minorCode K14Cleaning and sanitizing

Official Wording

Food contact surfaces clean, sanitized

Inspector’s Notes

At the 3-compartment sink, observed employee dipping dishes into sanitizer solution and not making adequate contact time before drying. [CA] Manual sanitization shall be accomplished in the final sanitizing rinse by contacting a chlorine solution of 100 PPM concentration for at least 30 seconds or by contacting a quaternary ammonium solution of 200 PPM concentration for at least 60 seconds.

In Plain English

Dishes, equipment, or surfaces that touch food were not properly washed, rinsed, and sanitized, or sanitizer was not at the right strength. Clean surfaces help stop germs from spreading to food.

criticalCode K07Food temperature

Official Wording

Proper hot and cold holding temperatures

Inspector’s Notes

In the steam table, measured cream cheese rangoons from 118-135F. Per employee, food was cooked and placed into the steam table 20 minutes prior to temperature measurement. [CA] Potentially Hazardous Foods shall be kept at 41F or below or 135F or above. [COS] PIC elected to voluntarily discard the rangoons at the time of inspection.

In Plain English

Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.
