pH Measurement

15. Measurement of Juice Content –
Percentage of Juice
Procedure
Take 10 fruit and note their weight
Weigh the empty jug and note the weight in
grams
By using juicer we take out the juice from 10
fruit
Strain the juice in jug and note the weight in
grams
• Juice content is depends on
internal quality of the fruit
• Under or over-ripe fruit tends to
be less juicy, which directly
affects the production of juice
Formula
Weight of juice = Total weight(jug + juice)- weight of jug
Juice Content = Weight of juice / Weight of fruits × 100

16. Brix determination
• Brix is determined by refractometer.
• It is preferred to be measured at 20oC.
• Calibrate the Refractometer. It should show zero reading
of distilled water at 20oC.
• Apply the thin layer of pulp on prism assembly.
• Observe reading through eyepiece.

17. pH Measurement
•Take a sample in beaker.
•Dip electrodes and take reading to nearest 0.05.
•Remove electrodes and rinse with water and blot with tissue paper.
Calibration of pH meter
•In every 8 hours pH meter is calibrated after.
•Standard buffer solutions having pH 7.0 and pH 4.0 are used.
•Electrodes are stored in a pH 7.0 buffer solution or distilled water.

18. Titrable Acidity
1. Prepare 0.1 normal solution of NaOH
2. Take 1 gram pulp
3. Add 10ml of distilled water
4. Add 2-3 drops of indicator phenolphthalein
5. Titrate the sample against the NaOH solution drop by drop by burret until
pink color appeared
6. Note the Reading
Formula
% acid = Titre value × 0.64 / weight of sample
The constant
factor for
mango pulp is
0.67
