Kecombrang flower has benefits as an antioxidant and antimicrobial. This capability can be maximized by processing through drying and liquid extraction. In the drying and extraction of liquid, the temperature and time that is not right can affect the content of bioactive components of the product. This study aims to determine the quality of bioactive components of powder and liquid extract of kecombrang flowers quantitatively and qualitatively based on temperature and time. The experimental design used in kecombrang flower powder is a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 9 treatment and 3 replication as long as the liquid extract of kecombrang flowers using the Responsse Surface Method (RSM) method with Expert Design 10 software. Central Composit Design (CCD) produced 13 optimization formulas. Factors that were tested on drying are 50°C, 60°C, 70°C, and time is 4, 5 and 6 hours. Liquid extraction temperature is 40oC, 50oC, 60oC and time is 3, 4 and 5 hours. Based on the results of the study the highest total phenol simplisia and liquid extract of kecombrang flowers namely 27.93 TAE1100 g sample and 64.458 mg TAEI 100 g. The highest total of flavonoids is simplicia and liquid extract of kecombrang flower which is 2.073 QE1100 g sample and 35.120 mg QE1100 g and pH value (3.9). The compounds in the optimum formula product are phenolic, flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids and tannins.
