- Intervention effect Heat drying gave the highest hot pepper drying rate, 85.1%.
- Intervention effect Heat drying gave the lowest hot pepper powder moisture content, 13.5%.
- Intervention effect ASTA color value was higher after heat drying than sun drying.
- Intervention effect ASTA color value was higher after dehumidified drying treatment than sun drying.
- Intervention effect Capsaicinoid content was higher under sun drying than heat drying.
- Intervention effect Capsaicinoid content was higher under sun drying than dehumidified drying treatments.
- Intervention effect Sugar content was higher under dehumidified drying treatment than sun drying.
- Intervention effect Sugar content did not differ significantly between heat and dehumidified drying.
- Intervention effect Dehumidified drying was 9.9% more efficient in production cost than heat drying.
- Recommendation The authors recommend adjusting drying temperature and time to improve capsaicinoid content.
