Changes to the Bottling Factory:
From Hand-Bottling to Automation (photo date: 1931)
-----
In 1931, a plant featuring full-scale bottling machinery was set up under the steel-frame pillar-less dome of the Gekkeikan Showagura Brewery in Katahara-cho, Fushimi-ku, Kyoto, and bottling was done using a production line. Ten empty bottles bound together would be brought in at a time and automatically washed in a washing machine, then, following sterilization, be placed on a line that could fill a thousand bottles an hour. At the time, this was the most advanced equipment in the industry. Eighteen filled 1-sho bottles of sake would be placed in a wooden box and shipped out nationwide by steam train from the nearest national railways (now JR) station, Momoyama. At the time, barreled sake still accounted for 60% of the market, but at Gekkeikan, bottled sake became increasingly dominant. The building, with its steel-frame dome, still stands, and still houses advanced machinery for filling 1-sho bottles.
