Two laboratories - stationary and mobile ones are engaged in determining quality and condition of grain.

The enterprise buys wheat first of all from agricultural firm "Vinogradov". This grain has got special characteristics and intended for processing into spirit. It is characterized with lowered contents of gluten and greater proportion of cellulose. An annual stock of high-quality raw material for distillery "Chisty Klutchi" occupies approximately half of the warehouse premises.

Moreover, it is also other grain producers of Izmalkovsky region that deliver grain here. During a year it is shipped for needs of Lipetsk oblast.

Due to mechanization and good organization of the business the collective consisting of 33 person copes with a large volume of work. At the time of harvesting the enterprise accepts up to one and a half thousand tons of grain a day that is up to 150 trucks of "KamAZ" type.

First of all, wheat is purified and its humidity is brought up to the necessary standard. During the storage there is supported the mode of active ventilation when fresh air is blown through the whole thickness of the grain to constitute from four to five meters. There are carried out actions directed against insects being the barn pests.

The grain is shipped to consumers mainly in rail carriages.

As well as on other objects of this type, there is a processing manufacture here that is a mill producing flour and a unit transforming millet into peeled millet that is the so-called "prosorushka".

There has been planned radical rebuilding and extension of the grain accepting enterprise. The main objects of new construction are the grain elevator towers that are silos with a full complex of mechanisms and automatics. The capacity of storage will increase more than twice reaching 55 thousand tons.
