A drink from fruit essence or also known as fruit juice, is a drink that loved by most of
people. Nowadays, there a lot of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are involved in this
industry of fruit juice making, because it’s the rapid culinary development in this batam
city. Aside from the benefits of the fruit which is good for our health it’s also has a delicious
and unique taste in each fruit. These days the making process of fruit juice is still in
conventional way. Conventional dosing somehow using approximately of human feeling so
that often inaccurate compositions are created. As a result the taste of the juice could be too
sweet or even tasteless. To solve this problems, the writer created a device that could
measure the composititions of each ingredients such as water, sugar, and milk using water
flow sensor and solenoid valve. This device has 6 choices of portion quantities and 6 level
options of sweetness which is sugarless, medium, sweet, sugarless without milk, medium
without milk and sweet without milk. The given dose input will be processed by the
microcontroller to control the solenoid valve and water flow sensor. The water flow sensor
reads the water debit and the solenoid valve as the tap will automatically close when the
desired volume is reached. The system in this blender has worked well on all portions and
sweetness menus with an error percentage of 1.87%.
