Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scalding, Precooking, and Chilling as Preliminary Canning Operations The scalding vessel employed in these studies consisted of an enamel-lined 10-gallon tank fitted with a block-tin steam coil. Its volume was therefore sufficiently great to allow the introduction of suitably large quantities of the test material without checking the vigorous boiling for more than a few seconds. For some of the work, a wire basket, specially constructed to fit the dimensions of the tank, was used, and in part of the work cheesecloth was substituted for this basket. A steam chamber suitably fitted with wire trays was used for the studies on steam treatment, and enamel-ware buckets were used for the cold-water treatment of the scalded materials. The source of heat was the 60-horsepower steam boiler used for general purposes, which furnished abundant steam under pressure for all needs. No tests using small kettles or steamers on the stove or open flame were made. In those experiments involving the canning of the test material, both the standard packers' tin cans and the glass jars in common household use were employed. Processing, when practiced, was done in a water bath of large capacity heated by a steam coil or in an autoclave, as the case required. The usual chemical laboratory equipment was used for the analytical work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
