On June 7th, JCS hosted its Annual Charity Golf Tournament in Bardstown, Kentucky, benefiting the Wounded Warriors Foundation and what an incredible day it was! This year we had a larger group of Distillers and Sponsors come together and spend a sunny day at Bardstown Country Club golf course. The day was filled with friendly competition, valuable conversations, and memorable moments with colleagues from the bourbon industry. Here’s a brief recap of the highlights of this remarkable event!
JCS Process & Control Systems, an industry leader in beverage batching and processing technologies, has announced plans to open the UltraPhil Center for Aseptic Excellence, the world’s first and only small scale, bottle-based pilot aseptic research, development and production center.
A great time was had at the first annual JCS Golf Tournament hosted at My Old Kentucky Home golf course in Bardstown, Kentucky. This event brought many local distillers and JCS partners together to benefit the Lifting Spirits Foundation, a non- profit organization that supports workforce development issues and initiatives within the distilled spirits industry. We’re proud to say this event raised $8,320 for the Lifting Spirits Foundation, and cheers to all those involved.
Have you always dreamt of working at a company that had a family feel but the sophistication of a large company? Do you prefer being known for who you are and the contributions that you make each day instead of feeling like you’re just a number? Do you want to work for an organization that cuts through the bureaucracy and instead is nimble and flexible with its approach? Then JCS might just be for you.
Everyone wants to start out with new equipment, but the current economic climate requires many companies to keep getting more out of their existing assets.
What is an engineering study? How is it useful? Why should I pay for one? These are all great questions. First, at JCS, an engineering study is useful when a customer needs to identify a problem, or multiple problems within their systems in their facility. Paying for an engineering study, or engineering evaluation, allows an outside organization to come into your facility with a fresh perspective to look at the big picture. Whether trying to identify possible contamination points creating micro counts on a low acid aseptic line, identifying areas for improvement in yields, or even looking at ways to treat your product better during processing for improved quality; an engineering study brings the perspective of outside engineering experts to evaluate, provide data, and a detailed report to assist you to make the best business decision.
Data Capture is the first step towards process improvement. No matter the industry that you are in, if you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it. In the Food and Beverage processing industry, this is not an exception. For process control systems, data capture is a vital part of the overall system and is what validates the finished product. JCS has developed a standardized approach to data capture for each control process - batching, blending, clean in place (CIP) systems, and ultra-high temperature (UHT) systems - to record data for regulatory, troubleshooting, process optimization and reporting purposes.
