Division (c) Stem removal, selection by hand

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The adapted riddle system processes the dried camomile flowers which were tipped onto the stem-removing machine, removes the fallen petals, the middlings, the buds and any remaining impurities. The swing blades at the bottom and end of the riddle or topping rolls remove the stems, then the product arrives on the selection belt where it is subject to a further selection by hand and is packaged into 10 kg cardboard boxes for storage.
