Distinguish preparation from blending
Identify whether cooked potato base is supplied or needs an upstream preparation process. The mixing tank receives the ingredients assigned to its scope; it does not replace unlisted peeling, cutting or cooking machinery.
Review starch and heat-transfer behaviour
Describe product viscosity during heating and cooling, the largest intended particle and the risk of deposits. These conditions affect agitation, pump selection, exchanger arrangement and accessible inspection points.
Make cleaning part of the duty
Share the recipe changeover frequency and cleaning expectations. Closed transfer circuits can be assessed for CIP, while open ingredient addition and accessible machine parts may require separate manual cleaning procedures.
