paprika chili

Quality classification of paprika powder/podsThe most significant determinant of the quality of paprika pods and powder  is the content of colouring matter. According to the guideline of the food codex, there are five main quality classes of paprika powder summarized in the table below:

	Colouring matter	ASTA values
A paprika powder	Above 6.76g/kg	Above 220 ASTA
B paprika powder	Above 4.00g/kg	Above 130 ASTA
C paprika powder	Between 3.5 and 3.99g/kg	110 -129    ASTA
D paprika powder	Between 3.00 and 3.49g/kg	100- 109    ASTA
E paprika powder	Between 2.00 and 2.99g/kg	60 -99      ASTA

 

 we are capable of producing paprika powder with ASTA values other than listed.

The pungency of paprika powder/pods

200-400SHU

The pungency of paprika powder is determined by its capsaicin content. If the capsaicin content exceeds 200 mg/kg, we call the paprika powder hot.

 The measurement of pungency is the so-called Scoville Heat Units which was named after its American inventor Wilbur Scoville. In Scoville's method, a solution of the pepper extract is diluted in sugar syrup until the "heat" is no longer detectable. The degree of dilution gives its measure on the Scoville scale.
