Our Milling Process:
Paddy is the raw format of Rice. Selection of paddy is a process where a rice mill should devote most of its energies, expertise and time. Quality of final product largely depends upon the paddy used. Before paddy is purchased, it is subjected to pass through various tests. This includes inspection and tests for moisture contents, kett-test, field admixture etc. Samples are then processed in the mini mill to determine yield, and after-cooking characteristics. Only the best quality is purchased for the processing.
The selected Basmati paddy is then processed to slowly reduce its moisture by natural-sun-drying-method, to achieve optimum moisture content for husking. Paddy is spread over large fields during the day and left for drying in the sun. This gradual drying helps to avoid thermal cracks in the rice grains, which would result in broken grains at later stages.
It is a main property of the Rice that it increases its taste and aroma when it is seasoned for almost nine months. This makes warehousing one very important step in the whole production process.Rice is stored in well-ventilated and spacious warehouses of the company. During the period rice remains in warehouses, Rice is kept under regular inspection and fumigation from time-to-time against infestations by organisms.
The original process of Milling starts with the cleaning of rice. This is a multi-step process where foreign material like soil, straws, stones, paddy and other particles are removed from the rice. To get the accuracy in purified rice, High performance pre-cleaners and classifiers are used.
Rice is a delicate grain; requires extra care in processing. Any rough handling during processing can cause the grains to break or develop cracks. Rice is allowed to pass through mist polishers which impart an extremely clean and glossy white appearance to the Basmati.
After rice is whitened and polished then it is graded by both thickness and length grading. Through this process broken and shriveled rice is separated from head rice to a very high percentage of accuracy. For this purpose high technology machines are used.
The final step in rice processing is color sorting. This process is performed to remove low colored grains from processed rice to give the final product a uniform-color look. This is performed to remove all kinds of contaminations like yellow grains, discolored grains, damaged grains, stones and foreign matters from processed rice to give the final product a uniform-color look. Sheraz Corporation uses Satake of Japan, Color Sorter, Color Master 120 Channel that is the latest version in this highly acclaimed series of color sorters.
