Summary

ON A CONSTANT TIME BASIS, CONTINUOUS MASSAGING APPEARED SUPERIOR TO INTERMITTENT MASSAGING AND SHORTER REST PERIODS WERE SUPERIOR TO LONGER REST PERIODS WHERE INTERMITTENT MASSAGING WAS USED. HIGH PUMP LEVELS (30, 35%) GAVE CORRESPONDINGLY HIGHER COOK SHRINK LOSSES AND LOWER BIND VALUES (ADHESION) THAN LOW PUMP LEVELS. IDEAL ENVIRONMENTAL MASSAGING TEMPERATURE APPEARED TO BE BETWEEN 277.4 AND 283 K (4.4 AND 10 DEG C) FOR MAXIMIZING CURED COLOUR DEVELOPMENT AND YIELD. BIND WAS REDUCED AT 283 K ; HOWEVER, NO PROBLEM IN SLICE DURABILITY WAS EXPERIENCED.
