PRE-HYDRATED^® Pectin 1694 is a high methoxy pectin that is standardized for viscosity rather than gelling properties. As such, PRE-HYDRATED^® Pectin 1694 is the ideal candidate for viscosifying fruit juice and other fruit-based beverages. PRE-HYDRATED^® Pectin 1694 provides an excellent mouthfeel with the taste consumers expect from fruit juices. PRE-HYDRATED^® Pectin 1694 is typically used at .1% to .2% in most fruit juices.
