(Tetra Pak) To the best of our knowledge the information presented in this book is correct Nevertheless, Tetra Pak disclaims all responsibility for any detrimental effects resulting from the way in which the information is used I II Sharing an experience A mine of information Because of its refreshing taste and wholesome nature, orange juice dominates the fruit juice market It is unique among juices in that the consumer can easily compare its sensory properties with those of the fresh fruit or juice squeezed directly from fresh oranges This puts high demands on orange juice producers to deliver the same level of quality, or as near as possible, as that consumers expect from fresh fruit The challenge is particularly tough because orange juice is a complex beverage sensitive to the way it is treated Over the years, Tetra Pak has been closely involved with orange juice products We believe that some of this experience could also be of interest to our customers As a supplier of both processing equipment and packaging systems, Tetra Pak has hands-on competence with all steps in the production chain, from the fruit tree to the distribution of packaged orange juice This is what we would like to share with you in the form of this book From bulk concentrate and onwards, much of what is described in The Orange Book is also valid for orange nectars and other types of fruit juices However, the production requirements for pure orange juice are usually more stringent in order to satisfy consumer expectations for this product This book focuses solely on orange juice, but Tetra Pak also has extensive know-how in the processing and packaging of many other types of fruit juices A number of tools help you extract information readily from this book A glossary explains familiar expressions used in the citrus industry, and a list of literature is given for further reading Metric units are used throughout this book except when other specific units are commonly used A list of conversion factors allows you to convert between different units We hope you will find The Orange Book useful in providing consumers with the most enjoyable fruit juice provided by nature A journey with juice Second edition The Orange Book follows the complete journey of orange juice It begins with the various types of orange fruit, proceeds through all the processing and packaging steps, and ends with the distribution of the end product to consumers Along the way there is a chance to look at market information, juice quality and categories, the trading and shipping of products, and industry standards and regulations Consideration is given throughout to the factors that influence end-product quality, including the role of flavour and product blending The first edition of The Orange Book was well received in 1997, and as it went out of print it is followed by this revised edition Valuable comments have been received on the book from many sources in the citrus industry Tetra Pak would particularly like to thank the following persons for their review of relevant sections in the book and suggestions on how to improve it: Professor Robert Braddock of the University of Florida, Antonio Carlos Gonçalves of Louis Dreyfus Citrus, Dr Barrie Preston of Döhler-Eurocitrus, and Martin Greeve, Chairman of the AIJN Code of Practice Expert Group III Contents THE ORANGE FRUIT

orange plant from Southeast Asia to the rest of the world • Global orange production and the development of large-scale production • Common orange crop diseases and their control by using resistant rootstocks • The whys and wherefores of single-strength and concentrated juice • How the seasons are bridged to provide consumers with year-round supplies • What’s inside an orange • Nature’s gift Every part of the orange can be used for producing commercial products • Valuable by-products such as pulp, peel oil, essences and animal feed • The most important orange-growing regions 1 The orange fruit and its products A look inside Basically, an orange consists of juice vesicles surrounded by a waxy skin, the peel The peel comprises a thin, coloured outer layer called the flavedo and a thicker, fibrous inner layer called the albedo The endocarp, the edible portion of the fruit, includes a central fibrous core and individual segments containing the juice sacs In large processing plants the complete fruit is utilised By-products are produced to help maximise profits and minimise waste Summary The orange plant originated in Southeast Asia and spread gradually to other parts of the world Today, orange juice products derive from four main groups of orange About 65 million tonnes of oranges per annum are produced globally Of this, around 40 % is processed into juice and the rest consumed as whole fruit Single-strength or concentrated As juice is produced on a seasonal basis, it must be stored between seasons to ensure a year-round supply to consumer markets Most juice is produced as frozen concentrated orange juice, FCOJ, because it can be stored for long periods of time and shipped at lower cost as it contains less water “Not-from-concentrate” juice, NFC, which is at single strength, requires much larger volumes during storage and shipping Most NFC produced is intended for nearby markets but its export is increasing Major players The two most important orange-processing regions are Brazil and the state of Florida in the US Together these regions account for nearly 90 % of global orange juice production Tangerines 17 % Lemons / Limes 11 % 1.1 The fruit’s origin and important varieties The orange is the world’s most popular fruit Like all citrus plants, the orange tree originated in the tropical regions of Asia Oranges are mentioned in an old Chinese manuscript dating back to 2200 BC The development of the Arab trade routes, the spread of Islam and the expansion of the Roman empire led to the fruit being cultivated in other regions From its original habitat, the orange spread to India, the east coast of Africa, and from there to the eastern Mediterranean region By the time Columbus and his followers took plants to the Americas, orange trees were common in the western Mediterranean region and the Canary Islands Grapefruits 6% Oranges 66 % Fig 1.1 World citrus fruit production by types 2001/02 Source: FAO Oranges account for more than two thirds of the world production of all citrus fruits, of which other important species are the lemon, grapefruit and mandarin (see Figure 1.1) Glossary Soluble solids are solid materials that will dissolve in the liquid in question Sugars and acids in citrus juices are commonly referred to as soluble solids Quick Fibre A test method to determine the relative dryness of pulp It indicates how hard the squeezing of pulp to remove juice in the finishers has been Quick Fibre (QF) is also a measure of how wet the pulp is as it exits the final, or drying, finisher in the pulp production line Specific gravity Refers to the actual weight of a liquid in relation to water (at defined temperatures) Also called relative density State Test Ratio Standardised method used in Florida to establish the potential juice yield from a delivered load of fruit Juice extraction is carried out using a State test extractor under well-defined operating conditions The actual juice yield during commercial processing of the same fruit batch is different to, and often higher than, the State Test yield The ratio is obtained by dividing the °Brix of a juice product by the acid content (as % wt) The ratio, also referred to as Brix:acid ratio, is important for describing taste as a measure of the balance between the sweet and sour sensations Consumers prefer a ratio of around 15:1 Sweet oranges Recontamination For orange juice, the sweet orange, Citrus sinensis, is the most important group of orange fruit Regulations in the EU stipulate that orange juice may only be made from the sweet orange, whereas in other markets legislation allows the addition of small amounts of juice from other orange varieties, like mandarins, to balance juice taste Contamination of juice with microorganisms after it has been pasteurised Also known as reinfection Refractive index A measure of how much light is refracted, that is, changes direction, on passing from one medium to another The refractive index for a solution depends on its concentration The measured refractive index can be translated into concentration of soluble solids of a solution such as orange juice Taste Sensations perceived via the taste buds of the tongue when stimulated by certain substances Refractometer An instrument for measuring refractive index Sensory analysis Viscosity Examination of a product by the sense organs Viscosity is a measure of the “thickness” of a fluid It affects the “body” of the juice created primarily by pectin-related stabilisation of the cloud or colloids in the juice The presence of insoluble material also contributes to increased juice body or viscosity Shelf life The time period up to the point when a food product becomes unacceptable from a safety, sensorial or nutritional perspective Single-strength The term assigned to juice at its natural strength, either directly from the extraction process or in a reconstituted form Washed pulp The solid particles remaining from the pulp wash process It is sold in frozen form for addition to fruit beverages, or recovered in the feed mill area for use as animal feed Solids Insoluble solids are, simply put, solids that will not dissolve in the liquid in question In orange juice they consist mainly of cellulosic and insoluble pectic substances generally associated with pulp 196 13 Abbreviations,

solutions 13.3 Density tables for sugar solutions BRIX LEVELS FOR SINGLE-STRENGTH JUICES The official table for true density values of sucrose solutions (at 20 °C) was published by Plato in 1900 and is still universally used today Relative densities and weight of solids of sucrose solutions were derived from the Plato table (1942) These values were adopted as an official table for determining solids weights in orange juice concentrates by the Florida citrus industry Later the tables were further developed and computerised They are used throughout the citrus industry to provide a uniform reference for determining the quantity of soluble solids (“pounds solids”) in fruit juices and concentrates An abstract from the sugar density tables developed by Chen (1989) is given below The full table includes true density in vacuum, density in air, etc The values in the list below can be used to approximately relate the soluble solids (or sugar) content of orange juice to its specific gravity, for example when calculating the blending formula for reconstituting juice (See subsection 7.4) Orange juice is not a pure sugar solution but contains other solids, both dissolved and insoluble Explanations to the table below: Conc in °Brix or %w = sucrose concentration as %weight Conc in g/l = sucrose concentration as grams sucrose per litre solution at 20 °C Relative density
