Spectrum Crispness Sensory Scale Correlation with Instrumental Acoustic High-Sampling Rate and Mechanical Analyses
2019
Abstract Mechanical and acoustical instrumental tests can help to predict and compare the sensory crispness of food products. This study proposed a method to correlate crispness sensory analyses to instrumental parameters using the standard products of the Spectrum Crispness Sensory Scale. An acoustic system was developed with a high-sampling rate for characterizing food crispness. Force-displacement and acoustic signals were measured during penetration and compression tests of the products in the Spectrum Scale. A band-pass filter suppressed the texture analyzer's engine and gearbox noise. High correlations were obtained between acoustical and sensory parameters in both tests; however, the penetration test better differentiated. The high-sampling rate acoustical measurement system was capable of discriminate crispy products, although the trained sensory panel was still more sensitive to small differences.
