The styrene flavour standard helps train professional tasters to recognise the potency of plastics’ character in beverages. Plastic off notes can occur in almost any beverage – when raw materials or finished products interact with plastic during the production or packaging process. The threshold for styrene in beer is 20 µg / l. This can be from: plastic pipework, carbonation lines, dispensing lines, packaging, slip agents and can linings.
