Abstract

  Indonesia is the fourth largest coffee-producing country in the world, following Brazil, Vietnam, and Colombia. One of the coffee-producing regions is the Province of Jambi, with development centers located in Kerinci Regency and the City of Sungai Penuh. However, the processed products are still limited to raw coffee beans, commonly referred to as green beans, with only a small portion reaching the processing stage even though there are still many coffee ingredients that have high nutritional contents that are beneficial for health, such as caffeine, chlorogenic acid, fat, amino acid, organic acid, carbohydrates, proteins, and minerals, fibers, and vitamin C. This study aims to determine the nutritional content of robusta coffee cascara by conducting proximate analysis and vitamin C content testing. The proximate analysis was performed using the SNI 01-2891-1992 method, and the determination of vitamin C levels was carried out using UV-Vis Spectrophotometer with ascorbic acid used as a reference. The results showed that dried robusta coffee cascara contains 6.20% moisture, 7.33% ash, 6.54% carbohydrates, 1.07% fat, 4.20% protein, and 0.1538% w/w vitamin C, equivalent to 153.8 mg/100 g.
