Abstract

The natural potential of Gunungmalang hamlet is in the field of agriculture, especially Arabica coffee. Coffee farmers form an association, namely the Galuh Lestari Community Self-Help Group (KSM), which in roasting Arabica coffee still uses simple equipment in form of drums. Galuh Lestari KSM encounter problems in the coffee processing process, namely (1) the coffee production does not have adequate quality, aroma, and color; (2) it requires a long time to roast coffee and cool the roasted coffee. (3) The minimum number of workers is two; These three problems impact the production of Arabica coffee. KSM Galuh Lestari needed a renewal of the roasting process from manual to modernized roasting machines. The method applied to overcome these problems is the provision of roasting machines with modern technology. The results obtained from this method are (1) Increasing quality and aroma of Arabica coffee; (2) Increasing Arabica Coffee production capacity; (3) Maximum use of 1 labor. It can be concluded that modern roasting machines can provide increased production of KSM Galuh Lestari Gunungmalang Arabica coffee. The economic advantage is increasing demand for roast beans after using modern roasting machines. Before using the roasting device, the average demand for roast bean coffee was 200 kg/month. After using a modern roasting machine, the need for roast bean coffee is 300 kg/month. The results of coffee production using a roasting machine result in a significant increase of income for KSM Galuh Lestari. In the marketing sector, the existence of the Gunungmalang e-coffee application has proven to be more effective in reaching broader customers.
