Abstract: | In this research, the color change kinetics of the Akbadem variety during roasting and storage processes was investigated. The roasting process was carried out at three different temperatures (150, 160, and 170°C) and four different times 10, 20, 30, and 40 min. Then, roasted samples were separated in two groups and stored for 6 months in 4 and 22°C. All of the color parameters reactions during roasting and storage took place according to first order reaction kinetics. L- and hue angle-values tended to decrease linear significantly during roasting. The L-values of Akbadem samples roasted at 150, 160,and 170°C for 40 min was determined as 52.34 ± 2.53, 47.96 ± 1.35, and 43.17 ± 0.09, respectively. The highest Ea-value was determined on the L-value as 14.80 ± 4.26. The a, b, ΔE, metric chroma (C), and metric saturation (S) values increased during roasting. L-, C-, a-, b-, and S-values tended to decrease linear significantly during storage. The L-, a-, and b-values of Akbadem samples which were roasted at 170°C and stored at 4°C for 6 months were decreased from 43.17 ± 0.09, 14.25 ± 0.026, and 29.53 ± 0.06 to 34.91 ± 0.13, 10.06 ± 0.15, and 15.93 ± 0.12, respectively. According to sensory analysis, the panelists gave low scores as taste (1.9 ± 0.88), color (2.1 ± 0.57), and flavor (2.4 ± 0.7) for Akbadem samples roasted at 170°C for 40 min. ΔE was increased during storage Ea-values were decreased during roasting and storage at 4 and 22°C for 6 months. |
