Selection Factors Apples
• Apples must be mature when picked to have a full flavor, proper texture, and storing ability. Sugar content can improve post-harvest, but the texture can begin to soften and the texture can become mealy.
• Immature apples lack color and are usually poor in flavor due to high malic acid content.
• Over ripeness in apples is indicated by a yielding to slight pressure on the skin, a soft, mealy flesh, and shriveling of the skin surface.
• Apples affected by freeze are indicated by internal breakdown and excessive bruised areas.
• Scald or other surface blemishes and cosmetic defects on apples may not seriously effect the eating quality of the apple.

Selection Factors Pears
• Pears are one of the few fruits that do not ripen successfully on the tree.
• They are harvested by hand when they reach full maturity but before they are ripe.
• Properly handled pears will ripen after they are harvested.
• Ripe fruit will give to gentle pressure. • Color depends on variety yet not all pears
change in color as they ripen.

Selection Factors - Grapes
Properly handled grapes exhibit a healthy “bloom” on the surface without mold or leaking fruit.
Firmly attached to predominantly green, pliable stems, with minimal shatter. Dried out brown stems are a sign of age and/or poor handling.
All types should appear plump, firm, deeply and uniformly colored throughout.
• Bleached areas around the stem or grapes lacking full color are likely to be immature and not fully flavored.
• Grapes that are well ripened are “ambered” (yellowish cast or straw colored tinge most pronounced near the stem).
