Abstract
⺠We propose a new scale for colour specification of virgin olive oils named MUOCS. ⺠MUOCS was proposed on the basis of a wide dataset of 1700 virgin olive oils. ⺠MUOCS improved previous Bromthymol Blue (BTB) scale in more than a factor 2. ⺠A low-cost electronic device measuring MUOCS and BTB colours was designed. ⺠This device is portable and may avoid the use of expensive colour instrumentation.
