SOFT DRINKS FLAVOUR STANDARDS
We have worked with soft drinks bottlers and manufacturers worldwide and have developed a range of flavour standards ready to be used. We offer soft drinks standards that can be tailored to your use, and can be added to either 1 or 2 litres of product.
We manufacture a range of flavours, off-flavours and taints. These certified flavour standards are nano encapsulated to make them easy to use. Just add a capsule of ultra-pure, pre-weighed flavour standard to and your samples are ready to serve. AROXA flavour standards let you produce samples that are safe to smell and taste.
These flavours can be used to train a wide range of tasters. Our products can be used in a wide-variety of soft drinks products, just contact us further to find out how.
TRAINING
We offer a variety of taster training courses. Join one of our public courses, or we’ll come to your place to deliver one just for you and your team. From as little as one day, up to two weeks, depending on the level of skill you’re looking to achieve. We’ll teach you to assess the quality of your product for release to the market, taste ingredients and in-process samples, describe the flavour of your product in quantitative terms, evaluate shelf-life and more. Each training day involves evaluation of around 50 samples, with your skills being tested and scored on each and every sample. We are also able to offer remote online training, with per-person training packs so that assessors can participate safely from home during Covid-19.
TASTER VALIDATION SCHEMES
Subscribe to one of our Taster Validation Schemes to assess the performance of your tasters. Using blind- coded flavours added to your soft drinks, we’ll challenge your tasters’ skills in the areas of flavour identification and flavour intensity evaluation, providing a score for their current level of competence and giving you the information you need to make targeted improvements.
SensCheck® Sensory Management Software
Eliminate paper forms and spreadsheets and do all your tasting using a web browser on computer, tablet or phone. Every result available at the click of a button. Keep track of your product flavour, from start to finish.
Professional Tasting Services
Our highly-skilled professional taste panel will taste your product under “blind” conditions. We can provide a simple report assessing the quality of your product and make recommendations for improvement, or a more detailed report in which we assess the intensity of each of 60 flavour characters. We have also done raw materials analysis, troubleshooting and descriptive profiling of brands.
