Kvasny Prum. 1967; 13(7): 145-147 | DOI: 10.18832/kp1967019 
Taking one food industry plant as an example the author outlines a new comparison method which could be applied in food industry to determine what kind of fuel used for firing boilers gives maximum economy. Though the method has been developed primarily for the conditions typical in food industry, its generalizing conclusions can be applied to other industrial braches as well.(In Czech, English summary only)
Harmful microorganisms interfering with brewing processes.Peer-reviewed article

Kvasny Prum. 1967; 13(7): 148-150 | DOI: 10.18832/kp1967020
The article deals with some kinds of microorganisms which - if their multiplication exceeds certain limits - disturb normal technological processes in breweries by deteriorating the quality of semi - products and thus also the quality of the final product, i. e. beer.(In Czech, English summary only)
Density of malt suspension.Peer-reviewed article

The density of the malt suspension is one of the quantities which must be known when designing equipment for continuous mashing. Suspensions prepared for measurements consisted of fine grained malt with constant fineness of grinding, i. e. 90 % and water, mixed in various weight proportions at 20˚ C. The tables included into the article cover a wide range of the X:1 combinations. Formulae have been derived for calculating the density against the mixing proportion. They can be applied, if the fineness of grinding and temperature are the same as indicated.(In Czech, English summary only)
Desalted molasses stillage as cattle feed.Peer-reviewed article

Experiments which have been carried out first on laboratory scale and later on an industrial one confirm that molasses stillage can be desalted very efficiently and economically by precipitating potassium - calcium sulphate. The process is very simple. The content of potassium can be reduced by 70 % and content of ashes in dry matter by 40 - 50 %. So far it is not clear, whether sludge, the amount of which is rather high, can be utilized as fertilizer or not. Thickened desalted stillage, if added to cattle daily rations in quantities not exceeding 1,5 kg per day, has no harmful effect and the increase of live weight is the same as with adding 1 kg...
