STUDY OF APPLE JUICES THE QUALITY OF POLISH PRODUCERS

Abstract

In the work, research was conducted aimed at determining the quality of juices from unfiltered Polish producers. The evaluation of juice quality was based on sensory analysis and determination of physicochemical properties, namely: density, total extract content, acidity. The tasting assessment of juice quality was carried out on a 5-point scale, on the basis of which the quality level was calculated using a complex method that takes into account the importance of individual indicators in the overall quality of the product. It has been established that unclarified juices are of high quality, which is due to easy pasteurization and the absence of the clarification process.
