Dimensional accuracy of hot coil is improved by precise control of thickness profiles, flatness, width and winding profile. Especially, precise width control is important because yield could be increased significantly. Precise width control can be improved by predicting the amount of width spread. The purpose of this study is to develop the advanced prediction model for width spread in hot finish rolling for controlling width precisely. FE-simulations were performed to investigate the effect of process variables on width spread such as reduction ratio, forward and backward tension and initial width at each stand. From the statistical analysis of simulated data, advanced model was developed based on the existing models for strip width spread. The experimental hot rolling trials showed that newly developed model provided fairly accurate predictions on the strip width spread during the whole hot finishing rolling process.

The effects of emulsifiers as additives on the physical properties of rice cookies were investigated in this study. The amounts of emulsifiers added were 3, 6, and 9% based on 100 g of rice flour. Peak viscosity of rice flour added with diacetyl tartaric ester of monoglyceride (DATEM) showed smaller decreases compared to addition of sodium stearoyl lactylate (SSL) or sucrose ester (SE). Hardness of dough as measured by TA increased upon addition of SSL, SE, and DATEM, whereas hardness of cookies increased upon addition of SSL and SE. In contrast, addition of DATEM did not increase hardness of cookies. Density of dough and cookies increased upon addition of SSL and SE, whereas density decreased upon addition of DATEM and spreadability showed the lowest values. From these results, it was confirmed that use of emulsifiers in cookies can control cookie texture. Compared to SSL and SE, DATEM increases hardness of dough and decreases densities of dough and cookies, making it effective in softening the texture of rice cookies.

Response surface methodology was used to investigate the cookie manufacturing process with black rice flour. A three- variable, three-level central composite design was employed where the independent variables were the amount of black rice flour ($0{\sim}20%$), baking time ($10{\sim}14 min$), and sugar type (sucrose, aspartame and oligosaccarides). pHs of dough and cookie tended to increase with the addition of black rice flour. Moisture content of dough slightly increased with tile addition of black rice flour but nearly affected by baking time. Spread factor increased with the addition of black rice flour and it was more evident in the samples prepared with sucrose. L*-value decreased but a*-value increased significantly with the addition of black rice flour. Generally the amount of black rice flour in the sample did not affect the textural characteristics of cookie. As the amount of black rice and baking time increased, sensory flavor became stronger. Sensory sweetness as well as hardness increased but sensory color became darker with the addition of black rice flour. In addition, the response surface models developed in this study for most of physicochemical and sensory characteristics of black rice cookie were adequate.

Demand for the high quality barley with fibroid material and functional substances has been increasing in recent although the amount of barley consumption decreased drastically during the last two decades. But the limited information on quality of barley makes consumers hard when they purchase barley for their own consumption. Therefore, 51 brand barley, .i.e., 28 naked barley and 23 waxy barley from supermarkets and 10 polished barley from local markets were collected, and their external quality were analyzed to provide basic information on brand barley. Among 51 brand barley, 56% were 1kg package and 25% were 800 g package and there was no significant difference ($1{\pm}3.62\;g$) between printed and actual weighs. The weight of 1,000 grains of naked barley and waxy barley ranged $18.6{\sim}26.7\;g$ and $14.6{\sim}24.7\;g$, respectively. Thousand grain weight of 38% of naked barley ranged $20{\sim}22\;g$, while that of 43% of waxy barley ranged $18{\sim}20\;g$. The ratio of normal grains was 88% and 94% for naked barley and waxy barley, respectively, when separated with 1.7 mm sieve. Although 82% of brand barley products were free from foreign substances, in 18% of brand barley products, sands, pieces of cloth and wood, other kinds of grain and insect larvae were found, Average test weight of brand barleys was $843g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ with range of $805{\sim}917g{\cdot}L^{-1}$. Water content was less than 14% in 7.8% of barley products, while it was $14{\sim}15%$ in 62.7% of them. Average whiteness of brand barley was 31.06, while waxy barley had higher whiteness with 27.28 than naked barley with 34.16. Heated water uptake rate of milled naked barley and milled waxy barley were 215.4% and 231.7%, respectively, while expansion rate of milled naked barley and milled waxy barley were 379.7% and 401.6%, respectively. Barley from local markets were as good as brand barley products in 1,000 grain weight, ratio of normal grains, inclusion of foreign substances, test weight, water content, whiteness, water uptake rate, and expansion rate, but they showed higher ratio of foreign substances included.

In this study we investigated physicochemical and sensory characteristics of cookies with various levels(0, 3, 6, 9, 12%) of bamboo leaves powder. Spread ratio of control and 3% added sample showed significantly higher value than $6{\sim}12%$ bamboo leaves powder added samples. Loss rate of control showed significantly higher value than other samples. The 'L' and 'b' value was significantly lowed by the addition of bamboo leaves powder. The 'a' value of bamboo leaves powder added samples were significantly lower than control. Share force was increased in proportion to bamboo leaves powder addition level, which had no significance between control and 3% added sample. But Share force showed significantly high level in 9% and 12% added samples. The result of sensory evaluation for color showed the highest preference in 9% added sample and the lowest preference in 3% added sample. Preference of taste was the highest in 9% added sample, hardness was lower by bamboo leaves addition. Overall acceptability was higher in 6% and 9% added samples than others, but they had no significance.

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal mixing ratios of three different ingredients of Polygonum multiflorum Radix powder, butter, and sugar for the development of recipe for cookies with Polygonum multiflorum Radix powder. Response surface methodology based on a five level and three variables by central composite design was employed to obtain the best possible combination for the ratios of Polygonum multiflorum Radix powder ($X_1$), butter ($X_2$), and sugar ($X_3$). The analytical results of the physical and mechanical properties for each sample including color L (P<0.01), color a (P<0.01), color b (P<0.01), spread ratio (P<0.001), and hardness (P<0.001) showed significant differences. The sensory measurements were significantly different in color (P<0.05), appearance (P<0.05), texture (P<0.001), flavor (P<0.01), taste (P<0.01), and overall quality (P<0.001). The optimal compositional ratios were determined to be 4.00 g for the Polygonum multiflorum Radix powder, 75.42 g for the butter, and 45.67 g for the sugar.

This study aimed to investigate the quality characteristics of iced pumpkin paste cookies prepared using different fat and fatty oils (butter, olive oil, soybean oil, and grape seed oil). The pH, density, and moisture content were the highest in the cookies prepared with butter dough, and the lowest in the cookies prepared with grape seed oil dough. The spread factor of the cookies prepared using with butter was the highest, and the cookie with olive oil, soybean oil and grape seed oil showed lower values. The L values of olive oil cookies, a values of soybean oil cookies, b values of grape seed oil cookies were the highest. The hardness of the cookies prepared using soybean oil was the highest. The overall sensory evaluation showed high overall acceptability for grape seed oil cookies, whereas butter cookies showed lower overall acceptability. The acid value (AV) and peroxide value (POV) were lower in the grape seed oil cookies than in the butter cookies as the storage period of the cookies had passed.

Chocolate is restricted for obese and diabetic patients due to high in sugar contents. We investigated shell-chocolate fillings with low calorie content and low glycemic indexes using alternative sweeteners such as tagatose and xylose and adding coffee grounds. Chocolate filling was made with sugar, cacao and butter in the original recipe. Sugar was substituted with tagatose or xylose and 3% coffee ground was added in each chocolate filling and substituted for 3% of the cocoa. Water retention and spreadability of the chocolate filling was significantly higher in the tagatose+coffee ground group in comparison to the sugar. In the chromaticity test, chocolate filling made with tagatose was darker in comparison to that made with sugar: brightness (L) was lower and redness (a) and yellowness (b) were higher than the sugar filling. Sensory evaluation revealed that chocolate filling made with tagatose had high score in 4 categories such as taste, smell, texture of foreign substance, overall acceptance. After consuming 60 g of the chocolate with different fillings, blood glucose levels of subjects at 1 and 2 h were significantly lower in the tagatose and tagatose+coffee ground groups than the other groups. In conclusion, using tagatose as the sweetener in chocolate filling has a beneficial effect on lowering blood glucose levels and increasing water retention, spreadability and sensory scores. Coffee ground did not have additive effect on quality of chocolate filling and blood glucose levels. These results indicate that shell chocolate made with tagatose can be used as a snack for diabetic patients.
