Haze production in aerobically or anaerobically produced Red Delicious apple juice was assessed following heating, aeration, and protein addition. Stored aerobic juice produced haze in 6 wk, but anaerobic juice was haze‐free unless oxygen was introduced. Phenolic material was incorporated into haze in both systems. HPLC (detection at 420 nm) of concentrated juice and addition of 100 mg/L BSA suggested the presence in both juices of ‘reactive’ material which could complex and precipitate during storage. Phenolic compounds, heating, and especially oxidation during processing (and storage) appear to be major determinants of ‘haze potential’ in clarified apple juice.
