Description
Summary:Patik mas is a type of wild plant that is rarely used and is often considered a pest, but its distribution is quite wide and has functional benefits for health. Patik mas leaf tea is an innovation to make it easier to consume. This study is interested in knowing the appropriate temperature and drying time on patik mas leaves, with variations in temperature treatments of 50°C and 60°C and drying time of 2, 3, and 4 hours. Yield and color are test parameters on the physical properties of patik mas leaf tea. The results showed that the drying time of 4 hours was significantly different from the drying time of 2 and 3 hours, the best treatment at a temperature of 60oC and a drying time of 3 hours with the lowest average yield value. The results of the color values L* a* b* (P>0.05) showed no significant effect on all samples. The color was produced by patik mas leaves for (L) tends to be bright and for colors (a) and (b) the temperature of 50oC has a lower value than the temperature of 60oC so that the resulting color is more yellow (yellowish-red). These results can be used as guidelines in the development of patik mas leaf tea products.
