Powerful Sour | Capella (20/50/100ml)

Powerful Sour by Capella is a concentrated sour component for fruit, confectionery and drink recipes. Its formulation includes lactic acid and citric acid, making it a choice to test when you want to adjust a recipe’s sour character.

Flavour profile

The focus is sourness rather than a named fruit flavour. Build the fruit or candy flavour first, then assess the sour addition separately so you can control the balance between flavour, sweetness and acidity.

Recipe ideas & pairings

• Compare a berry drink recipe with and without a measured sour addition.
• Try in a suitable citrus confectionery recipe.
• Experiment with a sour apple-style fruit ice.
• Use in small trials when balancing a sweet fruit drink.

Keep an unchanged sample of your base recipe for comparison. Add Powerful Sour to the second sample in small measured steps and record each change.

Using the concentrate

Dilute into the intended food or beverage recipe. Make a small measured trial and assess the finished result before adding more or increasing the batch size. Use application-specific guidance for the recipe.

Make a small test batch, measure each addition and mix thoroughly before assessing the result. Record the amount and final batch size so you can reproduce your recipe. Measuring tools help keep small adjustments consistent. For DIY e-liquid, follow a recipe and product-specific suitability guidance; food-use guidance does not establish suitability for inhalation.

Frequently asked questions

Does it supply a particular fruit flavour?
Use a separate fruit component when the recipe needs apple, berry, citrus or another named fruit flavour.

Which acids does Capella list?
Lactic acid and citric acid are listed alongside propylene glycol as non-flavour ingredients.

How can I avoid losing the original recipe balance?
Compare a small adjusted sample with an unchanged sample, measuring each addition and changing one variable at a time.

Can I use it to establish a preservation process or a target pH?
Use a validated process and appropriate measurements for that purpose; flavour assessment alone does not establish a recipe’s pH or preservation requirements.
