Brix, acidity and the Brix/acidity ratio of a blend of two juices with added water, sugar or citric acid.
Approximate calculation using a simplified model: for designing equipment and process modes, consult a technologist.
Calculates the Brix, acidity and Brix/acidity ratio of a blend of two juices with added water, sugar or citric acid by mass balance.
Acidity is given in g/100 g as malic acid; citric acid is converted by equivalents. The calculation is approximate: the real acidity and Brix are checked by titration and a refractometer.
The calculations are approximate: they help to assess the process and compare options, but do not replace a process design and trials on a specific raw material. This section is for reference only and contains no commercial offers.
