Diacetyl Flavour Standard

$160.00

Diacetyl is a positive flavour, but a high level can also be seen as an off flavour. Beers produced with poor fermentation controls frequently have high levels of Diacetyl.

Our Diacetyl Flavour Standard is used to examine trained tasters’ ability to detect the level of Diacetyl in beer. The Diacetyl Flavour Standard denotes a butter or butterscotch flavour and can be used to examine trained tasters’ ability to detect it in food & beverages.

Diacetyl can be found in some foods as a result of poor storage, cooking or processing conditions. Diacetyl is also produced by some bacteria, making it a common contaminant in food & beverage manufacturing environments.
