7、ghts reserved iiiForeword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subj

8、ect for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IE

9、C) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committ

10、ees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be

11、held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 3720 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Food products, Subcommittee SC 8, Tea. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 3720:1986), which has been technically revised. It also incorporates the Tech

12、nical Corrigenda ISO 3720:1986/Cor.1:1992 and ISO 3720:1986/Cor.2:2004. BS ISO 3720:2011ISO 3720:2011(E) iv ISO 2011 All rights reservedIntroduction Tea is grown and manufactured in numerous countries of the world and is blended or drunk in many more. Black tea may be produced from tea from one gard

13、en or region or may be a blend of teas from two or more origins. The desired characteristics of a black tea and the resulting liquor depend on many factors including the type of water to be used for brewing, whether the liquor is to be drunk with or without milk or lemon, and on individual tastes. T

14、he objects of this International Standard are to specify the plant source from which black tea is to be manufactured and to set requirements for certain chemical characteristics which, if met, are an indication that the tea has been subjected to recognized good production practice. It is a matter fo

15、r the parties concerned whether to apply the requirements of this International Standard to a consignment or lot of black tea. The quality of teas is usually assessed by tea tasters, who base their judgements on their previous experience of tea from the producing area and their knowledge of national

16、 or regional conditions, and preferences in the consuming country. Account may be taken of characteristics such as the appearance of the tea before preparation of a liquor, the appearance of the infused leaf and the appearance, odour and taste of the liquor. An expert tea taster can assess whether a

17、 tea would be unlikely to comply with the chemical requirements. Thus, in practice, time and expense can be saved by submitting teas for chemical analysis only if the tea is considered “suspect” by a tea taster.

18、ack tea Definition and basic requirements 1 Scope and field of application This International Standard specifies the parts of a named plant that are suitable for making black tea for consumption as a beverage and the chemical requirements for black tea that are used to indicate that tea from that so

19、urce has been produced in accordance with good production practice. This International Standard also specifies the packing and marking requirements for black tea in containers. This International Standard is not applicable to scented or decaffeinated black tea. 2 Normative references The following r

25、umption as a beverage 4 Basic requirements 4.1 General requirements The tea shall have no taint and shall be reasonably free from extraneous matter. Liquor for assessment of taint shall be prepared by the method specified in ISO 3103. The assessment shall be described in the test report using terms

26、defined in ISO 6078. 4.2 Chemical requirements 4.2.1 The tea shall comply with the requirements specified in Table 1, in which all the figures given are expressed on the basis of the material oven dried at (103 2) C by the method specified in ISO 1573. 4.2.2 No limit is specified for the “moisture”

27、content of the tea as received. If desired, the actual loss in mass at 103 C of the sample as received may be determined and the result recorded in the test report. In such cases, the determination shall be carried out by the method specified in ISO 1573. Table 1 Chemical requirements for black tea

28、Characteristic Requirement Method of test Water extract, % mass fraction 32 min. ISO 9768 Total ash, % mass fraction 8 max. 4 min. ISO 1575 Water-soluble ash, % mass fraction of total ash 45 min.

ISO 14502-1 aWhen the alkalinity of water-soluble ash is expressed in terms of millimoles of KOH per 100 g of ground sample, the limits shall be: 17,8 mi

30、n.; 53,6 max. bThe specific method for the determination of crude fibre in tea is specified in ISO 15598, however for the purpose of routine estimation, the general method specified in ISO 5498 is adequate. In cases of dispute, the method of determination should always be that specified in ISO 15598

31、. The requirement of 16,5 % mass fraction remains unchanged regardless of the method used.5 Sampling See ISO 1839.
