Abstract: NAMOCA, ALMURA D. and SANTOS, DANIELLE HANNAH C. Utilization of Coffee Leavings as Body Scrub. Research Study. (General Science Curriculum) Science High School, College of Education, Cavite State University, Indang Cavite, March 2010. Adviser: Ms. Mariedel Autriz. The study aimed to produce a body scrub from coffee leavings. This was conducted in order to evaluate the sensory characteristics of the body scrub in terms of aroma, texture, color and moisture; to determine the best coffee leavings: vessel ratio in producing the body scrub; and to determine the acceptability of coffee leavings as body scrub. Nine treatments for the study were prepared, namely: Treatment 1 containing 100 grams of coffee leavings: 50 grams of lotion; Treatment 2 containing 100 grams of coffee leavings: 100 grams of lotion; Treatment 3 containing 100 grams of coffee leavings: 200 grams of lotion; Treatment 4 containing 100 grams of coffee leavings: 50 grams of oil; Treatment 5 containing 100 grams of coffee leavings: 100 grams of oil; Treatment 6 containing 100 grams of coffee leavings: 200 grams of oil; Treatment 7 containing 100 grams of coffee leavings: 50 grams of liquid soap; Treatment 8 containing 100 grams of coffee leavings: 100 grams of liquid soap and Treatment 9 containing 100 grams of coffee leavings: 200 grams of liquid soap. In the conduct of the study, coffee leavings were first collected at Cafe Severino, Indang, Cavite. Then, the collected coffee leavings were placed in a winnowing basket g for a day and were pan roasted for twenty minutes to prevent growth of molds. After the coffee leavings had been dried, they were filtered using a strainer to ensure that the grains are of similar sizes. The collected sun dried coffee leavings were then distributed and mixed to the different types of vessels, such as lotion, liquid soap, and oil. Using the questionnaires, the produced body scrubs were evaluated in terms of its sensory characteristics by fifteen laboratory panelists. It showed that Treatment 7 (100 grams coffee leavings: 50 grams liquid soap) is best in terms of texture and color. On the other hand, Treatment 9 (100 grams coffee leavings: 200 grams liquid soap) appeals most in terms of aroma and moisture, and appeared to be the best in terms of general acceptability. Treatment 7 was subjected to consumer acceptability because it is the best treatment in terms of quality description, texture, and color.
