Karakteristik Kimia dan Organoleptik Minuman Instan Madu Bubuk dengan Penambahan Kerabang Telur sebagai Sumber Kalsium

Abstract

Egg shell has a big potential about its calcium carbonate contents, approximately 94% from total weight of it. Therefore it can be used as food additive to increase human nutrition values, especially in calcium elements. The Objective of this research was to create high calcium honey powder instant beverage from honey powder (HP), egg shell meal (EM), , citric acid (CA) and sucrose (S). This research was also conducted to evaluate chemical characteristic and costumer’s acceptability of the product. This research used Completely Randomized Design with three level formulations and four replications. The formulations were (A) 45% HP, 25% S, 17% CA, 13% EM; (B) 50% HP, 25% S, 14% CA, 11% EM dan (C) 55% HP, 25% S, 11% CA, 9% EM. The result showed that formulations didn’t significantly effected water content (4,59%), titrated total acid (16ml NaOH 0,1N/g) and calcium content (221mg/100g), but significantly effected ash content (5,4–7,6%). The colour of powder, taste of sparkle, texture and general perception of the three honey powder instant were not different. On the hand, the colour of solution and taste of acid were different and the panelist liked the A formulation beverage more than the others.
