The objective of the current study was to evaluate the effects of roasting methods on volatile flavor compounds of boricha using solvent-assisted flavor evaporation-gas chromatography (GC)-mass spectrometry and GC-olfactometry. The barley roasting methods tested were air roasting (AR), drum roasting (DR), and air/drum roasting (ADR). Twenty, twenty-one, and eighteen aroma-active compounds were detected in the products of AR, DR, and ADR, respectively. Guaiacol (smoky), 2-acetylpyrazine (almond-like), and furfuryl alcohol (burnt sugar-like) were detected as high intensity aroma-active compounds. Intensities of most aroma-active compounds produced by the DR method were higher. On the other hand, aroma intensities of phenols produced by the AR method, such as guaiacol and 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol (curry-like), tended to be stronger. Aroma characteristics of phenols are not considered to be desirable for boricha. Although roasting time for DR was longer than that for AR, DR may be an effective barley roasting method for enhancing desirable aroma characteristics of boricha.

This study was performed to determine the optimal roasting temperature of mung beans for enhancement of antioxidative activities. Mung beans were roasted various roasting temperatures ($90{\sim}120^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes), after which physicochemical compositions were determined. Variations in pH from 6.1 to 6.3, and reducing sugar content was highest in raw mung beans. Moisture decreased with increasing roasting temperature, whereas crude fat, crude ash, crude protein and carbohydrate contents showed no significant differences according to roasting temperature. The highest total phenol and flavonoid contents were under roasting conditions of $110^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes. The highest DPPH radical, ABTS radical, and xanthine oxidase inhibitory activities were under conditions of $110^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes. From these results, optimal roasting temperature of mung beans as a functional food resource was 110.

This study was conducted to determine the optimal roasting temperature (90, 100, 110, and 120; fixed time of 20 minutes) of small black coffee beans under various roasting conditions. The roasting temperature range and fixed time were the same as our preceding study. After roasting, the general composition, isoflavone contents, and antioxidant activities were measured. As the results of the proximate composition analysis of small black beans according to roasting conditions, only moisture decreased among them, whereas other general compositions were not affected. The DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities were the highest at a roasting temperature of $120^{\circ}C$. Total polyphenol and total flavonoid contents were also highest at $120^{\circ}C$. Isoflavone contents showed a positive correlation with DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, as well as total phenol and flavonoid contents. These results suggest that the optimal roasting conditions of small black beans were determined to be $120^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes.

The present study aimed to investigate the biological activities and nutritional contents of extracts from three types of edible mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus, P. eryngii, and Hericium erinaceus) following different roasting treatments. Roasting by a household multi-oven (HR60) decreased the total polyphenol contents, as well as DPPH radical scavenging and nitrite scavenging activities compared with the fresh samples, and no significant difference was observed between the different roasting times. As a result of rotary drum roasting (CR) treatment, we could observe a decrease in the DPPH radical scavenging activity in all roasted mushroom samples compared with the fresh samples, whereas nitrite scavenging activity increased in roasted P. eryngii and H. erinaceus. Additionally, total polyphenol contents increased significantly in roasted H. erinaceus. In each roasted sample dried by HR60 and CR, the amount of palatable-taste amino acids (e.g., glutamic acid) and sweet-taste amino acids, including glycine, serine, alanine, and threonine, increased in P. ostreatus, whereas the amount of bitter amino acids, including leucine, isoleucine, histidine, valine, and methionine, decreased compared with the fresh samples. In P. eryngii and H. erinaceus samples, we also observed an increase in the amount of palatable and sweet-taste amino acids upon the roasting treatments; however, the amount of bitter amino acids increased simultaneously following the roasting treatments. These results suggest that CR treatment is more effective in increasing the biological activities and nutritional contents, such as palatable and sweet-taste amino acids, compared with HR60 treatment.

As a calorie supplement for the elderly, functional beverages based on black sesame were prepared with different roasting times (0, 10, 15, and 20 min for R-0, R-10, R-15, and R-20, respectively), and their properties were compared. The total calorie content of the beverage was adjusted to match that of half a meal to meet the nutritional requirements of the elderly. The suspension stability of all samples was maintained for 5 day by the addition of xanthan gum. Regarding the color of the beverage, L* and a* values decreased, whereas b* increased with the increase in black sesame roasting time. Among the samples, the total lignan content did not change, except for R-20, which showed a significantly lower value than the others. Total polyphenol content significantly increased with roasting time, reaching the maximum value in R-15 and R-20; however, the free radical scavenging effect decreased for R-20. Based on the results of the sensory test, R-15 was the most acceptable for customized beverages.

This study was conducted to investigate physicochemical characteristics, antioxidant activities, and sensory evaluation of water extracts from Liriopis tuber (Liriope platyphylla Wang et Tang; LP) treated with roasting over various temperatures ($150{\sim}190^{\circ}C$). The LP water extracts showed increase of total sugar, reducing sugar, total protein, and total saponins except pH as roasting temperature was elevated. The browning index, and a and b values of color were increased, however, L value was decreased as temperature was elevated. 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical, superoxide anion radical, and nitrite scavenging activities and trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity of LP water extracts were increased by 6.77, 2.37, 4.02, and 4.92 times, respectively, after roasting at $190^{\circ}C$. In sensory evaluation, LP water extracts roasted at $170^{\circ}C$ showed the highest scores in color, savory taste, flavor, and overall acceptability.

Four different kinds of coffee beans (CS, Colombia supremo; EY, Ethiopia yirgacheffee; IM, Indonesia mandheling; and IMM, India monsooned malabar) were roasted at 200 and $250^{\circ}C$ for 10, 15, and 20 min. To determine the optimum roasting conditions, various components of the coffee beans such as pyrazines produced during the roasting, and their antioxidant and antidiabetic effects were analyzed. The different roasting condition did not affect on the concentration of caffeine. However, the amount of 5-caffeoylquinic acid and the total phenolics decreased significantly, at a greater temperature and a longer roasting time. The greatest amount of pyrazines was produced from the IMM however, the amount of pyrazines decreased rapidly at $250^{\circ}C$ according to increasing in roasting time. The DPPH free radical scavenging activity was mostly 80% more effective than that of BHT and ${\alpha}$-tocopherol activities at the same concentration. In the case of the FRAP assay, the reducing power of the coffee slightly decreased at a greater temperature pand longer time. While the inhibitory effect on ${\alpha}$-glucosidase was negligible, the activity decreased by more than 80% when the coffee beans were roasted at $250^{\circ}C$ for 20 min. The inhibitory effect on ${\alpha}$-amylase showed similar results. Taken together, the optimum roasting conditions were determined to be $200^{\circ}C$ and 15 min, which provided the best physiological activity and nutty and chocolatey aromas from the pyrazine of coffee.

Roasting may lead to the formation of undesired compounds, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). In this study, green coffee beans were roasted under controlled conditions and the formation of PAHs during the roasting process was monitored. Roasting was performed in a hot air roaster, with an inlet air temperature varying from 150 to $250^{\circ}C$ for 5, 10, and 20 min. The PAH content of the roasted coffee was then evaluated by HPLC-FLD. The levels of total PAHs in Arabica (Colombia, Brazil) and Robusta (India) coffee samples were 1.26-215.07, 1.85-178.14, and 0.18-2.61 ${\mu}g$/kg, respectively.

This study was conducted to provide information regarding changes in antioxidant activity in response to conching temperatures, conching times, and cacao mass content (CMC) in dark chocolate. The radical scavenging activities and functional components of cacao nibs were highest for raw cacao nib (R0) under all conditions. Moreover, antioxidant activities and functional compounds increased during roasting for 25 min. As the conching temperature increased, the radical scavenging activities and functional components increased. Quantitative analysis of major catechin-derived compounds by HPLC revealed that R0 had the highest value for other roasted cacao nibs in all aspects (P<0.05). The content of procyanidin B2, catechin, and epicatechin increased during roasting for 25 min. Finally, evaluation of couvertures revealed that procyanidin B1 content increased as conching time increased to 48 h, except for 70% CMC and conched at $60^{\circ}C$ (HH) and 70% CMC and conched at $50^{\circ}C$. Overall, HH48 contained the richest catechin-derived components.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of roasting degree of barley on aroma characteristics of boricha (barley tea) using solvent-assisted flavor evaporation-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-olfactometry. Fifteen volatile compounds including pyrazine, ethylpyrazine, butyrolactone, and guaiacol were considered important volatile compounds, which are generated by roasting barley, because concentrations of those volatiles were significantly increased (p<0.05) as roasting degree of barley was darker. Guaiacol (smoky), furfuryl alcohol (burnt sugar), and furfural (caramel) were detected as aroma-active compounds of boricha with high intensity. Aroma intensity of aroma-active compounds in boricha increased with increase in roasting degree of barley. However, one unknown compound with burnt smell was detected as off-flavor in dark roasted barley. Therefore, it is implied that medium roasting of barley is desirable during boricha manufacturing. Furthermore, boricha manufactured with steamed barley contained more abundant volatile flavor compounds, which may lead to better aroma quality of boricha.
