Tech Update: Beverage Improvements Take Center Stage
The latest advances in processing, packaging and quality assurance were on display at this year’s edition of InterBev.
If InterBev exhibits are any indication, batch mixing is becoming an after-thought in beverage processing. In-line continuous mixing & blending systems are gradually supplanting batch tanks, thanks to greater product-handling flexibility, short cleaning cycles that minimize downtime and greater consistency in finished products. The elimination of expensive holding tanks also frees valuable floor space, a welcome change in most plants.
