"McIver Engineering & PRO Engineering… Powering the Future of Pasteurization"

SMALL BATCH, BIG IMPACT:

Milwaukee, WI July 3rd, 2025 – In a powerful display of innovation and collaboration, McIver Engineering & Controls and PRO Engineering / Manufacturing Inc. are proud to announce their continued partnership in delivering precision-powered pasteurization solutions to beverage producers across North America.

From startup craft brewers to high-volume beverage brands, PRO Engineering’s trusted pasteurization systems are built to meet the demands of today’s rapidly evolving beverage industry. At the heart of each system is the custom control technology provided by McIver Engineering—ensuring every pasteurization cycle runs efficiently, consistently, and safely.

“At McIver Engineering, our mission is to create control systems that bring our clients’ visions to life,” said McIver Engineering & Controls. “Our collaboration with PRO Engineering is a textbook example of what happens when two innovative teams work together with a shared focus on quality, reliability, and growth.”

Turnkey Pasteurization Starting at $25K

Ideal for small-batch beverage producers, startup breweries, and R&D labs, PRO Engineering’s batch pasteurizers provide an affordable entry point into professional-grade pasteurization. With complete systems available starting at just $25,000, these machines deliver serious performance—enabled by McIver’s high-precision control panels that keep each operation running smoothly.

“We wanted to create a solution that was both scalable and accessible to emerging brands,” said PRO Engineering. “McIver’s controls give our machines the reliable automation needed to meet the expectations of today’s beverage producers—whether they’re pasteurizing 50 bottles or 5,000.”

Built to Scale, Engineered to Lead

This partnership underscores a mutual commitment to helping beverage manufacturers succeed—from first product launches to large-scale national distribution. As PRO Engineering continues to expand its line of tunnel and batch pasteurizers, McIver Engineering is positioned to scale its custom control systems accordingly supporting PRO’s growth and that of its customers.

Together, the two companies are making industrial-grade pasteurization more efficient, affordable, and reliable than ever before.

Let’s Build the Future of Beverage Together

Whether you’re perfecting a craft recipe or streamlining national production, PRO Engineering and McIver Engineering offer a combined solution for pasteurization excellence powered by precision automation.

  By   Edward A. Michalski   CEO   PRO Engineering/Manufacturing, Inc.   Tunnel pasteurizers are efficient and effective machines that are available in numerous sizes. The food and beverage industries use them to kill microbes, stop fermentation and in general, provide shelf stability.  These machines are subject to significant heat variations, caustic cleaning chemicals, steam, water, huge mechanical stresses and in many applications, broken bottles.  PRO Engineering/Manufacturing, Inc. has been maintaining, repairing and re-engineering tunnel pasteurizers for over four decades. PRO designs and builds our own tunnel pasteurizers and refurbishes competitor’s machines.  There are different types of tunnel pasteurizers classified by the mechanism that moves the pasteurized product through the tunnel.   Walking Beam   This is an older configuration that employs alternating strips, pick...

TUNNEL PASTEURIZATION PROCESS FOR BREWMASTERS & THEIR BEER

By -

  Authored By   Jaime Jurado Pasteurization is an important unit operation in beer processing that inactivates the spoilage microorganisms present in beer thereby extending its shelf life. Pasteurization is the reduction of microorganisms by heating to a limited temperature and holding at that temperature such that there will be minimum effect on physical stability and flavor and a maximum extension of biological stability.    When the effect of pasteurization on the microbiological and sensory quality of white grape juice and wine was investigated by a UC Davis team, heat treatment of less than 3 Pasteurization Units (PUs = minutes at 60°C or equivalent) was sufficient to reduce 10 6  cells/mL of  Saccharomyces cerevisiae  and  Hansenula   anomala  added to Chenin blanc juice to an undetectable level (1).  Most brewers in the world pasteurize beer, including many craft breweries.  The organisms which cause the most difficulty in the bre...

  By   Edward A. Michalski   CEO   PRO Engineering/Manufacturing, Inc.   Short Video of Article Release for Brewmasters & Beverage Makers by   Edward A. Michalski,   CEO of PRO Engineering / Manufacturing Inc. Video Excerpt: “ Craft brewers take pride in the unique flavors of their brews and rightly so. They work hard to get that special taste. Craft brewers have shied away from pasteurization due to the mistaken belief that pasteurizing changes the taste of beer, when in fact, pasteurization preserves the taste. A general rule of thumb is that pasteurizing a brew will age it three days in terms of quality and taste. The optimal step in pasteurizing is to monitor the Pasteurization Units or P.U.s, in the process with the use of a P.U. monitor. For over 40 years, PRO Engineering and Manufacturing, Inc. has been delivering solutions for beverage product shelf stability and consumption safety. …” Video Link: https://lnkd.in/e4VyF_Yq For mor...
