Relative flavor release rate

Mastication rate. Mastication rates affect the extent of aroma release dramatically. A standard rate, such as 50 to 60 cycles/min, should be chosen if one is not interested in the effect of mastication rate. Usually, relatively high rates will be used (e.g., >50 cycles/min), corresponding to the chewing rates people apply when consuming solid foods. When interested in the effect of chewing behavior on flavor release, a range of mastication rates can be applied, e.g., 0, 25, 50, 75, 100 cycles/min.
