CANDY (HARD) (Continual)
Hot rooms used in the drying of jellies and gums are maintained at 120 to 150 F. A purge system 100 percent outside air, bypassing the heating coil, is incorporated^toproduce rapid cooling of both the product and the room.
Cold rooms for cooling marshmallows and cast creams are maintained at 75 to 80 F with a relative hu midity of 46 to 50 percent. Uniform air distribution is essential.
Standard starch drying equipment is employed.
Filtration of air is required.

Relative humidity has no effect on the manufacture of the products. Temperature and humidity must be controlled in the decorating shop in the whiteware plants, and the decaJcomonia production room. Dust control is essential, and the dust count must be held down to four million particles per cubic foot doe
to the danger of silicosis.

Careful consideration must be given to air volumes, air temperatures, humidity, ventilation and dis
tribution. In regions where end rot is prevalent, it may be necessary to store grapefruit at temperatures of 32 to 84 F
for a period not exceeding six weeks. Lemon and grapefruit storage requires an air conditioning system to (1) maintain a constant temperature,
(2) maintain a high relative humidity, (3) ventilate to maintain 0.1% COi content, (4) obtain uniform air
distribution, and (5) provide air washing or air filtration. Load calculations include (1) transmission losses. (2) internal load-fruit oooling and respiration, cooling
fruit boxes, electric load, and people, and (3) outside sir load--72 cfm per carlot. Specific heat--Btu per (lb) (F deg): Lemons 0.04, Grapefruit 0.87, Boxes 0.40

Approximately 10 percent of the cooling load is considered as latent heat load. In a conventional system the air required is one cfm per storage box or G50 cfm per carload, resulting in a small temperature rise in the supply air making possible the required high humidities. In a combination system the air required is one cfm per sq ft of floor area or 300 cfm per carlot with the addition of auxiliary humidifying nozzles to maintain the required high humidities. Installation of metal ducts is required. Ductwork made of insulation board is sometimes preferred.

Yeast culture fermented at 170 F, then cooled to 70 to 72 F. Yeast propagated at 150 to 154 F.
Mash heated to 165 F and then cooled to 80 F, then pitched with yeast and fermented at maximum tem perature of 85 F.
Cooling for various distilling processes normally accomplished by use of river or well water depending on temperatures and availability.
Low humidity and dust control important where grains are ground. tionV.iscous filters preferred as mold spores and bacteria are trapped in the viscous film, preventing propaga
