Effect of storage temperatures treatment of coconut flesh (Cocos nucifera L.) based on the quality of coconut milk

Abstract Coconut plant ( Cocos nucifera ) is one of the potential industrial plants and has an important role both in terms nutrition economy Indonesia. The number coconut Indonesia used by community, which as a raw material for making milk. milk obtained from extract old flesh that been grated, either with addition or without water, this white liquid emulsion oil water. contains 230 kilocalories consists 67.5% 23.8% total fat, 5.54% carbohydrates, 2.29% protein 0.70% ash. During production, needs to undergo pretreatment homogeneous high-speed shear. Generally, type can improve stability This be done because system very easily unstable after thawing. Temperature pretreatmentin main factor influences quality produced. study was conducted analyze changes it storage before being grated squeezed into knowing temperature most appropriate method obtain best using Multiple Attribute Zeleny. research carried out stages including preparation tools materials, starting cleaning coconut, then giving 3 treatments cold temperatures (6°C ± 2°C) freezing (-16°C stored 24 hours room (27°C time. Then continued testing parameters treatment manufacture use at form 22% yield, 30.59% water content, pH 6.27, Viscosity 86.70 cP.
