Abstract

The quality of conilon coffee can be influenced by crop management and postharvest processing. Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluate the quality of pulped and natural conilon coffee subjected to drying methods in electric hybrid solar-electric dryer (HSED), on a patio drying (PD), and suspended patio drying (SPD). The water content, specific mass, pH, electrical conductivity, titratable total acidity and total soluble solids and sensory analysis. The physicalchemical characterization presented variations in the different types of coffee (natural and pulped) and in the drying time (before and after). However, drying in the HSED, PD, and SPD maintained the physicochemical characteristics of the desirable coffee beans for sale to the final consumer. From the results it was possible to conclude that the SHSE can be an alternative to the systems conventional drying, mainly by reducing the drying time.
