The author,in conjunction with Feltmann, has also devised an appa-ratus, with some alterations, for the same purpose, and thishas been in use in the Heineckeii brewery, apparatus consists of two parts, a steriliser and afermenting vessel, of tinned copjier. The steriliser (Fig. 1)is I20 m. high, and OC m. diameter; it is closed by anair-tight lid, and has a jacket thnmgh w hich steam or coldwater can be passed.
