  Maturing
Pineapples Harvest time is often when the base of the fruit has changed from green to yellow or light brown. Fruit may be harvested for fresh market before striking color changes have occurred, since acceptable quality may develop before color changes occur in the shell. Since the pineapple fruit has no accumulation of starch, there is no reserve for major post harvest quality improvements.  As a non climacteric fruits, obvious compositional changes after harvest are mostly limited to de-greening and a decrease in acidity. Minimum soluble solids of 12% and a maximum acidity of 1% will assure minimum flavor acceptability by most consumers. |

 StorageThe essence of the pineapple is its juicy, sweet taste, which is best while the fruit is fresh. Consumers should plan to eat the fruit within three days of purchase, and until then preserve the freshness by refrigerating the fruit in a closed container.  Avoid the freezer; freezing can make the fruit dry out more quickly. Store other fruits, such as tomatoes and blueberries, next to pineapple to keep them fresh and sweet longer. A cool room should be keep 10 temp. |
