The soysauce quality observed included, sucrose, protein, NaCl content and total microflora such as molds and bacteria. The result showed that the a mount of sucrose and protein of the soysauce were content was 67,8% and 3,07%, respectively after 3 months of storage the sucrose and protein content decreased to 58,8%, and 2,3%. During storage, the number of bacteria and mold increased from 2.1 x103 to 3.7 x 103 and 4.0 x102 to 6.1 x103 CFU/ml, respectively. It was concluded that separation process at 100 mesh was ineffective to reduce bacteria and mold. When compared to SNI, the soysauce quality is still good and safe to consume.
