Scoville Scale
The chemist Wilbur Lincoln Scoville designed a scale to measure the degree of spiciness in chili peppers, often we find it indicated by the abbreviation SHU (Scoville Heat Units) which indicates the amount of capsicina contained.
At the beginning the tests were done by diluting the extract of chili with sugar and water, the more the product was diluted and the higher was its Scoville gradation, the test was performed by 5 tasters until finding the zero point. Subsequently, thanks to the technology, very sophisticated machines have been devised, such as HPLC (High performance liquid chromatography), which have now replaced the sensitivity of man with sophisticated and precise machines.
