Quality characteristics of Shiitake mushroom using two types of dryers, energy-efficient heat pump hot-air dryer and electric heater hot-air dryer were compared. Energy consumed during drying by heat pump hot-air dryer and electric heater hot-air dryer were 22.8 kWh and 28.9 kWh, respectively. Total polyphenol content of heat pump hot-air dryer and electric heater hot-air dryer after drying were $290.55{ pm}10.56ppm$ and $192.99{ pm}6.53ppm$ , respectively. No differences were observed between dryers in reconstitution rate and browning ratio after drying. Also, there were no differences between dryers in color value and ${ Delta}E$ value after drying. Shiitake mushroom drying at $45^{ circ}C$ by heat pump hot-air dryer was proved to be more efficient in energy consumption than by electric heater hot-air dryer. |
