What’s the secret to perfect consistency in every can of a beverage? It’s not a secret. It’s science. For our B2B partners, avoiding the risk of an inconsistent product is critical. That’s why our quality process at Tan Do Beverage starts with a deep dive into the data of our ingredients, focusing on two foundational metrics: Brix and pH.
In this first article of our ‘A Look Inside’ series, we’ll show you exactly how these numbers guarantee the quality you and your customers can trust.
Brix: The Scientific Measure of Peak Flavor
You may not have heard of Brix, but you’ve certainly tasted its effect. In simple terms, Brix is the measure of sugar content in a liquid solution. But for us, it’s so much more than just sweetness. Using a precision instrument called a digital refractometer, we measure the Brix level to determine the maturity and flavor concentration of our fruit ingredients.
It’s the scientific difference between the watery, slightly sour taste of an immature coconut and the naturally sweet, rich coconut water from one harvested at its absolute peak.
An optimal Brix reading guarantees that the ingredients were harvested at their peak. If the reading is too low, the product could taste watery and underdeveloped. Too high, and it might be overly sweet and syrupy. Our exacting standards ensure a rich, authentic taste that your customers will recognize and love, every single time.

pH: The Key to Perfect Balance and Stability
The pH level measures acidity or alkalinity. You might remember it from high school chemistry, but in our lab, it is key to perfecting our beverage’s taste profile and achieving a crisp balance between tartness and sweetness.
But its importance goes beyond taste. The pH level is crucial for product stability and food safety. Precisely controlled pH inhibits unwanted microbes, keeping the product safe and stable throughout its shelf life. This scientific check is non-negotiable to protect the product, our partners, and the end consumer.
More Than Machines: The Experts Behind the Data
Technology is only half the equation. Behind every measurement are our highly trained Quality Control staff. They meticulously analyze every batch, making the crucial pass/fail decisions that protect our consistency.
It is this blend of technology and human expertise that is at the core of our promise to you.
