A method for producing aluminum can sheet comprising: providing a body made of an aluminum alloy type AA3004, AA3104 or other aluminum alloy suitable for making aluminum can sheet, wherein the step of providing a body made of an aluminium alloy comprises forming an aluminium alloy based on a composition comprising 80% or more aluminium scrap, wherein the aluminum alloy comprises the following chemical composition with all numbers in wt%: about 0.05 - 0.60 wt% Si; more than 0.60 wt% up to 0.80 wt% Fe; about 0.70 - 1.50 wt% Mn; about 0.80 - 1.50 wt% Mg; about 0.05 - 0.25 wt% Cu; up to 0.10 wt% Ti; up to 0.25 wt% Zn; and up to 0.15 wt% impurities; with the remainder as Al; homogenizing the body at a homogenization temperature of about 525°C or less; hot rolling the homogenized body in a single stand hot rolling mill to produce a hot rolled sheet, said hot rolled sheet exiting the single stand hot rolling mill at a hot rolling exit temperature lower than a hot rolling starting temperature with a hot mill exit gauge; annealing the sheet to form a recrystallized hot rolled sheet, wherein the step of annealing the sheet includes selectively self-annealing or furnace annealing the sheet to form a recrystallized hot rolled sheet, wherein (i) the sheet is self-annealed to a recrystallized annealed state while being coiled in the single stand reversing mill if the hot rolling exit temperature equals or exceeds a threshold temperature; (ii) the hot rolled sheet is transferred from the single stand reversing mill to a batch furnace and annealed in the batch furnace at an annealing temperature in a range at or above the hot rolling exit temperature to allow recrystallization of the hot rolled sheet to obtain a recrystallized annealed sheet, if the hot rolling exit temperature is below the threshold temperature; cold rolling the recrystallized annealed sheet to apply a cold reduction to produce a cold rolled sheet with a final gauge. providing a body made of an aluminum alloy type AA3004, AA3104 or other aluminum alloy suitable for making aluminum can sheet, wherein the step of providing a body made of an aluminium alloy comprises forming an aluminium alloy based on a composition comprising 80% or more aluminium scrap, wherein the aluminum alloy comprises the following chemical composition with all numbers in wt%: about 0.05 - 0.60 wt% Si; more than 0.60 wt% up to 0.80 wt% Fe; about 0.70 - 1.50 wt% Mn; about 0.80 - 1.50 wt% Mg; about 0.05 - 0.25 wt% Cu; up to 0.10 wt% Ti; up to 0.25 wt% Zn; and up to 0.15 wt% impurities; with the remainder as Al; homogenizing the body at a homogenization temperature of about 525°C or less; hot rolling the homogenized body in a single stand hot rolling mill to produce a hot rolled sheet, said hot rolled sheet exiting the single stand hot rolling mill at a hot rolling exit temperature lower than a hot rolling starting temperature with a hot mill exit gauge; annealing the sheet to form a recrystallized hot rolled sheet, wherein the step of annealing the sheet includes selectively self-annealing or furnace annealing the sheet to form a recrystallized hot rolled sheet, wherein (i) the sheet is self-annealed to a recrystallized annealed state while being coiled in the single stand reversing mill if the hot rolling exit temperature equals or exceeds a threshold temperature; (ii) the hot rolled sheet is transferred from the single stand reversing mill to a batch furnace and annealed in the batch furnace at an annealing temperature in a range at or above the hot rolling exit temperature to allow recrystallization of the hot rolled sheet to obtain a recrystallized annealed sheet, if the hot rolling exit temperature is below the threshold temperature; (i) the sheet is self-annealed to a recrystallized annealed state while being coiled in the single stand reversing mill if the hot rolling exit temperature equals or exceeds a threshold temperature; (ii) the hot rolled sheet is transferred from the single stand reversing mill to a batch furnace and annealed in the batch furnace at an annealing temperature in a range at or above the hot rolling exit temperature to allow recrystallization of the hot rolled sheet to obtain a recrystallized annealed sheet, if the hot rolling exit temperature is below the threshold temperature; cold rolling the recrystallized annealed sheet to apply a cold reduction to produce a cold rolled sheet with a final gauge.
