Testing the malting properties of new barley sorts.Peer-reviewed article
J. URBÁNEK
Kvasny Prum. 1960; 6(8): 171-174 | DOI: 10.18832/kp1960034 
The article shows that it is necessary to verify the properties of new sorts of barley by malting several batches and brewing beer, and to collect thus data for comparing new sorts of barley by malting several ones. This the only possible way to safeguard the required high quality of malt and beer. Final decision, whether the sort in question should be recommended for some districts or repudiated must be based on thorough tests.(In Czech, English summary only)
Laboratory equipment for through passing continuous cultivation of microbes.Peer-reviewed article
J. ŘIČICA, J. HOSPODKA
Kvasny Prum. 1960; 6(8): 175-177 | DOI: 10.18832/kp1960035
The article contains a detailed description of a laboratory equipment for batch as well as continuous single-step as also multi-step cultivation of microbes. The volume of the nutritive medium can be changed from 500 ml to 2000 ml. The equipment can be used for aerobic as well as anaerobic cultivation. The equipment incorporates and efficient agitator and aerating system, temperature and pH controls, gas analyzators for determination of O2 and CO2 content, turbidity indicator and metering device introducing foam damping chemicals. Necessary operations are perfomed mainly automatically. All the parameters of the process, which...
Comparison of biochemical properties of two sorts of baker9s yeast.Peer-reviewed article
A. GINTEROVÁ, V. STUCHLÍK, L. MITTERHAUSZEROVÁ
Kvasny Prum. 1960; 6(8): 178-180 | DOI: 10.18832/kp1960036
The ability of yeast to ferment disaccharides have been studied on two samples, one of which was imported fromEngland, the second manufactured inCzechoslovakia. Different behaviour of two sorts of yeast are due to their biochemical features.(In Slovak, English summary only)
Evaporating installations for waste water in plant manufacturing torula yeast.Peer-reviewed article
V. SÁZAVSKÝ
Kvasny Prum. 1960; 6(8): 180-185 | DOI: 10.18832/kp1960037
The article deals with some problems connected with the evaporation and condensation of waste water emerging from manufacturing processes in the Uničov plant producing yeast of Torula class. Experience so far obtained with evaporating units indicates, that the installation suffers from extensive corrosion and incrustations. A suitable thermochemical treatment is therefore necessary prior to evaporation. It may include alkalization by introducing lime, overheating and filtration. After a suitable preliminary treatment regular evaporation can be expected and the installations can be manufactured of current materials. Relation between the boiling point...
