Death's a grind

Once you have cooled down you will be poured into a machine called a cremulator. The cremulator resembles a small spin dryer. A drum slightly larger than a paint can sits inside. The operator closes the lid and hits a switch.



Metal balls grind you into smaller and smaller particles. You are ground down to something with the texture of sand. You then drop through a perforated sieve into a metal pan below. It will take about 20 minutes to complete the processing of your ashes.
