Oleo saccharum making

Treat oleo saccharum as a declared peel-and-sugar batch followed by user-observed extraction checkpoints. Reconcile supplied masses and compare controlled trials without inventing a ratio, yield, concentration, or safe storage window.

1. Confirm the extraction job

Accept the job when citrus peel and sugar are being combined by weight for oil extraction.

Request	Route
Prepare or juice whole citrus	Fresh citrus preparation
Convert one syrup strength to another	Cocktail syrup conversion
Decide storage or later use	Qualified food-safety review
Supply cutting, produce-washing, or sanitation instructions	Applicable official guidance or qualified review
Certify a batch as safe from aroma or appearance	Refuse certification

Keep only the extraction record when a request crosses these boundaries. Physical preparation stays under the user's applicable handling plan.

Complete this step when one batch purpose, one citrus identity, and one peel-and-sugar extraction own the run.

2. Freeze the batch contract

Record the batch before evaluating it.

Field	Required record
Citrus	Identity and user-reported starting condition
Peel	Mass, scale resolution, tare method, and user-reported pith condition
Sugar	Identity, mass, scale resolution, and tare method
Added liquid	Identity and mass, or NONE
Equipment	Vessel, closure, agitation tool, filter, and receiving vessel
Handling basis	User-supplied reviewed preparation and sanitation plan
Contact plan	Start time, checkpoint times, contact conditions, and user-selected final checkpoint
Agitation	User-selected method and checkpoint schedule
Extraction targets	User-defined visible extraction state and minimum filtered recovery
Sensory record	User-defined aroma and bitterness targets
Visible-condition screen	Mold, unexpected gas, unexpected material, damage, or other supplied concern
Disposition	CURRENT SESSION ONLY or STORAGE NOT ASSESSED

Do not fill missing masses with a customary ratio. Never infer pith condition, handling quality, or a future-use window.

Emit STOPPED: REQUIRED BATCH EVIDENCE MISSING when peel mass, sugar mass, scale basis, citrus identity, equipment, handling basis, or contact plan is unknown. This stop has precedence over observation and comparison review. Record visible downstream conflicts as secondary blockers without another status label.

Complete this step when another person can identify the declared batch without choosing an unstated quantity, checkpoint, or handling rule.

3. Reconcile declared input

Calculate on a mass basis.

declared input mass = peel mass + sugar mass + declared added-liquid mass
declared peel-to-sugar record = peel mass to sugar mass
scale reporting tolerance = user-supplied tolerance or one scale increment

The peel-to-sugar record describes this batch. It is not a recommended ratio. Do not convert the masses into finished sugar concentration, Brix, dissolved sugar, extraction efficiency, or expected filtered yield.

Label masses USER-SUPPLIED and arithmetic CALCULATED.

Complete this step when the input total closes from declared components and the batch-specific ratio is reported only as a record.

4. Record performed checkpoints

For every supplied checkpoint, preserve the user's evidence labels.

Observation	Allowed record
Elapsed contact	User-supplied time
Extraction state	DRY, DAMP, VISIBLE LIQUID, or the user's exact description
Sugar state	User-observed dry, clumped, partly dissolved, or another exact description
Peel state	User-observed condition
Aroma	User-observed description or NOT OBSERVED
Bitterness	User-observed description or NOT OBSERVED
Visible condition	User-observed mold, gas, unexpected material, damage, or NONE REPORTED
Off odor	User-observed description or NONE REPORTED
Agitation performed	Exact user-reported action

The host cannot see, smell, taste, or inspect the batch. A pleasant aroma and clean appearance do not establish safety.

Emit STOPPED: REQUIRED BATCH OBSERVATIONS MISSING when the user asks for a performed-batch verdict but omits extraction state, aroma, bitterness, visible condition, off odor, or the actual checkpoint actions.

Read the handling and storage boundaries completely when the user reports mold, unexpected gas, unexpected material, container damage, off odor, a handling concern, or any storage request.

Complete this step when every claimed checkpoint rests on a user-supplied observation and each absent field is explicit.

5. Reconcile filtered recovery

After the user performs their selected filtering method, require every recoverable mass category.

accounted output mass =
  filtered oleo mass
  + retained peel and sugar mass
  + vessel and filter residue mass
  + spill or separately discarded mass

recovery variance = declared input mass - accounted output mass
filtered recovery fraction = filtered oleo mass / declared input mass

Compare the absolute recovery variance with the scale reporting tolerance. Label the filtered recovery fraction as a batch recovery record, not extraction efficiency, sugar concentration, or a predicted yield for another batch.

If one category was not measured, mark recovery UNRECONCILED. Do not set an unmeasured category to zero.

Complete this step when every mass category is measured, or the review clearly states why recovery remains unreconciled.

6. Review a controlled comparison

When the user supplies two performed trials or asks for troubleshooting, read the comparison review completely.

A comparable exploration changes one declared variable. An unchanged repeat confirms a candidate. Equipment, masses, handling basis, contact conditions, checkpoint actions, and observation fields remain fixed unless one of them is the declared variable.

Emit STOPPED: TRIAL INCOMPARABLE when two or more variables changed, a control is unknown, or the records cannot identify the changed factor. Issue no corrective quantity. If an earlier stop already applies, describe the comparison conflict as a secondary blocker without printing this status label.

All next-trial values come from the user. Write NEXT VALUE REQUIRED when the user approves a variable but supplies no exact value.

Complete this step when the comparison is classified as baseline, one-variable exploration, unchanged confirmation, or incomparable.

7. Set the evidence state

Use one non-stop state when no stop applies.

State	Gate
BATCH RECORD READY: USER EXTRACTION REQUIRED	Input and checkpoint plans close, but no performed observations exist
BASELINE RECONCILED: ONE-VARIABLE TRIAL REQUIRED	A performed baseline misses a user target
TRIAL RECONCILED: CONFIRMATION REQUIRED	One comparable candidate meets every supplied target
BATCH METHOD LOCKED: USER-OBSERVED EXTRACTION	An unchanged confirmation repeats the candidate and meets every target

An unreconciled recovery or NOT OBSERVED target prevents confirmation and method lock. A visible-condition or off-odor concern routes to the boundary reference rather than a salvage plan.

Complete this step when the state follows from supplied masses, observations, comparability, recovery, and targets.

8. Emit the review

Return the sections below in order.

1. Status
2. Batch contract
3. Declared input reconciliation
4. Checkpoint observation register
5. Filtered recovery reconciliation
6. Comparison controls
7. Next controlled trial
8. Handling, storage, and human review

A stopped result keeps this order. Write NOT ISSUED under Next controlled trial, add no ratio or process value, and list missing evidence in the final review.

Complete the skill when the batch is reconciled or stopped, every physical result remains user-observed, any next trial changes one user-approved value, and storage or safety is not certified.
