A self-contained, continuous flow pasteurizer is herein disclosed. Such a pasteurizer comprises a first tank and a second tank interconnected by a pasteurization conduit. A single pump pumps fluids from the first tank to the second tank at a predetermined flow rate. Fluids are heated to their desired pasteurization temperature in a first section of the conduit and are held at this temperature while flowing through a second section of the conduit. Fluids not reaching the desired pasteurization temperature do not pass into the second section of the conduit but are recirculated back to the first tank by a recirculation valve and conduit connected between the first tank and the pasteurization conduit. A third section of the conduit passes through a cooling structure so that the fluid flowing in the conduit will be cooled down from its pasteurization temperature before being deposited in the second tank.
