					How to use this guide  
					The pomelo quality guide is a tool to improve communication about pomelo quality between members of the whole supply chain (from nurserymen farmers,  
					collectors, wholesalers, traders, export agents, retailers and consumers). It provides a common product language to describe and assess pomelo quality.  
					This guide can be used by all members of the supply chain to:  
					•
					•
					•
					•
					•
					develop product specifications  
					train staff in quality standards  
					check the quality of consignments  
					report on quality problems occurring in the supply chain  
					evaluate new varieties of pomelo  
					The assessing pomelo quality section provides methods for sampling and assessing pomelo quality. It provides advice on how to sample pomelo and how to  
					assess external, internal and eating quality.  
					The external and internal quality sections provide colour photographs, along with descriptions, to illustrate pomelo characteristics and quality defects.  
					At the back of this booklet, there is a quality assessment quick guide that provides a summary of the external and internal characteristics and quality defects, as  
					well as assessment levels for eating quality.  
					Once you are familiar with the identification of characteristics and quality defects, the quick guide can be used as a reference for quality assessment.

					Citrus fruit:- pomelo structure  
					Description  
					Septa is the thin portions (walls) between  
					locules  
					Mesocarp / Albedo located  
					in the middle of the rind  
					(membranes that separates the  
					segments)  
					Segment is part of the  
					pulp and is the  
					vesicle/sacs or locules  
					and septa  
					Peel or rind is the  
					pericarp and exterior to  
					the locules  
					Central axis or pith  
					(long stringy section  
					running down the of  
					the center of the fruit)  
					Exocarp or Flavedo is the  
					outer rind layer (skin).  
					This part of the fruit is  
					coloured and contains the  
					oil glands.  
					Endocarp is the inner  
					layer of the pericarp  
					(See oil glands below)  
					Juice vesicle/sacs  
					Oil Glands (oil glands are dotted on the outer surface of  
					the skin)

					Assessing Pomelo Quality  
					Sampling Pomelo  
					To assess the quality of pomelo in a shipment of fruit sent to the markets,  
					packed in bins,(wire or bamboo baskets), sample a minimum of twelve pomelo  
					fruit at random. If the quality is highly variable, sample more pomelo fruit to  
					obtain a representative sample. Select the pomelo fruit from different positions  
					in the bin (top middle and bottom) and from different bins. For example, from a  
					65 kg bin of pomelo fruit, select at least four pomelo fruit per bin from three  
					bins in the shipment. Twelve fruit in total for is needed for assessment.  
					Area = 10% of total  
					surface area  
					For pomelo fruit packed in cartons, select at random one fruit from a six carton  
					stack and repeat for each six carton stack until twelve fruit have been  
					obtained.  
					Area = 25% of total  
					surface area  
					External Quality  
					The external appearance is assessed using the characteristics and quality  
					defect level illustrated in the External Quality Description section and  
					summarised in the Quality Assessment Quick Guide at the back of this  
					booklet.

					Internal quality  
					Internal quality is assessed by cutting the pomelo through its equator, as  
					demonstrated in the photograph (right). Select one half of the pomelo and  
					assess the characteristics and quality defect levels illustrated in the internal  
					quality description section (and summarised in the quality assessment  
					quick guide at the back of this booklet).  
					Note:- always start with the basic characteristics and then assess the level  
					of any defect present. For Flesh colour, use the flesh colour chart, page 28  
					at the back of this booklet. For assessing flesh appearance, cut one half of  
					the pomelo longitudinally to check for cavities and dry segments and  
					sections around the seeds.

					Eating quality  
					To assess sweetness, take a sample of flesh from  
					the point halfway between the mesocarp and axis  
					of the fruit as show in the photographs (below).  
					Squeeze the sample and allow the juice to run onto  
					the prism of the refractometer. The brix level is  
					determined by reading the level on the scale  
					through the eyepiece of the refractometer.  
					Sweetness  
					Sweetness is measured using a refractometer. The refractometer measures the Brix level, which is  
					equivalent to the percentage of sugar in the juice.  
					Brix:  
					Greater than  
					Less than  
					> 10  
					8 – 10  
					< 8  
					(Highly Acceptable)  
					(Acceptable)  
					(Un acceptable)  
					It is important that a temperature-compensating  
					refractometer is used. The brix level varies with  
					temperature-the higher the temperature, the lower  
					the brix level. If the pomelo and refractometer are  
					the sample temperature, the refractometer adjusts  
					the reading to be equivalent to a reading at 200C.  
					Cut one half of the pomelo in half again  
					Cut a wedge section midway between the  
					mesocarp and axis  
					Squeeze the juice from the sample onto the prism  
					of the refractometer

					Texture and flavour  
					To assess taste, cut another wedge section from a  
					similar position in another quarter of the fruit.  
					Assess for texture and flavour using the quality  
					levels.  
					Texture  
					1. Crisp  
					2. Slightly Crisp  
					3. Floury/slightly mealy  
					4. Soft/ or Mealy  
					5. Soft/ or Mushy  
					Assess texture and flavour by taking a sample from  
					a similar position in another quarter of the fruit  
					Flavour  
					1. Like very much  
					2. Like moderately  
					3. Like slightly  
					4. Dislike slightly  
					5. Dislike moderately  
					6. Dislike very much
