Abstract

ABSTRACTA high temperature short time process was used to produce a 65° Brix concentrate from watermelon juice. Color of the reconstituted juice was similar to color of the fresh juice. The concentrate could be stored at ‐21°C for 18 months without color loss. The dominant pigment in the concentrate is lycopene and it could be extracted in a relatively pure form. Watermelon concentrate showed a psuedoplatic behavior with apparent viscosities lower than orange and grapefruit juice concentrates within the shear rates of 2‐100 set‐1.
