Start homogenizing and cooling. When batch reaches 55°C start sweep mixing and continue cooling. At 50°C or lower, add H with mixing. When batch is smooth, add I with mixing and replace any water lost to evaporation. Mix until again smooth and at desired filling temperature. Stop cooling and mixing, perform final quality assurance checks, and package product
