ABSTRACT
Taro (Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott) is one of the tubers that are widely grown in Indonesia.
Taro tubers are usually used as food. To increase the quality value of taro tubers, processing
the taro tubers into flour by drying. Drying is the process of heat transfer from the dryer and
water diffusion (mass transfer) of the dried material. This study aims to determine the effect of
temperature and drying time on yield and chemical properties of taro root flour (moisture, ash,
carbohydrates and fat content). The process of making flour begins with peeling taro, washing
taro using water, slicing taro, soaking in salt solution (NaCl), soaking in sodium metabisulfite
solution (Na2S2O5), drying, crushing, sifting. Soaking in a solution of sodium metabisulfite
(Na2S2O5) with a solution concentration of 0 ppm, 500 ppm, 1000 ppm and 1500 ppm was
carried out to determine the effect of sodium metabisulfite concentration on the color of the
flour produced. The results showed that the sodium metabisulfite solution with a concentration
of 1500 ppm produced a brighter color. The drying process is carried out at various drying
temperatures of 50oC, 60oC, 70oC and the drying time is 6 hours, 7 hours, 8 hours. The results
showed that the temperature and drying time had an effect on the chemical properties of taro
tuber flour. The yield average value obtained was 19.77% and the best chemical properties
test results of taro tuber flour were at 70 oC and 8 hours, namely 3.2% moisture content, 1.22%
ash content, 6 carbohydrate content, 21% and fat content of 0.54%.
Keywords: characteristics, drying, yield, flour, taro tubers
