Abstract
Coffee is one of the most consumed beverages worldwide. Espírito Santo is the largest Brazilian producer of conilon coffee, and invested in the creation of new cultivars, such as "Conquista ES8152", launched in 2019. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the effects of maturation and roasting on the chemical and sensorial composition of the new conilon coffee cultivar "Conquista ES8152". The coffee was harvested containing 3 different percentages of ripe fruits: 60%, 80%, and 100%, and roasted at 3 different degrees of roasting: light, medium, and dark, to evaluate the moisture and ash content, yield of soluble extract, volatile compound profile, chlorogenic acid and caffeine content, and sensory profile. "Conquista ES8152" coffee has a moisture content between 1.38 and 2.62%; ash between 4.34 and 4.72%; and yield between 30.7 and 35.8%. Sensory scores ranged between 75 and 80 and the majority of volatile compounds belong to the pyrazine, phenol, furan, and pyrrole groups. The content of total chlorogenic acids was drastically reduced by roasting, with values between 2.40 and 9.33%, with 3-caffeoylquinic acid being the majority. Caffeine was not influenced by either maturation or roasting, with values between 2.16 and 2.41%. The volatile compounds furfural, 5-methylfurfural, and 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine were positively correlated with the evaluated sensory attributes and 5-methylfurfural was the only one significantly correlated with all attributes. Ethylpyrazine, furfuryl acetate, 1-furfurylpyrrole, 4-ethyl-2-methoxyphenol, and difurfuryl ether were negatively correlated. The stripping did not affect the quality and composition of this new cultivar, however, the roasting caused changes in both the chemical and sensorial profiles, appropriately indicated by the principal component analysis.
