Glossary of coffee industry terms:- ABSENCE OF DEFECTS (USDA) (Fruit Juice)
Minimum score 18 - maximum 20. The juice should be free of all foreign matter and practically free of seed specks. This is a visual judgement call. ACID (Fruit Juice)
"Acid" means the percent by weight of total acidity, calculated as anhydrous citric acid, in Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice. ACIDITY (Espresso)
A pleasant snap or crispness. Acidity is a desirable characteristic and has nothing to do with the level of acid - the pH - of the coffee. ADDBACK (Fruit Juice)
High Brix concentrate normally 65� Brix, which is added back to current production usually to raise or lower ratio or improve colour. AMBIENT JUICE (Fruit Juice)
The juice is separated from the rest of the fruit and concentrated to the required specification by evaporating the water. The concentrate is then pasteurised once and cold packed in an aseptic carton. AMBIENT STORAGE (Ancillary Products)
No refrigeration needed, store in storeroom. ARBITRAGE (Coffee Market)
Trading between markets in order to take advantage of price differentials. AROMA (Tea - Infused Leaf)

Most forms of bacteria are harmless in manageable quantities, but not all. Recently there have been incidents where crytosporidium has been found in water. While it is important for you to be aware of these incidents, it is the responsibility of the water providers to ensure it is never present in the mains water. BAGGY (Tea - Liquors)

The principle of these devices is to change the polarity of the chemical structure of calcium magnesium so that when water is heated or cooled and the hardness precipitates, it does not form a solid mass but a manageable paste. For best effects these devices require a fast and consistent flow rate and the treated water should be used immediately. MAKE (Tea - Dry Leaf Description)

Hardness in water that does not cause scale is known as permanent hardness. This is mainly made up of calcium and magnesium salts. These mineral salts remain dissolved in water and are considered to have a small nutritional benefit. PHOSPHATE DOSING (Water & Water Treatments)
Sili-phosphates or poly-phosphates are dosed into water to prevent calcium and magnesium bonding together to form scale. This treatment is highly effective in long runs of pipework. However, when water is heated to over 75�C the phosphate generally dissipates. There is also a European limit on the maximum dose of phosphate used in drinking water of 12 parts per million. Care should be taken that phosphate devices limit the amount of phosphate dosed. PLAIN (Tea - Liquors)
A liquor lacking in quality POINT (Tea - Liquors)

A device that, by defracting light, indicates the level of sugar in the solution. This is measured in terms of degrees Brix. REVERSE OSMOSIS (Water & Water Treatments)
The principle of RO is to force water against a semi-permeable membrane that only allows water to pass through. The membrane prevents any dissolved solid from passing through. RO units require a pre-softened supply to prevent "clogging" of the membrane and the system can be expensive to maintain. RO units are most commonly found in laboratories. Larger systems can be found to treat de-salinate water around the world where there may be a water shortage. RIOY (Espresso)
An iodine-like flavour caused by continued enzymatic activity when fruit partially dries on the coffee tree before being harvested. RUBBERY (Espresso)

Tamping means compacting the coffee grounds into the portafilter. TARRY (Espresso)
An unpleasant burnt taste caused by holding the coffee at too high a temperature after brewing. TARRY (Tea - Dry Leaf Description)
A smoky aroma TEMPERATURE (Espresso)
The temperature of the brewing water depends on the brewing method, but varies between 92 - 98�C. TEMPORARY HARDNESS (Water & Water Treatments)
Temporary hardness is commonly known as scale and it is often blamed for up to 70% of beverage machine failures. Scale will form if water containing temp Hd is either boiled or frozen. During these processes the chemical nature of the water changes causing the calcium and Mg ions to come together and form a solid, which then forms onto surfaces such as valves and elements.

Imported from Southern Europe but also found in other producing regions, the Valencia is large in size and both peel and flesh is a deep orange colour. It is the finest juice for FCOJ because, as well as possessing excellent flavour and aroma, it has a VENDING CUP (Ancillary Products)
Standard 7oz polystyrene cup WATER SOFTENERS (Water & Water Treatments)
Base exchange water softeners use a resin bed to ion exchange sodium chloride (salt) for temporary and permanent hardness. The result of this is to have soft water which is slightly salty. This process is ideal in the use of cold water treatment in buildings, dish washing and other non-food applications. Its use in the preparation of food and beverages is not advisable. Current European Law limits the maximum admissable level of sodium in drinking water at 150 parts per million. If the water has a high sodium content before being softened it is likely that the total level of salt in the water could exceed this limit. WEEDY (Fruit Juice)
A grass or hay taste related to under-withering. Sometimes referred to as woody WELL TWISTED (Tea - Dry Leaf Description)
Orthodox grades that are 'well made' or 'rolled' WHITENERS (Ancillary Products)
