MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT
The raw material used is of course cinnamon or Cassiavera, while the equipment used is in the form of a strong knife and sharp edges for stripping and scraping and mats, or a place for drying.

WAYS OF MAKING
Stripping
In general cinnamon / cinnamomom is harvested after 4 years of age. Harvesting is done by peeling the bark, then cutting it down. The next step is to peel the branches and twigs. Taking the skin (stripping) can be done in various ways, one of which we will discuss as follows:

Exfoliation of bark
o The first stage of processing cinnamon, the skin on living tree trunks is cleaned of moss and dirt.
o The skin in position 5 ~ 10 cm above the root of the root is tightened around the stem until it touches the wood part of the stem. The second crust is made 100 cm above the first keratan.
o After the skin is scraped again vertically from the crust of the circle over the circle of the lower circle. This vertical crust is made of several fruits with a distance of 5 ~ 10 cm. Thus it will be obtained keratan keratan with a length of 100 cm and a width of 5 ~ 10 cm.
o Each keratan is fan by gouging it through a vertical line, then pulling it from top to bottom vertically. Thus the sheets of skin will be 100 cm long and 5 ~ 10 cm wide.
o The peeling is done until all the bark has been exfoliated.

Exfoliating branches and twigs
After exfoliating the bark, the next step is to cut down the plant by cutting the stem 10 cm above the root of the root. Then the branches on the branch are cut. Next the leaves and the parts that cannot be skinned on the branches, and the branches are cut into pieces. Branches and twigs are skinned with a knife. Large enough branches need to be cultivated such as barking to obtain high-quality skin sheets. This peeling process should be done carefully and carefully so that the quality of the cinnamon produced is also high.

Ripening
After the cinnamon bark has been peeled off, the next step is the freshly peeled bark of the bark for overnight by stacking the skin in a place protected from direct sunlight.

Erosion
To get a good quality of cinnamon, the width of the skin, which is the skin from the stem and the skin from a large enough branch, should be eroded outside, so that the skin becomes clean. Scrubbing is done with a sharp knife. Scrape can also be with mechanical devices that work like a drawstring machine (ketam).

Drying
o The next process, cinnamon bark is dried in the sun. In general, this drying stage is still traditionally done, namely using sunlight for approximately 3 ~ 4 days until the water content drops to 16%, or the weight of shrinkage materials up to 50%. During drying the ingredients must often be flipped. Obstacles to drying often produce material that is of poor quality because of its thickness. This is because rain often falls, or sunlight is covered in clouds. To overcome this, the drying process is recommended using a dryer.
o The skin of a material or branch that is large enough in the form of sheets, during drying will constrict to form a long roll similar to a stick. While the skin will form flakes or irregular slabs.

Storage
Dry Cassiavera is stored in a dry place that is not hot. Storage areas need to be avoided from mice and insects.
