Stage I. Preparation
Soak a casing in water at temperature 25-35 оС for 10 – 30 minutes.
It is recommended not to store soaked casing for more than 24 hours.
The casing that has not been used should be stored in protective polyethylene package.
Stage II. Stuffing
Stuffing is made on all kinds of automatic and semi-automatic equipment.
It is not recommended to be used for sausages to cut.

The main undisputable advantage of CRF fibrous casing is its stuffing ability. In optimal conditions overstuffing of 15-16% from a nominal caliber can be reached, but this figure is not quaranteed by the manufacturer.
If shirring with enlarged length of a casing in a shirring stick is needed, it is necessary to mind the its density increasing, and you should use a spindle of less diameter.
Stage III. Clipping
The casing is to be clipped on all kinds of clippers.

Stage V. Cooling
Spraying by cold water for 10-15 minutes, break for 5-7 minutes, then spraying again by water for 10 minutes up to temperature of 40-42 оС inside a sausage stick.
To ger wrinkled surface of the product exclude the stage of spraying.
Storage conditions
It is necessaru to store the casing in the manufacturer's package in closed, clean ad dry warehouse premises, without off-odors, protected from sunlight, at the distance not less than 1 meter from heaters, at temperature 15-20 °С and relative humidity of 60-70 %.
