Chapter 452 Cereal Production

With that, the Head supervisor left the scene..... and Muriel, Kate and the rest followed their sector supervisors into the building quietly

The building itself was very wide too, and had several entrance/exit points that Muriel could spot just from afar.

Muriel looked at the 4-storey building in awe.

’How exciting!’

.

The group followed the sector supervisor until they finally arrived at their sector.

"Everyone!

Before allocating you all to different sectors, you all will first be given a general overview of our production process.

Right now, there are already 120 workers within the Corn Flakes sector.

These workers were brought in from different departments within the food industry.

So they have more experience when dealing or working with the machines and tools here.

Many of these workers have already worked in the food industry for close to 3 years now.

So with that said, in the future, if any of you face any problems.... please feel free to consult them at any time.

And to make it easier on you all, since they have already been properly trained on cereal production for the past month..... for each division within our sector, I will appoint 3 division supervisors from their group.

So please consult them first before coming to my office for any concerns.

And if it’s something that concerns their morals and ethics... then please follow the protocol for such scenarios and I will get back to you all then.

Any questions?"

Everyone looked around, and when they saw no hands up in the air some .... they immediately replied.

"No sir!"

"No questions sir!"

"No!"

"_"

"Since there are no questions, then let’s begin!"

.

With that, they immediately walked towards a room that had several conveyor belts, white metal tanks and equipment within it.

The room was as large as a warehouse, and occupied 50% of the ground floor.UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m

Trucks came in and dumped what they were carrying onto several conveyor belts, and the machines and workers immediately sorted the raw materials out.

Just one look, and one could see that this room catered to all different sectors within the cereal department.

"Well.... we will be using Corn Kernels!"

"_"

Everyone looked at him deeply and tried really hard to imagine this cereal thing.

Weren’t corn kernels just raw unpopped popcorn?

So will this cereal also pop like popcorn too?

.

After looking through division 1 thoroughly, Muriel and the rest continued on to the Corn Flakes sector within the building.

Here, they immediately continued their grand tour at the sector’s Division 2.

"This division is where we process raw materials.

On my right, are storage tanks used for storing liquid raw materials..... and to my left, are storage tanks for the solid raw materials that are sent from Division 1."

Muriel looked at the massive Silver tanks that had corn kernels constantly being dumped into them by a series of conveyor belts.

"Alright!

Looking at the solid raw materials.... specific amounts are sent out to the grinders in batches, where they will be ground to our desired requirements.

The ground kernels are then sent to an industrial version of what is known as a pressure cooker."

Pressure cooker?

What was that?

Muriel searched her mind again, and new thought nothing like that existed in Baymard.

This industrial pressure cooker thing must be new.

Eh?

So it just cooked the Kernels in industrial batches?

She looked at the massive industrial pressure cooker which was essentially a massive horizontal tank.

.

"We have 12 industrial pressure cookers at the moment.

So when specific amounts of ground kernels are placed in the cookers.... the operator will lock the lid, and the system will pipe water and flavouring directly into the cooker.

From there, we leave each batch to cook for 3 hours tops."

As they listened to the supervisor, they also watched the operators and workers control the equipment too.

"Sir... why is the cooker now rotating?"

"It rotates for an even distribution of heat, and even cooking within the grains."

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement and later followed their supervisor towards Division 3.
