From listing the steps involved in a sensory evaluation project to presenting advanced statistical methods, Sensory Evaluation Techniques, Fourth Edition covers all phases of sensory evaluation. Like its bestselling predecessors, this edition details sensory tests currently in use, promotes understanding of these tests, and describes major sensory evaluation practices. New to this edition are an expanded chapter on the Spectrum method of descriptive sensory analysis, a set of revised flavor intensity scales, an overview of Thurstonian scaling, and a detailed discussion of data-relationship techniques. With numerous examples and sample tests, this book remains an essential resource that illustrates the development of sensory perception testing.ASIN: 0849354315VSKU: BVV.0849354315.ACondition: AcceptableAuthor/Artist:Meilgaard, Morten C.|Carr, B.
