When should I test?

Gold standard beverage quality and safety monitoring means sampling and testing each time anything is added to a batch.
Why should I test?

Find potential sources of contamination in your manufacturing process.

Eliminate problems.
Prevent small problems from becoming big, expensive ones.
Improve beverage quality.

At a minimum, know what contaminants are in your final, packaged product.

Make informed decisions on:
• recommended shelf life
• whether/when to distribute
• how to improve processes
