A process for manufacturing aloe gel from the leaves of the Aloe vera plant, comprising the following steps: cleaning each leaf; hand filleting each aloe leaf to separate the internal gel and leaving behind leaf residue; collecting the internal gel in a stainless steel container; Milling the gel in a multimill to obtain gel having particle size less than 1.5 mm; adding charcoal in the range of 1% of the mass of the gel in particle size greater than 1.5 mm and mixing it well with the juice and pasteurizing the gel by heating the gel to about 70 to 75 degrees C. for about half an hour and; prefiltering the juice to remove the charcoal; adjusting the pH of the juice to lie on the range of 3.5 to 4 using lemon juice; finally filtering of the pH adjusted juice using a filter bed and nutch filtration to remove even trace fibres from the juice; filling the fibre free filtered juice in sterilized bottles and air tight sealing of the bottles; autoclaving the sealed bottles in an autoclave at about 121° C. for about 30 minutes.
