Red seaweed (Kappaphycus alvarezii) is one type of algae that produced carrageenan. Carrageenan can be used as a stabilizer, thickening agent, gelling agent, emulsifier, coagulant agents, colloid protective agents, and crystallization-preventing agents. This property is widely used in the food industry, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, textiles, paint, toothpaste and other industries. This research aims to determine the yield of semi-refined carrageenan (SRC) and to compare the quality of red seaweed (Kappaphycus alvarezii) prepared by two difference methods i.e. sun drying and artificial drying with various drying time (12h, 24h, or 40h). The results showed that the yield of semi-refined carrageenan (SRC) dried with artificial dryer (56%) was not within the required of Indonesian national standard for carrageenan. Also, results indicated that the lowest fat content 0.2% was achieved after 12h drying period with cabinet dryer whilst the lowest moisture content was prepared by drying seaweed for 40h under the sun.

Rotary drum dryer has been identified as hygienic and practical method to dry black pepper. The quality of black pepper is defined based on the chemical properties and moisture content. This research aims to develop a control system for black pepper rotary drum dryer. The dried pepper should meet the specific 12% moisture content while the heating temperature must be kept below 550C. The requirement of 12% moisture content is equivalent to 30% of the remaining weight of the pepper (final weight). The developed system uses Arduino Mega 2560 REV board as a microcontroller. A type K thermocouple with MAX6675 thermocouple amplifier and S-type load cells (TAS501) with HX711 load cell amplifier are used as input sensor to microcontroller. The system keeps measuring the current weight until it hit the targeted final weight. Two set of experiments that are using 500 g and 1500 g of pre-treated pepper were conducted to verify the system. As a result, the dryer was successful to work within the desired temperature and it stop operating just after the samples reached 12% of the moisture content. The finding has proven a shorten of drying time from 4 to 7 days when using the traditional method to the current 3 – 5 hours only when using the developed system. Hence, this is an improved method achieved to a quick drying of the black pepper.

In terms of content, the paper is aimed at analysing and comparing the quality of fresh green hops and hops dried at two drying temperatures – 55°C (in the traditional manner) and 40°C (using the so-called gentle drying), regarding the maximum preservation of hop essential oils. Comparative experiments were carried out in an experimental chamber dryer with two Czech hop cultivars Saaz and Harmonie. The moisture content of hops at the beginning of drying was 75% and at the end of drying it was 9–10%. By lowering the drying temperature from 55°C to 40°C, the drying time in cv. Saaz prolonged from 8 to 10 h and for the cv. Harmonie from 9 h to 12 h. Compared to fresh hops, the amount of hop oils decreased by 10% when dried at 40°C and by 36% (cv. Saaz) and 43% (cv. Harmonie) when dried at 55°C. These losses can be considered significant, especially for hops intended for late and dry beer hopping. However, by drying the hops at different temperatures, the ratios between various components of the essential oils and thus also their sensory character remained approximately unchanged. Due to the reduced amount of essential oils, the drying effect reduces the intensity of hop aroma depending on the drying temperature.

AbstractThe population of gluten sensitive people has been gradually rising in the last decades. The food industry, especially the bakery industry has to develop more gluten-free products to satisfy the consumer's demand. However, the quality of these products differs from the quality attributes of a standard glutenious bakery product. Therefore, the aim of our research was to develop a good quality gluten-free sourdough product with 3 different gluten-free flours: millet, brown rice and a commercially available mixture (Belbake). We investigated the differences in moisture content, the baking loss, the texture and the sensory properties of the products. According to our results in the case of the moisture content the brown rice sample had the highest, while the millet gave the lowest value. The baking loss measurement gave reverse results. In the texture analysis the brown rice sample was the softest, but the millet and the Belbake had better results in resilience and in springiness. Also, in the sensory analyses the Belbake product was found to be the best by the judges, however, there were no significant differences between them. In conclusion, the product development of a gluten-free sourdough bakery product was successful. Further research is needed to investigate the shelf life of the products.
