Violations Cited

⚠ MAJOR 590.004/4-501.114-PF

Manual and Mechanical Warewashing Equipment Chemical Sanitization-Temperature pH Concentration and Hardness (Pf)

There is no sanitizer reading at the glass washer behind the bar. Provide proper sanitizer levels to be sure equipment is cleaned and sanitized (they'll wash the glasses in the kitchen dishwasher until the machine is working properly)

Why This Matters

INEFFECTIVE SANITIZATION: Below 50ppm chlorine or 200ppm quat, bacteria survive on 'clean' dishes. Above 200ppm chlorine leaves toxic residue causing chemical burns, nausea. 70% of restaurant outbreaks linked to improper sanitization.

Code Requirements

Maintain sanitizer at: Chlorine 50-100ppm, Quaternary Ammonium 200-400ppm, Iodine 12.5-25ppm. Test every 2 hours with test strips. Change solution when cloudy/dirty. Train all staff on mixing procedures.
