T/CGTA 10-2025 The sensory characteristics inspection method for water-soaked peanut kernels
Basic Information
Scope
Scope: This document defines the terms and definitions for the sensory evaluation of wet peanut kernels, and stipulates the methodological principles, equipment, environment, laboratory, testing methods, and requirements for recording test results. This document is applicable to the sensory evaluation of domestic and imported wet peanut kernels. Main technical content: 7. Testing methods 7.1 Sample preparation: Sampling and dividing samples shall be conducted in accordance with GB 5491. Approximately 400g of peanut kernels shall be selected as samples. The samples shall be cleaned of impurities, split kernels, and imperfect kernels in accordance with the methods specified in GB/T 1532 and GB/T 5494. 7.2 Testing rules 7.2.1 100 peanut kernels shall be randomly selected from the prepared samples as test samples. 7.2.2 The tester shall conduct visual inspections of the four sensory characteristics (skin smoothness, skin-kernel adherence, embryo suture appearance, and kernel hardness) on the 100 test samples in turn. 7.2.3 If two or more of the four sensory characteristics are rated as "abnormal", the single test sample shall be determined as "abnormal". 7.2.4 If 25 or more of the 100 test samples are rated as "abnormal", the final determination shall be "abnormal". 7.2.5 If two or more of the four sensory characteristics of a single test sample are rated as "abnormal", the single test sample may be determined as "abnormal", and the remaining indicators need not be tested further. If 25 or more of the test samples are rated as "abnormal", the final determination shall be "abnormal", and the remaining samples need not be tested further. 7.3 Testing peanut kernel skin smoothness 7.3.1 Using tweezers, arrange the peanut kernels in a row on a white ceramic plate and observe the surface of the peanut kernels from a specified angle to check whether the surface is smooth and whether there are obvious wrinkles such as cracks or bulges. 7.3.2 If two or
