Edible film made up of modified tapioca was used to wrap tempeh and its shelf life estimation was determined. The edible films must be capable of evenly aerating and maintaining moisture without causing condensation in order mycelium to be able to grow and produce high-quality tempeh. The experiment was carried out in completely randomized design with two main factors of storage temperature and time. An accelerated shelf life test at 17oC, 27oC, and 37oC with an Arrhenius model was used to calculate the shelf life, and water content was used as quality parameter indicator. The result showed that modified-tapioca based edible film made from fermentation of tapioca by Saccharomyces cerevisiae was characterized as having elongation of 11.40 %, tensile strength of 408.37 MPa, thickness of 0.88 mm and WVTR of 12.60 g/m2/h. Rate constant of water content decrease in edible film wrapped tempeh based on Arrhenius model was 0.3832 % day-1 and Ea was 10.296 kkal/gmol, while that of in PP-plastic wrapped tempeh was 0.3831% day-1 and Ea was 9.998 kkal/gmol. The shelf life of edible film wrapped tempeh was 9.39 days at 27oC, 5.18 days at 27oC, and 2.96 days at 37oC, while shelf life of PP-plastic wrapped tempeh was 8.64 days at 17oC, 4.85 days at 27 oC, and 2.82 days at 37oC. Therefore, it can be concluded that modified tapioca based edible film increased the shelf life of tempeh.

Tempeh, a fermented soybean-based food originally from Indonesia, is a remarkably nutritious functional food with health benefits. Unfortunately, tempeh is highly perishable, with a shelf life of 24 – 48 hours. The goal of this research was to evaluate the possibility of a sub-supercritical CO2 technique to increase the shelf life of tempeh by measuring the changes in the L* (lightness) value and texture of tempeh via application of a kinetic approach and, based on the observations, to estimate its shelf life. Tempeh was processed with sub-supercritical CO2 at 6.3 MPa for 10 min, then together with unprocessed tempeh (control), stored for 5 days at temperatures of 20, 30 and 40 °C. The Accelerated Self-Life Test (ASLT) with the Arrhenius model was used to measure the shelf life of processed and control tempeh. The calculated shelf life of processed tempeh using the ASLT by the Arrhenius method was 2.43 days at 20 °C, 3.7 days at 30 °C and 1.4 days at 40 °C, and the shelf life of unprocessed tempeh was 3.33 days at 20 °C, 2.90 days at 30 °C and 2.56 days at 40 °C. The conclusion was that the use of sub-supercritical CO2 at 6.3 MPa for 10 min increased the shelf life of tempeh stored at 30 °C.

<p><em>Coffee is a beverage that is widely consumed around the world. Proper packaging and storage temperature may extend shelf life of ground coffee. The study aimed to analyze the shelf life of ground Arabica coffee stored in different packaging types and temperature, conducted at smallholder coffee plantations in Garut Regency and the Integrated Laboratory of Indonesian Industrial and Beverage Crops Research Institute, Sukabumi, from June to August 2018. A completely randomized design in factorial was used with 3 factors and 2 replications. The first factor was the packaging type  which consisted of 3 types: thick alumunium  foil 65</em><em>m</em><em> (AF65), thick alumunium  foil 130</em><em>m</em><em> (AF130), and thick lamination 114</em><em>m</em><em> (L144). The second factor was the storage temperature which consisted of 3 levels: 25 <sup>o</sup>C, 35 <sup>o</sup>C, and 45 <sup>o</sup>C, while the third factor was the storage period which consisted of 5 levels: coffee unstored, and coffee stored for 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks. The variables observed were the water and fat content, and the analysis of shelf life was carried out using the ASLT (Accelerated Shelf Life Test) method. The results showed that during storage, the water content increased, whereas the fat content decreased. Fat content is a critical variable in determining the shelf life of coffee. The coffee in AF130 packaging has longer shelf life than in AF65 and L144. To extend the shelf life of coffee packaged in AF130 and L144 is best kept at 45<sup> o</sup>C whereas coffee in AF65 packaging  is ideally at 25<sup> o</sup>C.</em></p>
