Abstract:A comparison is presented of color intensity values of aged and caramel-colored distilled alcoholic products obtained with spectrophotometers and colorimeters operated at different wavelengths. Absorbances measured by a narrow (≤1 nm) and an 8 nm bandwidth spectrophotometer at 430,525, and 610 nm are compared. Colorimeters evaluated include the Klett-Summerson equipped with Nos. 42, 54, and 60 regular filters and 520, 540, and 560 nm narrow bandpass filters and a Coleman Nepho-Colorimeter, equipped with a 525 … Show more
