Vaculiq pilot scale quality datasets for tomato juice and tomato soup derived from second class tomatoes

Description

Pilot-scale quality datasets for tomato juice and tomato soup derived from second-class tomatoes, produced with Vaculiq processing and a classic reference process. Quality parameters include moisture, pH, Brix, CIELAB colour, and rheology flow curve data for relevant product states, including start material, juice, soup, canned soup, and press cake. Soup production used Vaculiq-produced tomato juice as the base material. Classic reference processing included milling and sieving of the juice. Rheology compares the Vaculiq soup after cooking, after sterilisation, and after cooking and sterilisation, using the spindle DG26.7. Missing values indicate not measured, not applicable, or omitted due to confidentiality.
