12/09/2014Routine
QUATS sanitizer checked at 400 ppm - this is at the high end of recommended level of manufacturer (200 - 400 ppm). Suggest lower and keep 200-300 ppm), so not get to toxic level.

Suggest use ice water vs just ice for keep cut tomatoes cold, at heated sandwich prep. area.
QUATS sanitizer at 3-compartment sink = 200 ppm - ok
Strongly suggest use metal pans for foods that are potentially hazardous - metal transfers cold much more efficiently than plastic.
  • Temperature Measuring Devices

    Correction: Provide a temperature measuring device in all hot or cold holding equipment used to store potentially hazardous foods so that employees can routinely monitor the ambient air temperature.
