Potassium-fortified beverages
At equal potassium, compare mouthfeel and low-temperature clarity.
Replacing an existing potassium salt
At fixed potassium, calculate added anions and formulation solids. Compare blinded samples and clarity after cooling.
Purchase specifications and incoming inspection
Include the intended grade or current specification in the enquiry. Use the table to compare selection criteria and inspection conditions. The specification agreed by both parties defines the contractual limits. ENVO · Potassium gluconate product information ↗
| Property | Unit | Published or agreed specification | Test conditions and checks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Elemental potassium | mg/g | Request a measured value on the as-received basis. | Match the report to the gluconate identity and package lot number. |
| Dissolution or dispersion behavior | min or % residue | Verify under the approved sample conditions | Fix addition rate, water composition, agitation, temperature and standing time. Compare residue and precipitate. |
| Sensory assessment | Approved sample assessment | Agree a reference sample and acceptable difference. | Keep formulation, temperature, sample concentration and blind assessment order constant. Test alongside the approved reference. |
When approving a sample, record the grade, methods, limits and specification revision. On receipt, match the packing lot number to the lot-specific COA and record the measured values and release decision.
From samples to commercial delivery
Packaging and receiving
ENVO lists 25 kg fibre drums with PE inner bags. Confirm net weight, units per pallet and label revision.
Storage and handling
Record the full potassium gluconate name and lot in inventory. Keep other potassium salts and blends distinct.
Sample and order lead times
State food category, sales market, pilot quantity and required arrival date. Confirm MOQ, batch documents, availability and remaining shelf life separately for samples and commercial orders.
Questions from the plant
Why does the flavour change even when potassium meets target?
Compare mouthfeel and cold clarity at equal potassium levels.
Why can total solids differ at the same potassium target?
Calculate the salt mass from potassium per gram, then rebalance sugar, water and acidity.
Report a delivery or batch issue
Include the order number, lot number from the package, label photos and inspection records for the affected lot. When retesting, check Elemental potassium, Assay, solution appearance.
