I JUST SPOKE TO THE MAGROVER ROV SHLIT"A AND HE TOLD ME THAT YESTERDAY HE VISITED THE PLANT THAT PRODUCES AND PACKS THE 64 OZ. RICE MILK FOR THE "RICE DREAM" BRAND. 

THE FOLLOWING WERE HIS FINDINGS:

1) THE 64 OZ. RICE DREAM IS PRODUCED AND PACKED ON THE SAME LINE THAT NON KOSHER CHICKEN BROTH IS MADE. 

2) BOTH PRODUCTS (RICE DREAM & CHICKEN BROTH) GO THROUGH PASTEURIZATION & HOMOGENIZATION AT HIGH TEMPERATURES.

3) THE HAGOLOH (KASHERING) IS DONE "BEN YOMO" (NO 24 HOUR DOWN TIME).

4) THE RAV MENTIONED THAT THERE WERE OTHER ISSUES REGARDING THE TEMPERATURE OF THE HAGOLOH WHICH HE DID NOT ELABORATE.

5) ALL THE HOLDING TANKS (TOTAL OF 8) CAN HOLD ANY OF THEIR PRODUCTS INTERCHANGEABLY (NO DEDICATED TANKS). PRODUCTS CAN BE HELD FOR SEVERAL DAYS (REFRIGERATED) BEFORE PACKING, THEREBY CAUSING "KOVUSH".

6) THE KASHERING OF THE HOLDING TANKS IS ALSO DONE "BEN YOMO" AS ABOVE. 

7) THE KASHERING OF THESE TANKS ARE DONE WITH A "SPRAY-BALL" (IRUY) AND NOT HAGOLOH KLI RISHON.

8) THE SAME TEMPERATURE ISSUES APPLY TO THESE TANKS AS WELL.

THE RAV CLEARLY STATED THAT THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO THE 32OZ. RICE DREAM AS THAT IS PRODUCED AT A DIFFERENT PLANT. 

THE 32 OZ. RICE DREAM HAS THE HECHSHER OF RAV B. GRUBER SHLIT"A OF MONSEY.
