Nutmegs show up on our table as a popular and common spice. It is also temperature-sensitive goods. Freshliance Fresh Tag 1 temperature data logger can monitor its temperature during its transportation and storage and help you to implement food safety management based on HACCP principles.

Nutmegs are an important spice used for seasoning soups, sauces, vegetables, meat and fish dishes, liqueur production, and the production of essential oils. It is the seed kernel, removed from its husk. Nutmeg is processed, cleaned, graded and carefully packaged for overseas dispatch in the countries where they are cultivated. They are dried to preserve them for transport and storage. In consumer countries, they are delivered to spice mills, cleaned and graded again, ready for sale in unground or ground form.

Nutmegs are packed in boxes and double-layered jute bags. The favorable travel temperature range is 5 – 25°C. At temperatures >25°C, essential oils may be lost. The storage space should be cool, dry, and most particularly, easy to ventilate. Nutmeg is hygroscopic and thus interacts with the moisture in the air. If moisture is present for long periods (>75% relative humidity), mold growth may occur both internally and externally, making the produce musty and brittle (crumbling), leading to a considerable loss in value. Excessive moisture may lead to a complete loss of commercial value.
