Water and heat consumption in breweries.Peer-reviewed article

V. VLČEK

Kvasny Prum. 1965; 11(9): 193-197 | DOI: 10.18832/kp1965026  

The article deals with the ways in which the breweries can reduce their water consumption. By far the greatest part of water is required for cooling the wort. Methods and equipment employed for processing wort determine also the degree to which the brewery in question can utilize its waste heat. One of the important sources of waste heat are vapours from brewhouses. Condensers of modern cooling installations can also save much heat. In the closing paragraph of his article the author calculates what economical effect can bring the method of wort cooling recommended by him as the best one.(In Czech, English summary only)

Interpendence between the presence of contaminating microorganisms and agglutination of bakery yeast.Peer-reviewed article

A. GINTEROVÁ, L. MITTERHAUSZEROVÁ, O. JANOTKOVÁ, E. JEŽOVÁ

Kvasny Prum. 1965; 11(9): 201-204 | DOI: 10.18832/kp1965027  

The authors describe the results of their research works on the effect microorganisms present in bakery yeast have upon its agglutination. In their experiments they isolated contaminating microorganisms from bakery yeast taken from shops. It is true that the presence of contaminating microorganisms contributes to agglutination, but the mechanism of the interdependence and character of influence are rather different from what has till now been accepted as a satisfactory explanation.(In Slovak, English summary only)

Losses of dry matter in non-alcoholic beverages during the manufacturing processes.Peer-reviewed article

V. V. RUDOLF

Kvasny Prum. 1965; 11(9): 205-207 | DOI: 10.18832/kp1965028  

Among the reasons of dry matter losses in non-alcoholic beverages during the manufacturing processes are inaccurate records of the amount, quality and moisture content of sugar, errors in the evaluation of invert sugar, poor utilization of sugar containing solutions, inaccurate corrections of readings on saccharometers and faulty ad justment of dosers. The article deals with the measurements of losses, their control and ways leading to their reduction.(In Czech, English summary only)
