Factor – a 10% mixer giving extra aroma and WOW factor True Barako coffee – found only in the Batangas Mid- highlands British Dictionary definitions for terroir - noun 1. (winemaking) the combination of factors, including soil, climate, and environment, that gives a wine its distinctive character Word Origin - literally: soil or land (tierra in Spanish) the environmental conditions, especially soil and climate, in which grapes are grown and that give a wine its unique flavor and aroma: the high quality of the region’s terroir. Also called goût de terroir [goo duh ter-wahr, gooduh ter-war] - the unique flavor and aroma of a wine that is attributed to the growing environment of the grapes. Terroir: soil, ecology, environment and process Appellation system in wines and cheeses: - Environmental and biological, looking at longstanding traditions (Do communities have a history of making this wine or cheese?), - General utility of a crop or food (Is it grown or consumed widely by the community?) - Shared process (Are wines or cheeses made the same way using the same name?). Contemporary examples Current production methods in U.S., although correct, abandon the entire idea of terroir and regionality. Emphasis on terroir, the reputation of Burgundy owes much of its grace and fortitude to the humble city of Dijon. Koshihikari japonica rice from Niigata Prefecture, Japan Eritrean or Red Sea Salt, Fleur de Sel Terroir is the basis of the French wine Appellation d‘Origine Contrôlée (AOC) system, which is a model for wine appellation and regulation in France and around the world. Appellation of "unique wines from a unique area“ may be applied to the “unique Batangas Barako coffee from a unique Batangas Mid-highlands.” Climate Soil type Geomorphology – natural landscape features like mountains, valleys and bodies of water which affect how the climate interacts with the region and includes elevation of the coffee plantation location. Other plants growing around the coffee plantations Human intervention – method of brewing; traditional earthen pot, slow and low-heat from firewood In other words, Lipa and the Batangas Mid-highlands have unique terroir for the best Barako coffee that stands out above other Liberica coffees Zambales and Guimaras mango, lanzones Paete, Pinya Calauan, Pinya Camarines Norte, Narra Isabela, Dinolores upland rice or Quezon rice, Mindoro rice, Urarong Liliw (actually grown in Rizal, Laguna claimed to be better than uraro arrowroot grown in Marinduque), Panglao (Bohol) ube Kinampay, Batangas horse, Manok Batangas, etc. Batangas Barako coffee – unique taste and aroma and and has a “kick” Continuing programs by participating LGUs - Lipa City, Mataas na Kahoy, San Jose, Cuenca, Balete, Malvar and Tanauan City 1.

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.

  • Coffee Plant the Coffee Plant Makes a Great Indoor, Outdoor Shade, Or Office Plant
    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.

  • Understanding the Formation of CO2 and Its Degassing Behaviours in Coffee
    Understanding the Formation of CO2 and Its Degassing Behaviours in Coffee by Xiuju Wang A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Food Science Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Xiuju Wang, May, 2014 ABSTRACT UNDERSTANDING THE FORMATION OF CO2 AND ITS DEGASSING BEHAVIOURS IN COFFEE Xiuju Wang Advisor: University of Guelph, 2014 Professor Loong-Tak Lim In the present study, the effect of roasting temperature-time conditions on residual CO2 content and its degassing behaviours in roasted coffee was investigated. The results show that the residual CO2 content in the roasted coffee beans was only dependent on the degree of roast and independent on the roasting temperature applied. However, CO2 degassing was shown significantly faster (p<0.05) in roasted coffee processed with high- temperature-short-time (HTST) than those roasted with low-temperature-long-time (LTLT) process. Moreover, the CO2 degassing rate increased with the degree of roast. CO2 degassing in ground coffee was significantly faster than in whole beans with the rate highly dependent on the grind size and roasting temperature, but less dependent on the degree of roast. CO2 degassing rate increased with the increasing of environmental temperature and relative humidity. Although CO2 degassing has been a challenging problem in the coffee industry for decades, there is still no clear understanding of precursors of CO2. In the present study, the hypothesis of “chlorogenic acid (CGA) is the principal precursor of CO2” was tested. Although strong negative linear correlation (R2>0.9) between total CGA and residual CO2 content during coffee roasting was detected, and vanishing of IR bands of the C=O group in caffeic acid and quinic acid moieties during heating of pure CGA at coffee roasting temperature was observed, the quantification analysis of CO2 generation from pure CGA heating indicated only ~ 8% yields at 230°C, which led us to conclude that CGA was one of the CO2 precursors but not the principal one.

  • Physical Properties of Liberica Coffee (Coffea Liberica) Berries and Beans
    Pertanika J. Sci. & Technol. 22 (1): 65 - 79 (2014) SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY Journal homepage: http://www.pertanika.upm.edu.my/ Physical Properties of Liberica Coffee (Coffea liberica) Berries and Beans Ismail, I.*, Anuar, M. S. and Shamsudin, R. Department of Process and Food Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Universiti Putra Malaysia, 43400 Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia ABSTRACT Liberica coffee is the most important coffee species grown in Malaysia. However, there is little or no research at all conducted on coffee berries and green coffee beans since the plant itself is a low income crop in Malaysia. Therefore, research on Malaysian Liberica coffee can help to increase the knowledge of coffee farmers and coffee manufacturers in the processing and handling of the coffee. Physical properties of Liberica coffee berries and beans were investigated the current study. The properties investigated include the size, mass, density, coefficient of friction, angle of repose, fracture force and colour. In comparison to Arabica and Robusta coffee, Liberica coffee has the biggest size, mass, true density and fracture force values but were lower in bulk density in both berries and beans. The Liberica berries and beans were found to be orange-ish and yellowish colour respectively. Angle of repose was low and approximately similar in berries and beans while jute fibre gave the highest friction to both Liberica berries and beans. Keywords: Coffee bean, Liberica, physical properties INTRODUCTION essence, coffee syrup and coffee caramel Coffee is one of the most popular beverages (Zainun 1991), which are widely utilised in consumed around the world. Besides coffee the confectionary industry. The major coffee based beverages, coffee beans are also used species planted and traded around the world to produce other products such as coffee are Arabica (80%) and Robusta (20%), while the minor species are Liberica and Excelsa which accounts for less than 1% (Wintgens, Article history: Received: 20 May 2011 2009).
