Goal of the workshop: Familiarization with the possibilities of using waste from the food industry. Analysis of finished up-cycled products (total content of phenolic substances) and their sensory evaluation.

The workshop will consist of two parts:

  • we will familiarize ourselves with the meaning of phenolic substances, we will propose a hypothesis regarding the change in the content of these substances in the threshed and the further processed product
  • we determine the total content of phenolic substances in samples of dried malt and biscuits made from it
  • we will statistically evaluate the analyzes and draw conclusions

2. Sensory part:

  • introduction to sensory analysis of food, evaluator training, familiarization with electronic systems (e-eye, e-tongue, e-nose)
  • practical examples from the training of evaluators - verification of one's own senses
