Bostwick Consistometer Stainless Steel For Consistency
The consistency of a sample is measured by its resistance to flow under specific conditions, for a specified time.
Description: The consistency of a sample is measured by its resistance to flow under specific conditions, for a specified time. The Bostwick Consistometer is one of many instruments designed to make such measurements. The Consistometer is manufactured from 316 food grade stainless steel engraved with a series of precise graduations at 0.5cm intervals. The sample is initially retained in a reservoir behind a spring loaded gate prior to testing.
Applications:
Food Processing
Tomato Sauces + Others
Preserves
Fillings
Soups
Baby Foods
Salad Dressings

How to use:
A measured sample, usually 75 ml, is placed in the reservoir behind the gate.
The gate is released, by pressing the lock release lever - the spring action ensures it opens instantaneously.
As the fluid flows down the instrument its progress can be accurately measured using the graduated scale. By comparing the flow rate to specified time periods the physical properties of the sample can be calculated.
