Popis: | The effect of fill weight on the F-value delivered to two different styles of green beans heated in a FMC Sterilmatic processing continuous cooker/cooler was evaluated biologically as a function of container fill weight. Four different fill weights of each product, French-style and l-inch cut green beans, were evaluated. All tests were carried out at least two times. F-values were measured using biological indicator units (BIU) filed with a suspension of BaciNus stearothermophilus spores and calibrated at 121.0°C. The F(250° F)-value decreased 2–3 min when the fill weight in 300 × 406 cans was increased from 11.5 to 13.0 oz. |
