En esta página de wikepedia hay un esquema con todos los diferentes tamaños de kegs, y dice que hay un "mini-keg" de 5 litros. También menciona que un barril es más grande que un keg. HIH

Since keg sizes are standardized, the keg can be used as a standard unit of measure for liquid volumes. This size standard, however, varies from country to country, with many countries using the metric system rather than U.S. gallons.A full keg isa 15.5 U.S. gallon barrel, routinely called a half-barrel. A half keg or pony keg is therefore called a quarter-barrel and has a volume of 7.75 U.S. gallons. Generally a keg is a vessel smaller than a barrel; thus, it is 30 gallons or smaller.[2]en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keg - 44k - Cached

Teju: Corrección Muchas gracias por la corrección, efectivamente lo correcto es lo que indicas: "the effect increased" or "the effect kept increasing". He escogido la segunda alternativa.

A small suggestion: "the effect increased" or "the effect kept increasing"... Saludos Eugenio.

"Incremental profits" si quieres salir de la idea de "incremental sales".

Saludos!

Yo siempre lo he visto como "keg". "Barrel" me suena a un barril mucho más grande o más antiguo.

Sé que Google no es la "Biblia", pero he puesto "5 liter beer barrel" y obtuve 3 resultados, mientras que "5 liter beer keg" obtuvo más de 2.000.

Hope that helps!
Note from asker:
Estimado Daniel: me gustaría que me dijeras si sería más correcto emplear "keg", en toda la traducción en lugar de "barrel". El estudio se refiere a un "barrilito" de 5 litros de cerveza. Gracias.
