Abstract
This work aimed to understand and evaluate the impacts of postharvest procedures on physicochemical characteristics and bioactive compounds (CQAs and alkaloids) of green bean and roasted bean. Arabica green bean of kalosi Enrekang was obtained from different procedures: natural, honey and full-washed, and followed with medium roasting, powdered, and extracted using boiling water. A single-factor ANOVA and t-test was arranged to evaluate data, and OPLS-DA was applied to produce mapping. As the results, full washed processed green beans demonstrated a high lightness, while honey processed green beans showed a high chromaticity a*. Natural processed green beans contained a high CQAs, whereas honey processed green beans contained the highest quantity of alkaloids. In terms of caffeine, natural and honey processed green beans exhibited equal levels. In addition, honey roasted beans contained a high content of 3-CQA and 4-CQA, while full-washed processed roasted beans contained a high level of theobromine. The roasting process was reported to reduce the content of total CQAs and alkaloids.
