Abstract: A malt beverage comprising a fermentation product made from water, malt, hops, yeast and containing Aspartame, with or without minor constituents such as water treatment salts, yeast food, etc. The concentration of Aspartame is between 4 and 450 ppm (weight/volume) of the final product, and preferably is between 4 and 20 ppm (weight/volume) of the final product. The malt beverage containing Aspartame is made by a method comprising the addition of Aspartame to the malt beverage at least after the boiling operation, and preferably after final filtration of the beverage.

Abstract: Wort, heated to boiling in a brew kettle, is continuously withdrawn from the brew kettle and passed through a copper heat exchange coil in an external heat exchanger. Hot combustion gases are discharged at high velocity into direct contact with the heat exchange coil to thereby heat the wort flowing through the coil to a temperature in the range of 220.degree. to 240.degree. F. The heated wort is then returned to the brew kettle and discharged at a location beneath the level of the wort in the kettle. The direct firing of the wort in the copper heat exchange coil provides improved flavor characteristics for the beer.

Abstract: An apparatus for pressure testing a can body. The apparatus includes a housing having a pivotable cover and an empty can with the lid attached is placed in a cradle in the housing. As the cover is moved to the closed position, a hollow needle, operably connected to the cover, is automatically inserted through the wall of the can body. On locking of the cover in the closed position, an electric circuit can be established to introduce gas under pressure through the needle into the can body. A readout of the pressure required to bulge the can body is given, thereby indicating whether the can body meets manufacturing specifications.
