The chilli paste is preheated at 85-95 deg celsius. The product is passed through the evaporator for producing concentrated products. The chilli paste is sterilized at 101-108 degrees Celsius and cooled. The product is finally packed in aseptic bags. The aseptic bags are stored in MS drums with polyliner inside. These drums are stored at ambient warehouses.
