Abstract

Campbell grape juice was processed at different temperatures (60, 70, 80 and 90C) and different times (30, 45 and 60 min), and evaluated for quality components and sensorial properties. The grapes were crushed, added with enzyme, heated, and pressed; then the juice was cold stabilized, filtered and pasteurized. The samples showed an increase in pH and a decrease in titratable acidity. Sugar/acid ratio and total soluble solids increased until 80C then decreased when 90C was reached. A slight increase in L* and b* values and a decrease in a* color values were also shown. Significant differences were mostly observed between processing temperatures than between processing times. Increasing processing temperature enhances the total phenolics, total anthocyanin and total flavonoid contents, and % radical scavenging activity of the juice until 80C but declined when the temperature reached 90C. Sensory evaluation showed that the preferred time-temperature combination for processing Campbell juice is between 70 and 80C for 30-45 min. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS Campbell Early (V. labrusca B.) is one of the major table grapes in Korea and overproduction of this grape variety in Korean market calls for an alternative product in which excess grapes can be utilized. This study is focused on the determination of the effects of processing time and temperature on the quality components of Campbell grape juice. The results can be a guide to have a processing method that can be used in producing Campbell grape juice with good sensory properties and high bioactive compounds
