4 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
4.1 Evaluation of Jamu Gendong Production Process
Results from observation Table 1 showed that jamu gendong processing from both producers
did not meet the standard requirements for good production practices.
Almost all standard in the check sheet was violated except for processing water, health and some production area requirements because the
producers did not have the basic knowledge of sanitation and good production practices.

Process Control
Observation results from both producers almost show the same pattern of processing procedures. Raw materials did not undergo proper cleaning. Although
herbs that was used were fresh, most of them still had soil on them and only undergo simple rinsing without having extra effort on removing the soils
throughly. Worker did not perform a systematic production process. Both producers sometimes tend to go back a production step whenever they forgot
something which could lead to cross contamination, no written standardized formula for the extracts were available, carelessness of use of toolsutensils that
may lead to contamination and no habits of hand washing. They were not even aware as to why they had to wash hands, meanwhile, the extraction in the filtering
process was handled barehanded. Sanitation
For sanitation, cleaning tools and materials were available such as broom, mop, soapdetergentsanitizer, brush and wash sponge except for a proper brush to
clean the inside of bottles for producer A. During observation, there were an improper tasking of cleaning tools on producer A. Brush that was used to clean
the floors of toilet was also used to clean the outsides of bottles and sink. Even though both producers had soapdetergent for cleaning and hand washing, they
were not used sometimes. Evaluation
