UJI ALAT PENGUPAS KULIT KOPI MEKANIS
ABSTRACT: Equipment test is
one of agricultural processing. The research was aimed to test Arabica coffee
from 3different origin which is appropriated
with Mechanical Coffee
Pulper Equipment on their
equipment capacity, percentage
of damage coffee, percentage of
unpulped coffee, percentage of coffee bean in skin drain and percentage of
skin in bean pipe. The research was
conducted from September
to October 2013
in Agriculture Engineering
Laboratory. Agriculture Faculty, Sumatera Utara University, Medan,
using non-factorial completely randomized design (CRD). The parameters measured
were equipment capacity, percentage of unpulped coffee, percentage of damage
coffee, percentage of coffee bean in drain skin, and percentage of skin in skin
pipe.Theresults showed that equipment capacity was 119,80 kg/hr, 157,00 kg/hr and 160,86 kg/hr.
percentage was unpulped coffee of 16,50%, 6,83% and 15,50%, percentage of
damage coffee was 5,30%,6,90% and 7,90%, percentage of coffee bean in skin
drain was 3,20%, 4,76%, and 4,96%, percentage of skin in pipe bean was 2,93%,
2,50%, and 3,06% respectively.
