Dishwashng Facilities

The high temperature dishwasher manufacturer's specs state that the wash should be 150F rinse should be 160F and the final rinse should be 180F (minimums). The machine was turned off after morning service and the final rinse is at 190F but the wash is only reaching 130F and the rinse is reaching 150F. A high temperature thermometer placed in the machine shows that equipment is not reaching 160F at the plate. Verify that the dishwasher is reaching the proper temperatures so equipment is cleaned and sanitized and employees are waiting for the temperatures to be in the correct range before they are running equipment through the machine.

Improper Maintenance of Walls/Ceilings

1) The walls and ceiling in the deli area are dusty. Clean to remove. 2) The cooking equipment is soiled with grease buildup. Clean all cooking equipment to remove grease buildup.

Why This Matters

OVERHEAD CONTAMINATION: Peeling paint and debris fall into food. Condensation on ceilings drips bacteria onto prep surfaces. Studies found ceiling tiles harbor Bacillus cereus spores. Restaurant ceiling collapse contaminated food service for 200 guests.

Code Requirements

Walls/ceilings must be: Smooth and washable in food areas; Light-colored for easy soil detection; Free of holes, cracks, peeling paint; Sealed at all joints and attachments; Clean and free of grease, dust, cobwebs; Non-absorbent in areas subject to moisture.
