FDA has standardized Brix data for a variety of juices (§ 101.30(h)) but this table does not include all of the common fruit/vegetable juices used to formulate products today (e.g., coconut water, acai juice). Does FDA plan to update the Brix table in § 101.30(h)?

We are not planning to update the Brix table in 21 CFR 101.30(h) at this time. The mechanism for requesting the addition to the table of a Brix level for a single strength juice is the submission of a Citizen Petition (CP) (21 CFR 10.30). The addition to the table in § 101.30(h)(1) of a Brix level for a new single strength juice would require FDA to amend the regulation to update the table.
