Abstract

Brem is one of the typical souvenirs of Madiun, made from fermented sticky rice essence and then molded into rectangular pieces. Based on the results of observations and interviews conducted by the team proposing this activity with partner SMEs groups, data was obtained that the problem that needed to be resolved in the implementation of this activity was the pressing process. This is because the process of pressing the raw material for brem (glutinous rice) to extract the juice is done manually by using simple tools such as square wooden placemats and levers made of bamboo. This causes the process of squeezing the raw material for brem (sticky rice) which is less hygienic and takes a relatively long time (30 minutes/5 kg). So far, this group of SMEs often has difficulty meeting market needs due to the limitations of inadequate production equipment. The methods used to achieve these objectives are by designing, manufacturing, assembly, function testing, handover, machine operation/maintenance training, mentoring and monitoring. Based on the application of the machine in partner SMEs, the result is that the process of pressing the raw material for Brem is faster. It takes 30 minutes to press 5 kg of original Brem raw material to 5 minutes. In addition, the quality of the pressing results becomes lmore hygienic because it uses foodgrade material (stainless steel). With this activity, it indirectly participates in the success of government programs in supporting the existence of SMEs in supporting the national economy.
