Specific Authority 601.10(7), 601.11 FS. Law Implemented 601.10(7), 601.11, 601.9905, 601.9909, 601.24 FS. History–Formerly 105-1.19(1)(r), (l), Revised 1-1-75, Formerly 20-65.02, Amended 1-30-86, 1-12-92, 6-21-93, 1-17-95, 10-26-97, ________.

20-65.004 Procedure.

(1) The colorimeter or spectrophotometer is to be kept with power connected and maintained on standby or in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. Turn the instrument to “on” position for ten minutes before making measurements, or follow directions of manufacturer. All light sources shall conform to CIE (1931) illuminant C. All OJ4 color tube calibration values are to be obtained from the Winter Haven, FL laboratory of the Processed Products Branch, Fruit and Vegetable Division, Agricultural Marketing Service, United States Department of Agriculture.

(2) through (5) No change.

(6) For the GretagMacbeth Color i5 Spectrophotometer with Color IQ Basic Software and 19mm Orange Juice Test Tube Holder. UV and Gloss exclusion is processed by software. Calibration is prompted by software. When completed replace Orange Juice Holder. Push F6 and Color Number is reported. For confirmation, lights illuminated on front of Color i5 should be: LAV, Reflection, D65, Excluded and Calibrated. Calibration required every 24 hours.

(7)(6) To determine color number or equivalent color score, use the figures in subsection (2)-(6)(5) to calculate the color number or equivalent color score as set forth in Rule 20-65.005, F.A.C.
