Conclusioni................................................................................................76 Bibliografia......................................................................................................78 Bibliografia Riassunto Questa tesi di Master nasce dalla passione e dall’esperienza lavorativa che mi lega al mondo del caffè da ormai 10 anni, come titolare di una piccola torrefazione artigianale nella provincia di Lecco. Grazie al caffè ho avuto la possibilità di conoscere molte persone sia in Italia che nei Paesi produttori, in particolare in Colombia e in Messico, dove sono stato ospite dei campesinos e da cui ho avuto la fortuna di apprendere molto sulla coltivazione biologica della pianta e sulle ripercussioni sociali e ambientali che può avere il caffè. In questa tesi non ho ritenuto necessario dover trattare della ormai inflazionata tematica della caffeina e delle sue ripercussioni sulla salute (sia positive che negative), ma ho preferito concentrarmi su due aspetti del caffè meno conosciuti e secondo me di grande interesse. Il primo riguarda la tostatura del caffè, con un approfondimento degli stravolgimenti che subisce il chicco sia dal punto di vista chimico che organolettico. Il secondo invece riguarda contaminanti che a mio avviso possono avere implicazioni sulla salute più gravi della caffeina, ovvero furani, IPA, ocratossina A ma soprattutto l’acrilammide. Questa molecola ha suscitato un vero e proprio polverone nel mondo del caffè quando fu denunciata nell'aprile 2002 da un gruppo di ricercatori svedesi dell'Università di Stoccolma e dell'Agenzia Nazionale per il Controllo degli Alimenti la presenza di elevate quantità di acrilammide nei cibi ricchi

Two other species grown on a much smaller scale are Liberica coffee (Coffea liberica) and Excelsa coffee (Coffea dewevrei). For statistical purposes, the two types considered will be Arabica and Robusta, since the demand for the others is not commercially significant.

An antioxidant is a compound that can be scavenged free radicals. Coffee is one of the natural antioxidants. This research aimed to study the antioxidant activity of medium roasted beans of liberica coffee (Coffea liberica) from three different regions by DPPH and CUPRAC methods. To determine total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC), analyze the correlation between TPC and TFC with AAI DPPH and CUPRAC and the correlation between two methods in sample extracts. The sample was extracted by reflux using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and ethanol. AAI DPPH in the range of 0.397- 18.536, while CUPRAC 0.532-4.674. The highest TPC in ethanol extract of liberica coffee from Aceh (22.585 ± 1.610 g GAE/100 g) and the highest TFC in ethyl acetate extract of liberica coffee from Aceh (4.927 ± 0.355 g QE/100 g). TPC of all samples had a positive and significant correlation with AAI DPPH and CUPRAC. AAI DPPH and CUPRAC value gave a significant and positive correlation.

Sun, 2017. Handpresso had gone from strength to strength since its creation in November 2006. Its pioneering handheld espresso machine had been successfully brought to market, with steady sales year on year. The auto espresso machine that had later been developed had generated much interest, leading to a partnership with a major Italian coffee roaster. This in turn had resulted in agreements with two large auto manufacturers.

    Coffee Plant The coffee plant makes a great indoor, outdoor shade, or office plant. Water when dry or the plant will let you know when it droops. Do not let it sit in water so tip over the pot if you over water the plant. Preform the finger test to check for dryness. When the plant is dry about an inch down, water thoroughly. The plant will stay pot bound about two years at which time you will transplant and enjoy a beautiful ornamental plant. See below.

Dopo Roma, Londra e New York i download dei nostri #appunti hanno superato quota 100 e, nel nostro piccolo, riteniamo che sia un grande risultato per questo nuovo e grande progetto fatto unicamente di passione ed amicizia. Abbiamo cercato di capire le vostre esigenze, senza copiare altre guide ed altri lavori nel tentativo di creare qualcosa di semplice ma unico. Di diverso. Se ci siamo riusciti, sta a voi giu- dicarlo, ma grazie al lavoro di Max, Elisa, Anna Lisa, Chiara, Gaja e Simona credo che il risultato sia stato raggiunto. Ognuno, con le sue competenze e la sua esperienza, ha dedicato gran parte del suo tempo libero per la redazione delle prime uscite. Ma la sfida continua e riparte da Torino, antica capitale d’Italia e centro nevralgico di quello che fu il Regno Sabaudo. Ormai l’avrete capito: per ogni sessione di #appunti, inseriamo una fetta d’Italia. Sì. Perchè l’Italia, prima al mondo per patrimonio artistico, viene a volte mes- sa in secondo piano a discapito di Paesi esotici che, pur presenti nei sogni di ognuno di noi, nella reatà dei fatti nemmeno competono con il Bel Paese. Un piccolo inciso, infine, su quanto accaduto negli ultimi mesi: purtroppo, al momento dell’uscita riguar- dante i nostri #appunti su Londra, la città del Big Ben è stata colpita dall’ennesimo attacco terroristico.
