The most significant determinant of the quality of paprika powder is the content of colouring matter. According to the 2-8720 guideline of the Hungarian food codex, there are four main quality classes of paprika powder summarized in the table below:
Colouring matter | ASTA values | |
Exquisite paprika powder | Above 4.00g/kg | Above 130 ASTA |
Delicate paprika powder | Between 3.5 and 3.99g/kg | Between 110 and 129 ASTA |
Noble sweet paprika powder | Between 3.00 and 3.49g/kg | Between 100 and 109 ASTA |
Rose paprika powder | Between 2.00 and 2.99g/kg | Between 60 and 99 ASTA |
Generally, we sell paprika powder with 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160 ASTA values, but we are capable of producing paprika powder with ASTA values other than listed. For instance, numerous clients have a demand for extra exquisite paprika powder with ASTA values more than 160.
The pungency of paprika powder is determined by its capsaicin content. If the capsaicin content exceeds 200 mg/kg, we call the paprika powder hot.
The measurement of pungency is the so-called Scoville Heat Units which was named after its American inventor Wilbur Scoville. In Scoville's method, a solution of the pepper extract is diluted in sugar syrup until the "heat" is no longer detectable. The degree of dilution gives its measure on the Scoville scale.
Chili Produkt Kft. typically sells hot paprika powder between 15,000 and 60,000 SHU according to buyers' requirements.
