Select the fruit format around the formulation.
Juice concentrate, puree and NFC juice can all bring fruit to a beverage, but they contribute different levels of solids, texture, acidity, flavor expression and process complexity.
| Question | Concentrate | Puree | NFC |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fruit solids | Typically concentrated; dilution and solids contribution must be calculated from the actual specification. | Adds fruit solids plus body / pulp depending on product. | Generally closer to single-strength juice character. |
| Texture | Usually lower texture impact than puree, depending on clarification and product. | Often the strongest texture / viscosity contribution. | Varies by juice style and suspended solids. |
| Process planning | Consider dilution, sugar contribution, acidity and mixing. | Consider pumping, mixing, settling, filtration and heat process. | Consider storage, heat treatment, juice handling and formulation balance. |
Design from the current specification
Do not assume a universal Brix, acidity, color or density from the product name alone. Use the current supplier specification in formulation calculations and document the approved range in your internal raw material specification.
During pilot work, evaluate sensory and process performance at realistic usage levels, then confirm the commercial pack format can be handled by the production facility.
