The aroma produced and which is noticeable when the wax is heated will indicate the degree to which the tendency of the wax to destroy been overcome. The following will indicate atypical procedure which has been found satisfactory.
A suitable amorphous wax of thetyp eabove stituents, and have the flavor of the'beer has unchecked surface devoid of irregularities, we
. preferably include in the same a check inhibiting agent or means to overcome diflerences in surface tension, namely, a high melting point amorphous wax derived either from a mineral or vegetable source which has been hydrogenated for, the purpose of increasing the melting point and hardness; or treated by solvent extraction with filtering or centrifuging to obtain. similar properties. We refer in particular to the I. G.
waxes of commerce as sold by the General Dyestuif Corp.,, under the designation I. G.-Waxes" as for example the'I. G. waxes in the 0. P. and
-A. D. forms. Thesewaxes are represented as being free from impurities or unessentialconhighly desirable amorphous characteristics;
vIn'- the use .of these, waxes in small amounts with the container lining wax we flnd that they may occasion a precipitation ofsmall amount of substances when'the meltfis made; in which. case mentioned, or a combination of waxes, is-melted and thoroughly mixed, and brought to a temperature of substantially 190 F. before adding the hops. A mass of hops within a'fabric bag is then lowered into the wax melt. The mixture should be kept at approximately 190 F. for a period, of time, such as an hour. or two, before itis desirable to fllter oil' the precipitate as for example through' cheesecloth. We prefer to use lifromseven tenths ofonepercen't to two percent removing the bag containing the hops. ;'Ihe pe riod during which the hops is retained in the wax maybe varied in accordance with the.
strength of the aroma desired, and this willlvary with different waxes, depending upon their tendency toneutralize the beer flavor as may readily detennined. t
The amount of hops to be introduced need not exceed approximatelytwo and a half pounds 'to approximately eight hundred pounds of wax,
although this amount may be varied, depending upon the strength of hops aroma and the wax Generally, we have found that approximately three. tenths of one percent of good quality of hops will be' adequate.

if desired, the hops maybe directly intro-' duced into the batch and strained from the wax when the latter is poured into molds. Y
Instead of hops, we may use essence'or oil of" hope in small quantities, or Lupu1in, i. e., a powder collected from the strobiles of hops.

Forexample, a wax composition for lining containers for grape Juice may be impregnated with oil of grape, and similarly lining compositions for containers for citric juices, such as orange or lemon Juice, maybe The essence of hops may be imparted to the" wax by allowing said 'wax to flowr in a hop impregnated-atmosphere for a time, or subject-' ing the wax in a thin layer to such atmosphere at normaltemperature as for example, by treating of cans already lined with wax. .The lined cans may be slowly conducted through a chamher. the atmosphere of which is suitably ladened with hops aroma, and any desired pressure may be maintained in thechamber in order to insure a suitable impregnation of'the wax with'the hoos aroma. i
