Riassunto:

Sensory Panel Management: A Practical Handbook for Recruitment, Training and Performance reviews both the theoretical and practical, from recruitment and training, to creating the best team and dealing with panelists' issues.

As an ex-Chairman of Campden BRI's Sensory and Consumer panel, Lauren Rogers is a leading independent sensory consultant with over twenty years experience as both a member and a leader of sensory panels, working on both food, home and personal care products. Additional authors bring their specialist expertise to writing the chapters on specific elements of panel training and performance, also discussing human resources.

The book is divided into three main sections. Part One looks at the recruitment of sensory panels, covering the process from both a scientific and a human resources angle. Part Two deals with the training of a sensory panel, including a discussion of initial training and coverage of method and product specific training. Part Three examines the performance of sensory panels, with chapters exploring performance measures and ways of dealing with difficult situations relating to panelists.

A final chapter looks at the future of sensory panels. Throughout the book, short case studies demonstrate the practical application of the methods being discussed, making this a key reference for academics, technical and sensory staff in food companies.
