The present application relates to methods for producing beverages with low levels of acids, cations and/or sugars. The methods comprise the step of removing acidic ions through an AX-REED membrane stack and optionally removing cations through a CX-REED membrane stack. In certain embodiments, the AX-REED and the CX-REEF membrane stacks are operated in parallel. The methods may also comprise a step of converting sugar to organic acid, while simultaneously removing the generated organic acid through the AX-REED membrane stack. The sugar may for example be converted with the aid of enzymes and/or microorganisms.

The invention relates to a deacidified juice, as well as a process for deacidifying a cranberry juice to be deacidified that is eluted on a bed or a weak anion exchange resin at a rate (BV/h) such that the deacidified cranberry juice leaving the elution has a pH=pKa.sub.1 (malic acid)<pH<pKa (benzoic acid).

The invention also relates to a food composition that comprises this deacidified fruit juice.

Provided herein are methods, systems, and computer-readable media for controlling a deacidification process for an aqueous fluid circulated through a deacidification column. A first pH value, indicative of a pH of the fluid before circulation through the column, is obtained from a first sensor located at an entry of the column. A second pH value, indicative of a pH of the fluid after circulation through the column, is obtained from a second sensor located at an exit of the column. The second pH value is compared to a target pH value for the fluid to determine a pH difference between the second pH value and the target pH value. Based on the first and second pH values, a deacidification capacity of the column is determined. A fluid flow rate of the fluid through the column is adjusted based on the pH difference and the deacidification capacity.
