Abstract
A heater for liquid foodstuffs has a pipe through which the foodstuff flows and electrodes spaced along the pipe to drive a heating current through the foodstuff. In the embodiment, the electrode is a platinum coated cylinder arranged transversely in an enlarged part of the pipe so that electric current flows to the electrode only over a smooth surface portion, entirely within the edges of the exposed electrode surface.
