BASIC SENSORY
EVALUATION OF
BEVERAGES
SENSORY ANALYSIS
Is the science of determining the attributes of products using the human senses
Sensory Evaluation Involves:
• Sense of sight: • Sense of smell:
• Sense of taste:
3 REASONS TO CONDUCT SENSORY EVALUATION:
To savor the food/beverage;
To assess quality and relate it to price
To check and record the food’s/beverage’s condition and potential
Scientist have categorized over 17,000 different smell
Humans can distinguished 10,000 smells (no one knows just how this ability works)
Of all senses, SMELL is the most acute; 1,000 times more sensitive than the sense of taste
HENNING’S SMELL prism is a tool w/c has six categories of smells, combinations of w/c account for all the detectable odors and aromas.
Training, concentration & practice can learn to dissect & describe the elements of complexity
SMELL is the most fragile of human senses.
Smell Fatigue may occur if too many beverage to smell; similar to sight fatigue in a darkened room or constant noise in the city
Flavor is 75% smell (olfaction) 25% taste (gustation) in healthy individuals
Tastes are sensed by nerve receptors called “BUDS” (able to sense all various tastes = bitter, sweet, salty, sour
Papilla (round volcano-like structure) of the tongue contains 250-270 taste buds; 10,000 in average human
TASTE BUDS=look likes the petal of a flower
Humans detects taste at different concentrations: Bitterness (1 part of 2 million); Saltiness (1 part in 400); Sourness (1 part in 130K); Sweetness (1 part in 200)
The taste of a drink is detected in different parts of the mouth: (see diagram)
The sense of touch figures in the overall flavor impression by conveying temperature, texture & pressure, sensations of touch (smoothness, crunchiness), irritation (cool menthol, hot pepper), or thermal differences (hot or cold) called CHEMESTHESIS & may be experienced in the eyes, mouth, nose or throat.
• OLFACTORY =The olfactory system isthe sensory system used for olfaction, or thesense of smell;the sense that enables one to perceive odors
• GUSTATORY = is the sensory system for thesense of taste
