  • [4] Facilities to maintain product temperature
    40) Cold holding unit not maintaining proper temperature - walk-in at 50F; products inside walk-in (cooked and cooled beans and rice; cheese; raw beef) all 45F-55F. Per operator; walk-in was erroneously on defrost cycle. Operator stated that defrost cycle is normally set for after hours. Instructed operator to ensure that defrost cycle occurs after facility is closed to minimize temperature increases when the door is opened and closed during operation. Monitor unit and ensure internal food temperatures are maintained at 40F or less. If unit temperature does not return to 40F or less; within the next hour; all potentially hazardous foods must be moved to the reach-in refrigerators.Observed improper cooling practices. Observed full hotel pan of beans covered at room temperature in the cooling process checked at 100F-110F. Per operator; beans were cooked approximately 2 hours early – operator instructed to add beans to smaller pans; put in ice baths and store in reach-in to ensure beans are cooled to 40F within an additional 2 hours. Discussed proper cooling procedures. Ensure potentially hazardous foods are cooled from 140F to 70F within 2 hours (use small metal pans; ice baths and frequent stirring of product to facilitate cooling) and from 70F to 40F within an additional 4 hours. If potentially hazardous foods are not cooled from 140F to 70F within the first 2 hours; the product must be cooled to 40F in a total of only 4 hours. Ensure foods remain uncovered during the cooing process and only covered once internal temperatures reach 40F or less.

  • [1] Installed; maintained
    When hanging freely; the spray arm above the 3-compartment sink hangs just below the flood level rim of the sink. This may present a backflow situation if the sink were to be completely full.
