These small machines are perfectly simple, work quite noiselessly,and can easily be worked by a person of ordinary intelligence fromthe printed instructions supplied with each machine. They need verylittle attention, and the wear and tear and consequent need of repairsis almost ftil. No increase in the staff of engineers is necessitated, as * Extract from Paper read before the Institute of Brewing, by Mr Alex. Marcet,, Managing Director, J. & E. Hall Limited.
