Abstract

The research related to the presence of natural fermentative microflora in tapai fluid. Tapai fluid is one of byproduct that produced during tapai fermentation process.

The aim of the research was to determine the presence of natural fermentative microflora in tapai fluid of cassava (Manihot utilissima Pohl.) and to know the characteristic of Tapai fluid based on alcohol level, residual sugar content, pH, and temperature. The results showed tapai fluid contain colony of natural fermentative microflora (yeast and bacteria), that was isolated by GPA and YEA medium and obtained alcohol level (2.5-11%), a residual sugar content (15.3-22.0% Brix), pH (3.43-3.87), with temperature (15.3-22.0%).
