Description

Abstract

This research work is on The physico-chemical and sensory characteristics of fruit juice produced from water melon (Citrillis Salatir) and pineapple (Ananas Comosus). Physico–chemical sensory and characteristics of fruit juice produced from watermelon and pineapple juice were carried out. From the physicochemical analysis with pineapple juice, it has a PH value of 3.9% specific gravity value of 1.04% total soluble solids of 11.30% and titrable acidity of 0.3%. Juice produced with watermelon has titrable acidity of 0.37% total soluble solids value of 12.35% PH value of 4.0% and specific gravity of 1.05%. Juice produce with pineapple and watermelon has PH value of 7.9%, specific gravity of 2.09% total soluble solids of 23.65% and titratable acidity of 0.67%. From the sensory analysis with pineapple (AOA) it has a taste of 3% has flavour of 3.25% has colour of 2% and sweetness of 2.75%. Juice produced with watermelon (AOB) has a taste of 2.75% a colour of 1.75% and has a sweetness of 3%. Juice produced with pineapple and watermelon (AOC) has a taste of 3% has a flavour of 3.5 has a colour of 1.75% and has a sweetness of 3.25%.
