Abstract

Drying the coconut meat is one of the process in the coconut oil industry. The objective of this research was to evaluate the moisture content that measured by grain moisture meter (GMM), and it was compared to gravimetric results. Grated coconut meat was put into the dryer that carried out at 80°, 85°, 90°, 95°, and 100°C. It needed 150 to 110 minutes until zero moisture content. Measuring the moisture content of grain particles (i.e. grated coconut meat) by Grain Moisture Meter (GMM) is one of a simple way to understand how much the real time moisture content, but it must be calibrated with gravimetric method.
