ABSTRACT
This research has investigated the characterization of robusta coffee in dry and wet
proses from local producer brand Kopi Ketakasi located in Silo, Jember. Characterization is
about chemical change in coffee resulting from dry or wet processing and roasting, it include
volatile components, nitrogen total and percent lipid in coffee. Extraction method for obtaining
essential oil to know what the volatile components is steam distillation, continued with GC-MS
characterization. The nitrogen total from coffee were carried out by Kjehdahl method. Lipid
extraction from coffee was carried out using Soxhlet method with petroleum ether as the
solvent. The result show that volatile components are not conducted with literature, it contains
high boiling point compound mostly like long chain hydrocarbon also fatty acids and their
derivatives. The total nitrogen from dry process coffee has the bigger percentage from wet
process, but not much different from the effect of roasting process. Percent lipid from dry
processing coffee has the higher result from the wet, roasting process makes the percent lipid
increase in both.

INTRIDUCTION
Coffee is one of plant that has long been cultivated, become a lead commodity and has
high economic value in Indonesia (Rahardjo, 2012). Indonesia is ranked fourth from 10
countries that has biggest coffee production. Jember city has a major contribution of coffee
production in Indonesia and coffee became one of the leading commodities in this district. In
2013, coffee production in Jember city was recorded at 2,516 tons in one year with 733 Kg / Ha
productivity and the number of coffee farmers 15,866 households (Directorate General of
Plantations 2014).
The process of coffee cherry to be coffee beans in general through two types of
processing techniques, namely dry and wet processing. Dry coffee processing through the
process of fruit solving, drying, huller and sorting seeds, while processing coffee in a wet
manner through a process of soaking with water (fermentation) before the process of fruit
solving. Wet processing coffee through the stage of sorting cherry at the beginning of the
processing, it only using red cherry (perfectly mature). Meanwhile the dry processing coffee
using coffee cherry with various maturity phases without the sorting process. Dry processing
produces coffee with a buttery and nutty flavor, while wet processing produces coffee with a
fruity, flora and caramel taste (Lee et al; 2015).
The processing of coffee beans which have the most influence on the formation of flavor
and aroma of coffee products is the roasting process (Franca et al., 2009). The volatile
components of coffee, affect the aroma that has the most important role in showing the quality
of coffee (Andueza et al; 2003). Roasted coffee contains more than 950 volatile compounds
(Farah, 2012). Volatile compounds in roasted coffee are generally furan and piran, pirazin,
pyrrole, ketones, phenols, hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, acids and anhydrides, esters,
lactones, tiophen, oxazole, thiazoles, pyridin, amines, and various sulfur and compound
contents nitrogen (Franca et al; 2009). Research on volatile coffee compounds using steam
distillation method was carried out by Vitzthum et al (1976), Kumuzawa and Masuda (2003) and
also carried out by Stoffelsma et al., (1968). GC-MS is a method of separating organic
compounds that combines two methods of compound analysis, namely gas chromatography
(GC) to analyze the number of compounds quantitatively and mass spectrometry (MS) to
analyze the molecular structure of compound analytes (Pavia, 2006). The advantage of GC-MS
analysis is its high sensitivity and ability to analyze various compounds (Fowlis, 1998).
The non-volatile components of roasted coffee are alkaloids (caffeine, trigonelline),
chlorogenic acid, carboxylic acids, carbohydrates and polysaccharides, lipids, proteins,
pigments, melanoidins, and minerals (Buffo and Cardelli, 2004). Components that contain
nitrogen are the main compounds which have an important influence in providing coffee flavor.
Three main sources of nitrogen-containing compounds in coffee are caffeine, trigonelline and
protein (Underwood and Deatherage, 1952). Types of amino acids in coffee include alanine,
arginine, aspartic acid, asparagine, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, 3-methylhistidine,
isoleucine, leucine, lysine, proline, serine, tyrosine, valine and triptopane (Illy and Viani, 1995).
Trigonelline is an alkaloid compound which is a material of its derivative compound, nicotinic
acid which changes during the roasting process. Nicotinic acid compounds give a typical bitter
taste to coffee. Research on the effect of coffee roasting on trigonelline and nicotinic acid
concentrations in coffee has been carried out by Taguchi et al., (1985). Protein in coffee is an
ingredient of degradation and formation changes that occur during roasting (Shibamoto, 1983).
This reaction occurs between free amino acids and reducing sugars. This reaction has a
contribution to the formation of taste (Janzen, 2010). The Kjeldahl method is one of the common
methods used to determine total nitrogen levels (Winarno, 2004).
The lipid fraction in roasted coffee contains coffee oil that carries the volatile flavor in
coffee and vitamins that dissolve in lipids, this content contributes to the texture of the flavor of
coffee (Oestreich-Janzen, 2010). The composition of lipids in coffee are triglycerides, sterols,
tocopherols, diterpene and phospholipids. Lipid in coffee serves as a creator of flavor in
steeping, lipid levels in robusta coffee (green bean) is about 10% on average (Janzen, 2010).
Analysis of total lipid content using the Soxhlet method according to the AOAC method.
Research by Speer and Kolling (2006) used petroleum ether solvents to determine the lipid
fraction in coffee beans.
Based on the above background, an analysis of volatile component content, N-total
content and lipid content of dry and wet processed coffee, those analysis also applied for green
bean and roasting coffee. The extraction method of volatile compounds used is steam distillation
in combination with solvent extraction which will then be analyzed using GC-MS. The total N-
level analysis will be carried out using the Kjehdhal method and the lipid level analysis uses the
Soxhlet method. The aim of this research is to study the characteristics of non-roasted and
roasted robusta on dry and wet processing coffee beans involve volatile components, total N-
level and lipid level contained therein.

Material Preparation
Dry and wet processing robusta coffee used in green bean and roasted. Each coffee
bean is smoothed into coffee grounds. This coffee powder is then sieved with a 35 mesh sieve.
Distillation
Destruction results cooled down then it were added to 25.0 mL of distilled water and
placed on a set of distillation devices. Erlenmeyer is prepared and filled with 10.0 mL 4%
H3BO3 and 6 drops of methyl blue-blue indicator so that the solution is blue. 40% NaOH was
added in a Kjeldahl flask until the mixture was alkaline (brownish) just before it was distilled then
the distillation was done until the distillate volume filled the connecting pipe and changed the
blue color of H3BO3 to green. The results of the distillation are then titrated.
Titration
Samples and blanks were then titrated with standardized 0.0800 M HCl to endpoints..
Total N levels can be obtained according to the formula% N (AOAC, 2001). This treatment was
carried out again on all samples, each repeated 3 times.

CONCLUSION
The conclusion obtained based on the research that has been carried out is the results
of GC-MS analysis showed that non-roasted and roasted dry coffee were 21 and 14 compounds
respectively, which were dominated by long-chain alkanes and carboxylic acids, whereas for
non-roasted wet coffee and roasted successively 30 and 21 compounds. Identified compounds
are not only volatile compounds, but also non-volatile compounds. N-total levels of non-roasted
and roasted dried coffee were respectively 2.68% and 2.65%, while those in non-roasted and
roasted coffee were 2.57% and 2.53% respectively. Lipid levels obtained in non-roasted dry
coffee were 11.34% and experienced an increase in roasted coffee, the value obtained was
16.41%. Lipid content in non roasted wet coffee is 7.7% and roasted is 24.2%.
