測定装置としては、直線運動により物質の圧縮応力を測定することが可能な装置を用いる。直径40mmの容器に試料を15mmの高さに充填し、直径が20mmのプランジャでこれを圧縮して、圧縮応力を測定する。この測定は、20±2℃の温度で、圧縮速度を10mm/秒とし、容器の底面とプランジャとのクリアランスが5mmになるまで行う。試料が不定形である場合などには、クリアランスを試料の厚さの30%として測定してもよい。この測定を5回行い、最大値及び最小値を除いた3回の値の平均を測定値とする。 The hardness of soft foods is measured by the following method.
As a measuring device, a device capable of measuring the compressive stress of a substance by linear motion is used. A container with a diameter of 40 mm is filled with a sample to a height of 15 mm, and is compressed with a plunger with a diameter of 20 mm to measure the compressive stress. This measurement is performed at a temperature of 20±2° C., a compression rate of 10 mm/sec, and a clearance between the bottom surface of the container and the plunger of 5 mm. In cases such as when the sample has an irregular shape, the clearance may be measured as 30% of the thickness of the sample. This measurement is performed 5 times, and the average of the 3 values excluding the maximum and minimum values is taken as the measured value.
