Othman Abdul Samah, . and Mohd Fared Puteh, . and Jinap Selamat, . (1990) Small scale cocoa fermentation inoculated with Acetobacter xylinum. [Proceedings Paper]
Abstract
Pulp from treated beans showed less acidity pH 5.33 than normal beans pH 5.0 during 6 days fermentation. Malaysian cocoa beans showed relatively low flavour yield compared to Ghanian control due to relatively strong acidification with acetic acid thus becoming astringent and bitter. The flavour attributed to the sun-dried products from Acetobacter xylinum inoculation showed the potential to improve the flavour of Malaysian cocoa beans bringing it closer to that of the Ghanian.
