A device for producing fibrinogen includes a platen having a surface configured for heat exchange with a container, which is adhered to the platen by device of a vacuum and heat exchange allowing both cooling and heating to occur along the boundary between the container and the platen. The platen is operatively coupled to a device of rocking the platen about a horizontal axis and the container allows scavenging of a cryoprecipitate fibrinogen from the blood product for subsequent utilization. A method for fabricating fibrinogen is also disclosed, including the steps of receiving blood product in a container having a heat transfer surface thereon, adhering a container to a heat transfer platen, rocking the container and coating the interior of the container with blood product, transferring heat and thereby altering the temperature of the platen, sensing the temperature of the platen and monitoring the platen temperature, and coupling the heat transfer to the temperature sensor and cycling the blood product through a phase change.
