Скачать или смотреть Tomato Taste Test #6 - Costoluto Genovese - Did It Make The Cut for 2024?

You will see a few different vantage points in this video series. Wasn't sure if these would work better as Shorts or the usual, so I tried out a few different editing strategies to help me pick one for 2024.

For the month of January and a little bit beyond, I will be posting a short daily tomato taste test video. I grew over 80 varieties of tomato this past summer. I filmed taste tests of about half of them, to post now, when people are searching for information about the seeds they intend to buy in the coming weeks. Hoping that my efforts, while amateur, can be helpful. My Taste Scale is rated 1 to 5, 5 being strongest.

Most of the varieties include a Brix reading from a refractometer.

BRIX - measure of dissolved sugars. 1 degree BRIX = 1g sucrose per 100g measured liquid. Measured by a Refractometer tool. The BRIX measurement did not always correspond with how my palate registered sweetness. More of a fun tool, for me personally.

Bacterial Speck - Only impacts the skin, the damage does not move into the flesh, nor does it impact flavor. It's just really ugly.

I'd be happy to answer any tomato variety questions, if asked. Always thrilled to read a happy or helpful comment or even just a Like. I am glad you are here!
