This website describes the casting process:

6) Break-Out and Clean-Up:
After the metal has solidified and the plaster has cooled, the plaster is carefully broken away to reveal the metal casting. Remaining plaster is removed via pressure washing and the part is then hand cleaned and detailed. During this process gates and risers are removed and the part is prepped for machining.

Hope this helps!
