PRELIMINARY
Nata de Coco is a dessert ( desert ) . Nata de Coco is
foods that contain lots of fiber , cellulose-containing high levels
health benefits in aiding digestion
Low calorie content results in Nata de Coco is an appropriate
consideration
Nata de Coco product as eating a diet. In terms of the food's
appearance
have a high aesthetic value, appearance somewhat translucent white
color, chewy texture,
fresh scent. With the appearance of the nata as a food desert has
high attraction. From an economic point of production nata de coco
promising value
added. Uning (1974) revealed that the making of nata enriched with
vitamins and minerals will enhance the nutritional value of these
products.
Nata de Coco formed by species of acetic acid bacteria on the
surface of the liquid
containing sugar, fruit juice, or other plant extracts (Lapuz et
al., 1967).

Some species, including acetic acid bacteria can form cellulose, but
has been the most studied is the A. xylinum (Swissa et al., 1980).
bacterium
A. xylinum including the genus Acetobacter (Ley & Frateur, 1974).
Bacteria A. xylinum
are Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped short or cocci (Moat, 1986;
Forng et
al., 1989).
Utilization of waste oil processing in the form of coconut water is
a great way
optimize the use of coconut. Waste coconut water is good enough to
use
for substrate manufacture Nata de Coco. In coconut water there are
various nutrients
producing bacteria can be used Nata de Coco. The nutrients contained
in water
coconut, among others: 1.28% sucrose sugar, mineral resources, such
as; Mg2 +
3.54 gr / l (woodroof, 1972, Pracaya 1982), as well as the factors
supporting growth
(Growth promoting factor) is a compound that can boost growth
nata-producing bacteria (A. xylinum) (Lapus et al., 1967). The
presence of sucrose sugar in water
oil will be exploited by A. xylinum as a source of energy, and
resources
carbon to form the metabolites of which is cellulose
forming Nata de Coco. Enhancer compound microbial growth (growth
promoting
factor) will increase the growth of microbes, whereas the presence
of minerals in
substrate will help increase the activity of kinase enzyme in the
metabolism in
in A. xylinum cells to produce cellulose.
With perrtimbangan above, the utilization of waste coconut water is
efforts to use waste into products that have added value.

How to prepare substrates for the manufacture of Nata de Coco with
raw water
Coconut is as follows; coconut water obtained from screened market
with
using a filter cloth clean. To the coconut water was added sucrose
(table sugar)
as much as 10% (w / v). Sugar added while heated, stirred until
homogeneous.
Urea (5 grams of urea per 1 liter of coconut water sugared prepared)
was added and stirred while simmer. The substrate is cooled, then
added
glacial acetate acid (vinegar) as much as 2% or 25% vinegar kitchen
(16 ml acid
acetate for every 1 liter of coconut water). Substrates sterilized
by means inclusion in
outoclave at a temperature of 121 C, a pressure of 2 atm, for 15
minutes (or boil for 15
minute)
Preparation starter is as follows: the substrate sterilized by
outoclave
or by boil for 15 minutes. Once cool approximately 40 oC milk, as
much as
300 ml was added to sterile bottles of 500 ml volume. Substrate in a
sterile bottle
inoculated (planted seedlings A. xylinum bacteria) by 2 ose
(approximately 2 match knob
6
fire), seeds of A. xylinum. The substrate is shaken, preferably
using a shaker
speed of 140 rpm (Masaoka, et al., 1993) (manually shaken out every
2-4 hours).
Starter grown for 2 days at room temperature.
Fermentation
Fermentation is a process for converting a compound contained in
substrates by microbes (kulture) eg sugar compounds into other forms
(eg
cellulose / Nata de Coco), either the solution process or the
process of formation

in a situation of aerobic and anaerobic. Thus the fermentation

process can be a process
catabolism and anabolism process.
Substrate fermentation of coconut water that had been prepared
process
as follows; substrates coconut water or sterilized using outoclave
by way simmer for 15 minutes. Substrtat cooled to 40 C.
Substrate put on a sterile tray or basin with a surface width,
with a substrate depth of approximately 5 cm. Substrate inoculated
using
starter or seeds as much as 10% (v / v). The substrate is then
stirred flat, covered with
using gauze. The trays were incubated or cured by means placed at
a clean place, protected from dust, covered with a clean cloth to
avoid contamination. Incubation was performed for 10-15 days, at a
temperature
room. In the fermentation stage is not to be shaken. At the age of
10-15 days can nata
harvested.
Processing Nata de Coco
Nata de Coco harvested at 10-15 days , in sheet form
with a thickness of 1 - 1.5 cm . Nata de Coco washed with clean
water ,
betuk sliced into cubes , washed with clean water . Nata de Coco
soaked
in water for 2-3 days . In order for the sour taste Nata de Coco
missing need to be boiled
up for 10 minutes . Up to this point has been generated Nata de Coco
insipidity .
To produce Nata de Coco is ready for consumption which have a sweet
taste
with a particular flavor needs to be done further process . Nata de
Coco boiled in water
sugary . Preparation of sugared water by adding sugar 500 gr to
7
in 5 liters of water is added vanilla flavor or another agent to
produce Valour
which are desired. Pieces Nata de Coco cubes into sugared water
dumasukkan
The next boil for 15 minutes . Nata de Coco didingankan and
ready to be consumed .
