An integrated filling and pasteurizing apparatus comprising a filling machine and a pasteurizing machine. The pasteurizing machine having a balance tank for temporary storage of the product to be pasteurized, and a pasteurizing station coupled to receive the product from the balance tank and to deliver the pasteurized product to the filling machine. The filling machine includes a hopper coupled to receive pasteurized product from the pasteurizing station, a container-filling station connected to the output of the hopper, and drive mechanisms for sequentially delivering containers to be filled to the filling station and for sequentially moving filled containers from the filling station to a container-closure station. Control mechanisms provide controlled operation of the drive mechanisms permitting synchronous operation of the pasteurizing machine and of the filling machine and include liquid level sensor devices assoicated with the hopper of the filling machine for governing the indexing rate of the drive mechanisms.
