The invention provides a process for the preparation of a starch based glue for making corrugated board. The process is carried out in a system which includes a first and relatively large mixing vessel containing a stirrer. A second and smaller mixing vessel is connected to the first vessel via a recirculation path. The second and smaller mixing vessel contains means for exerting a shearing force which is greater than the shearing force exerted in the first and larger mixing vessel. The process is carried out in two steps. A first step is to make a carrier by combining water, starch and a limited amount of lye in the large vessel. A second step adds further amounts of starch, water, borax, and a second shot of lye to the carrier while in the small vessel. Adding lye in two steps is a principal aspect of the invention. If all lye is added in one step, it must be limited to an amount which does not prematurely gelatinize the starch to a level which defeats the glue making.
