The juice oozes out of the small holes in the tube. In the second one the fruit is cut into halves and subjected to reamers for the extraction of juice. The juice is then filtered and sent for concentration. Almost two thirds of the water content is removes during concentration due to which its expiry date is increased and its transportation is made easier. Then it is mixed with other factors to restore any loss in flavours and colours.
The guava juice is then pasteurized. It is filled into containers while hot and then cooled as quickly as possible. Hydrogen peroxide is used for making the containers sterile. The guava drink is then processed through pulsed electric fields. The final stage includes sealing and labelling the containers and transporting them to the market. Benefits Immunity booster.
