What is cold-filling? Depending on the product application, the definition of cold-filling can vary greatly. Based on our conversations with several industry experts, we will ... define cold-fill temperatures as anything below the hot-fill range of 170-195°F and the pasteurization range of approximately 165-250°F. Cold-fill can range from just above freezing on through ambient temperatures all the way up to the boundary of hot-fill. So, we’re talking about 34° F-160°F -- a tremendous expanse.

OBS

Some processors opt to "cold"-fill(or ambient-fill) at slightly higher than room temperatures to prevent condensation on the packaging. Some choose to cold-fill at temperatures below 45°F to optimize flavor freshness. For still other operations and products, a "cold"-fill of 150-160°F may be the most appropriate option. Ketchup for example, might be "cold"-filled at up to 160°F. Some juices, on the other hand, might benefit from a "cold"-fill at 120-140°F.

When the Directive came into effect, the Department created an Authorization request for non-imperative staffing form, whereby managers simply check off one of two options to justify the non-imperative staffing action. We believe that this process encourages managers to depart from the policy and consequently does not respect the spirit of section 91. Managers should be required to justify their decision to opt for non-imperative staffing in more detail.

A piggyback mortgage loan is a second loan that closes at the same time as the first mortgage loan. Typically the first mortgage loan is only 80 percent of the home value. ... A piggyback loan is usually for 10 percent of the remaining balance, after that the purchaser has to come up with the rest as a down payment.

Homeowners who don’t have 20 percent for a down payment and don’t want to pay PMI can opt for a piggyback loan, which is essentially a home equity loan that funds a portion of the down payment.

According to Laurent Lesage, entomologist with Agriculture Canada, the common term "gall fly" could refer to any insect, not necessarily a "fly" in the true sense of the term, which produces galls in a specific plant. If the recipient of the French translation of this term requires a more "down-to-earth" equivalent, he or she may opt for "mouche du chardon" or "mouche des fruits", depending on the host plant of the insect. If however he or she prefers a more generic term with a scientific flavour, then "téphrite des tiges" or "téphrite gallicole" would be used. Caution must be exercised when the author of the English text is referring to a species in particular(usually the Latin term is provided, e. g. Europhora cardui), in which case a suitable French equivalent would be "téphrite du chardon" or even "mouche du chardon"(depending on the linguistic level dictated by the text), "chardon"(thistle) being the preferred host-plant of this species. Only the Latin term is official; none of the French or English terms are.
