Abstract
ABSTRACTPasteurized Valencia and Temple orange juices concentrated to 45°Brix by freeze concentration retained their fresh juice flavor. Direct steam infusion heating to inactivate enzymes allowed more rapid heating than indirect heating and successfully lowered juice peel oil during vacuum cooling. Except for considerable pulp reduction of feedstream juices, there were few differences from normal citrus juice recovery procedures for freeze concentration. Since the product retained most of the aroma constituents of fresh juice, careful handling and high quality feed juice prior to freeze concentration was much more important than for evaporation. Fresh juice freeze concentrated to 45°B, then pasteurized at temperatures of 80°, 97° and 111°C had reduced sucrose (up to 25%) as the temperature increased to 111°C.
