Color measurement of spreads
Jams, jellies, honey, nut creams and other (sweet) spreads are among the processed fruit/nut products whose production time can be accompanied by color changes. From the harvest to the end product, quality controls are necessary at many points in order to guarantee a consistent appearance.
In their appearance, mostly opaque, often translucent, spreads and jams are measured in reflection using various devices and accessories.

For opaque samples such as creams, peanut butter, etc., the sample is spread into the cuvette. If there is no need to clean the glass cuvette for time reasons, HunterLab also offers plastic cuvettes that can be disposed of after the measurement. Filling a glass cuvette for color measurement The measurement is very simple: Place...
