heating (fermentation) so that it does not change the composition or aracteristics of the oil. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of fermentation time on the physical and chemical properties of VCO. This research includes two stages. The first stage is producing VCO based on fermentation time with raw materials such as coconut and tempeh yeast. The second stage performs physical and chemical analysis which includes yield, water content, free fatty acid content and density. This study used a Simple Completely Randomized Design with 1 fermentation time factor (L). There are 4 fermentation times used, namely L1 = 24 hours, L2 = 36 hours, L3 = 48 hours, L4 = 60 hours with 4 replications to obtain 16 experimental units. Further test using DMRT. The results showed that all yields were above 16%. Fermentation time significantly affected the yield, water content, free fatty acid content but had no effect on density. The best results were shown in VCO with 48 hours of fermentation time, namely yield of 21,843%, water content of 0,238%, free fatty acid content of 0,149% and density of 0,892 g/ml.

Mandar coconut oil is one of the coconut processed products, which has become superior product in West Sulawesi especially in Majene regency. Unfortunately, the Mandar coconut oil can’t be used more than a month because the water content and free fatty acid content of the oil have exceeded the maximum standard of SNI, so it can adversely affect on health. On the other hand, the existence of rice husk in Indonesia itself especially in West Sulawesi has not received attention and is limited to a few needs such as for ash or livestock feed, and the rest is thrown away. This research aims to determine the effect of rice husk ash addition on the increasing of Mandar coconut oil quality. Completely randomized design was used in this research with 6 rice husk ash concentration variation levels i.e. 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%. The result shows that the addition of rice husk ash with 10% to 25% can reduce the water content of the oil until the quality standard of SNI is full filled. The highest reduction of water content was reached with 25% of rice husk ash concentration with 81% of reduction percentage. While, the addition of rice husk ash with 15% concentration can reduce the free fatty acid content of Mandar coconut oil until 32%.

VCO (Virgin Coconut Oil) is one of coco-diesel source, made without high heating and chemicals. Commercial processes production, such fermentation and centrifugation usually need more time and expensive in cost and investment. Circulating by pumping through a nozzle is a new process method invented to produce VCO. The process followed by coalescence method, breaking emulsion by hitting particles through pipe and nozzle. The problem of this method was that the product gave lower yield than another method and not yet qualified. This research was purposed to discover correlation between pressure and time of circulation variables against yield and content (FFA, Peroxide, water content) represented by SNI (national Indonesian standard). Producing VCO initiated by producing coconut milk from fresh old coconut, then each 1 litre milk were pumped through the pipe and nozzle with variation of circulations pressures and time. The results were decanted for 10 hours so the oil and water would be separated. The oil at upper layer was taken as final product. Then the last step was analysed the oils and oil cake (blondo). The results showed that pressure and time of circulating variables gave impact to the yield. On optimum variables, 2 atm pressure and 15 minutes of circulating gave better results with 97% yield. This operating variables also affecting oil quality. The minimum water content is 0.1%, free fatty acid is 0.18% and peroxide value is 2 mg/kg eq. The results showed that all of parameters meet the SNI standard.
