How the AFAB PR111 Enhances Food & Beverage Processing

  1. Sugar & Brix Monitoring

In beverages like juices, soft drinks, and energy drinks, sugar concentration directly impacts taste and consumer satisfaction. The AFAB PR111 continuously measures Brix levels, ensuring consistency from batch to batch.

  1. Dairy & Milk Processing

For dairy manufacturers, precise fat and solids content control is crucial. The AFAB PR111 helps:

  • Maintain correct milk solid-to-liquid ratios.
  • Monitor concentration of whey and cream during processing.
  • Ensure quality and compliance with industry regulations.
  1. Brewery & Distillery Applications

Breweries and distilleries rely on accurate alcohol and sugar concentration measurement to produce high-quality products. The AFAB PR111 provides continuous Brix and wort monitoring, ensuring the ideal fermentation process and preventing inconsistencies in alcohol content.

  1. Sauces, Syrups, & Liquid Sweeteners

The concentration of syrups, sauces, and liquid sweeteners affects both texture and taste. The AFAB PR111 allows food processors to:

  • Achieve precise thickness and consistency.
  • Minimize ingredient waste by preventing over-dilution.
  • Ensure flavor consistency in every batch.

Applications of the AFAB PR111 in Food & Beverage Processing

The AFAB PR111 Inline Refractometer is widely used in:

  • Juice & Beverage Production – Monitors sugar levels to meet taste and quality standards.
  • Dairy Processing – Ensures accurate fat-to-solids ratios.
  • Brewing & Distilling – Tracks fermentation to optimize alcohol content.
  • Sauces & Condiments – Maintains the right texture and viscosity.
  • Sugar & Syrup Production – Controls Brix levels for quality consistency.
