We show that every ergodic, finite entropy transformation which satisfies the weak Pinsker property possesses a finite generator whose two-sided tail field is exactly the Pinsker algebra. This is proved by exhibiting a generator endowed with a block structure quite analogous to the one appearing in the construction of the Ornstein–Shields examples of non Bernoulli K-automorphisms. We also show that, given two transformations T1 and T2 in the previous class (i.e. satisfying the weak Pinsker property), and a Bernoulli shift B, if T1×B is isomorphic to T2×B, then T1 is isomorphic to T2. That is, one can ‘factor out’ Bernoulli shifts.
