 ABSTRACT

The grape pomace collected after processing of fully matured grape berries (var. Bangalore blue) was pretreated with T1 (KMS 1% + CaCl2 1%) and T2 (Citric acid 1% + KMS 0.5%) for 5 minutes then dried at 40-65°C for 15 hours in cabinet drier, milled into powder and packaged in Low density polyethylene (LDPE), Metallised polyester (MP) and the dehydrated grape pomace powder without packing was kept as control for three months under ambient condition. During storage, changes in quality composition of this treated grape pomace powder were recorded at every month. Among the treatments, pomace powder pre-treated with Citric acid 1% + KMS 0.5% (T2) and packed in metallised polyester (MP) had recorded highest quality. This preservation method could be used by the processing industries for bulk storage of grape pomace powder after processing of grapes during peak harvesting season for further end uses.
