One of the basic prerequisites for properly conducting sensory analysis is properly outfitting the tasting room and the sample preparation area.
As is the case with drinking water, water employed for the production of beer and soft drinks must be neutral in odor and taste.

A qualitative test is performed after shaking the water in a sealed, odor-neutral bottle. Water possessing an odor is measured quantitatively on the basis of a sensory threshold. Water possessing an odor is diluted with odorless water until the odor is barely perceptible (by at least three people). The ratio of the total volume (water with odor + odorless water) to the volume of the mixture containing the water sample is designated as the odor threshold. The taste test should always be performed after evaluating the odor, since the perception of odor can be influenced by flavor.

One of the basic prerequisites for properly conducting sensory analysis is the availability of suitable persons to serve as members of a tasting panel.
This method describes how to test the sensory impact of filter aids and stabilizing agents under normal operating conditions.
Filter aids and stabilizing agents which are used in the brewing and food production industries
In order to test the influence and effects of filter aids in a routine production situation, it is recommended that a filtration trial be conducted under standard operating conditions.
The odor and flavor of the filtered beer is also tested as part of this trial.
The test should be conducted against a control sample that has not been in contact with the material to be tested.
