Separate cloud from unwanted sediment
Record fruit lot, maturity, suspended pulp and the intended product appearance. Define whether cloud is desirable, how samples are mixed and the standing time before inspection. A cloud change is an observation to investigate, not an automatic equipment fault.
Compare matched processing histories
Retain linked samples before and after the selected treatment. Record time, temperature, any approved ingredient/enzyme additions and subsequent heating or cooling. Do not apply a treatment dose or process schedule from a different fruit.
Keep the acceptance method with the sample
Use the same container, lighting, sample depth and storage conditions. Record sediment, body and any agreed analytical method separately. Investigate suitability for clarification or concentration against these product criteria.
