Biotta - Purely Organic

Low Heat – High Quality

Wednesday, August 5, 2009 by George Pappas
Biotta’s unique pasteurization and manufacturing process is important in retaining our 100% organic juices’ high nutritional value and fresh taste.  It is the key to the high quality and long shelf life of every Biotta juice.

Once we have picked our fruits and vegetables at the peak of ripeness to ensure the highest quality, we employ our proprietary production method.  Our process excludes oxygen as much as possible, hindering oxidation and the resulting loss of vitamins.  Next, we decant the juice from the fruits and vegetables.  Instead of pressing the juice, which can damage the nutrients, we use a process of centrifugation to separate the juice from the mash.  This basic principle applies throughout our process:  the fewer the processing steps and the lower the temperature, the higher the nutritional value of the juice.

With pasteurization, the longer the process and the higher the temperatures, the greater the damage to the juice and its vitamins.  Cooking and processing foods at high temperatures destroys nutrients by altering their shape and chemical composition.  Because of that, our juices are pasteurized at an average temperature of 185 degrees Fahrenheit, whereas many competitive juices are sterilized at over 250 degrees.  We heat the juice quickly and immediately cool it down, using as few stages as possible. 

We also use a natural process of lactic acid fermentation, such as is used in the making of sauerkraut and yogurt.  We apply the same principle in the production of our all-natural vegetable juices.  Enzymes (complex proteins) are deactivated through this preservation process.  This maintains the premium quality of the juices while in storage.

Biotta produces USDA 100% organic juices, available in 16.9 and 8.4 fl. oz. recyclable glass bottles.
