• The Consistometer is an instrument used to determine the consistency of viscous materials by measuring the distance that the material flows under its own weight in a given time interval. The instrument allows producers of such viscous products as jellies, preserves, sauces to predetermine formulas for their product and to standardize production lots.
• It is used extensively in the food industry by producers of jams, jellies and other highly viscous products such as tomato paste, tomato ketchup, tomato puree, condensed soup, cheese sauce, batters,cake mixes, gravies, sauces, baby foods, salad dressings, frostings, fillings, chilled food and ready meals etc. (also used in paints, cosmetics and chemicals industry).
• Summary of Test Method. A sample of the material to be tested is poured into a reservoir and the distance of flow in a horizontal direction is read from a ruled track after a fixed time following the materials release from the reservoir.
• Significance and Use.This measurement of flow gives results that cannot be predicted with viscosity measurements, due to surface tension and density effects.
