FT-NIR spectroscopy of spirits and liqueurs
19 Feb 2026Spirits and liqueurs vary widely in style and tradition, yet Fourier transform near‑infrared (FT‑NIR) provides a fast, reliable quality‑control method that supports production across this entire category. It delivers rapid, preparation‑free measurements suited to regulated products where tight limits, especially for alcohol content, directly affect cost and efficiency.
Explore how FT‑NIR helps producers maintain consistency by enabling quick alcohol checks and simultaneous analysis of additional components such as sugars or dry matter. The technique replaces slower wet‑chemical workflows with a clean, maintenance‑free setup, and the optional Liquid Sampling Module (LSM II) automates sampling and cleaning to ensure reproducible, high‑quality results throughout production.
