1 Year Warranty
A portable texture and consistency meter designed for fast, reliable measurement of semi-solid food products including shortening, margarines, butters, cheese, icings, pastes, and more. Ideal for quality control, R&D, and production troubleshooting, the SpotOn® Consistometer delivers quantitative, repeatable results by measuring penetration force through the full sample – not just the surface.
Features
- Delivers fast, quantitative measurements of product and ingredient consistency
- Penetrating measurement design evaluates the entire sample, not just surface texture
- Simple, intuitive operation with built-in self-teaching features
- Versatile performance across a wide range of products and ingredients, including shortening, frosting, dough, butter, cheese, and more
- Includes PC software for complete data recall, analysis, and custom configuration to match your application
USA Made | 1 YEAR WARRANTY
Made in Illinois with hands-on quality control and backed by a one-year warranty. Reliable, American-made performance you can trust.

- On-board microprocessor calculates and displays:
- the average force of a measurement
- the mean of a group of measurements
- the Standard Deviation of a group of measurements
- the equilibrated temperature of the measured sample
- Precision load cell and non-contact depth sensor simultaneously measure penetration force and penetration depth, while sample temperature is also measured
- Displays instantaneous penetration speed to guide operator for repeatable results
- Included PC software allows configuration for many products by setting the desired penetration rate, depth of measurement, type of probe tip and specification ranges; all of which can be preloaded onto the instrument
- Interchangeable probe tips can be used to adapt the instrument to different products
