Monitor and control the colour of baked, fried, smoked, and processed foods, including ingredients. Establish specifications for crust, crumb, and ingredients. Ensure consistency in product appearance. Designed for contact measurements, Konica Minolta’s BC-10 provides reliable, precise colour measurements through all stages of food production. The BC-10 is not affected by lighting conditions, and eliminates inconsistencies and obstacles such as “human eye” subjectivity.

It is ideal for multi-plant, multi-lined companies, co-packers, and restaurant chains that seek enhanced consistency and quality of their products' appearance. Besides crust colour, the BC-10 measures colour in most bakery and snack food products, block yeast, brown sugar, calcium propionate, and flour blending. The baking meter is also used by academia for colour recognition training, research and development, and international bakery assistance.
