3. Let’s Look at Cleaning and Sanitation Cleaning removes the visible soil and food particles from a surface. What is the difference between cleaning and sanitizing? Sanitizing reduces the number of microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, etc.) 20140630

4. Something that looks clean does not mean it is sanitary. Billions of microorganisms may be present even though they are not visible to the naked eye. Both cleaning and sanitizing are essential in preventing foodborne illness. 20140630 Just because…

5. When should I clean and sanitize materials? 20140630  Each time there is a change from working with raw foods to working with ready-to-eat foods.  Between uses with raw fruits and vegetables and with potentially hazardous foods.  Before using or storing food thermometers (after each use).  Any time contamination may have occurred.  Before each use with different types of raw animal food, except in contact with a succession of different raw animal foods, in which the second food requires a higher cooking temperature than the first food.

6. When should I clean and sanitize surfaces and equipment that contacts potentially hazardous foods? 20140630 At least every 4 hours. Exceptions: - Storage containers of potentially hazardous foods should be cleaned when emptied. -At least every 24 hours for containers in serving situations such as salad bars.

7.  You should clean surfaces and equipment at least every 24 hours or any time contamination may occur.  Also, before restocking consumer self-service equipment and utensils such as condiment dispensers.  Also clean enclosed components of equipment such as ice bins, ice makers, beverage nozzles & syrup dispenser tubes, cooking oil storage tanks & distribution lines, coffee bean grinders, and water vending equipment, as specified by the manufacturer or as necessary to preclude accumulation of soil or mud. 20140630 When should I clean and sanitize surfaces and equipment that contacts non-potentially hazardous foods?

8.  Make sure that you can’t contaminate food during and with the use of cleaners and sanitizers. 20140630 Be careful…

9.  Always store chemicals safely away from all food.  Keep chemicals safely secured at all times.  Keep chemicals in their original container.  Store chemicals according to the directions on the label. 20140630 Proper Chemical/Cleaning Storage

10.  Don’t use chemical if you haven’t properly been trained.  Always put food and packaging away before chemical usage.  Use only approved chemicals for the task you are doing.  Use only according to the manufacturer label.  Always make sure there is a proper label attached to the container.  Know where to locate the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for all chemicals. 20140630 Chemical Usage:

11. Let’s look at: Cleaning and Sanitizing Using a 3 Compartment Sink. 20140630 There are five steps to correctly utilize a 3 compartment sink.

12. Step 1: Pre-scrape 20140630 -Rinse, scrape, or soak all items before washing. -Have a waste receptacle near the 3 compartment sink if necessary. Step 2: Wash - Wash in hot water, at least 110° F, with detergent. 3 Compartment Sink Process

13. Step 3: Rinse 20140630 Rinse off soap residue using clear, warm water. Step 4: Sanitize Sanitize in warm water, at least 75° F*, with: -50 ppm chlorine, immersed for 1 minute; or -12.5 ppm iodine, immersed for 1 minute; or -200 ppm QAC, immersed for 1 minute. *Sanitizing instructions differ per product, be sure to check the manufacturer’s directions. 3 Compartment Sink Process

14. Key Tip to Sanitizing! 20140630 It is important to monitor the sanitizing solution to ensure the correct amount is added to the water: - too much sanitizer is toxic. - too little is unsanitary. Use test strips to monitor the pH of your sanitizer solution.

15. Step 5: Air Dry 20140630 Air dry all equipment and utensils before stacking to eliminate the growth of microbes. 3 Compartment Sink Process

16. Let’s look at: Dish Machine Washing and Sanitizing 20140630 There are two kinds of commercial dish machines: chemical sanitizing machines and hot-water sanitizing machines. Chemical Sanitizing These machines use chlorine-based chemicals dispensed during the final rinse to sanitize equipment. The chemical level should be 50 ppm in the final rinse water. As with manual dish washing, sanitizer strength should be monitored using test-strips. Hot Water Sanitizing These machines use very hot water during the final rinse to sanitize equipment. This water should be 180° F to effectively sanitize. Often times a Booster Heater is used to achieve proper water temperature.

17. Dish machines should be monitored for: 20140630 -food debris and grease residue. -proper soap amount dispensed during wash cycle. -sanitizer strength (chemical, sanitizing only). -wash and final rinse temperatures.

18. Let’s look at: Wiping Cloths 20140630  Cloths used for wiping food spills should be used for no other purposes.  Cloths used for wiping food spills shall be:  Dry and used on tableware and carry-out containers; If using a dry towel sanitize also if necessary, OR  Wet and clean, stored in a chemical sanitizer, and used on food and nonfood contact equipment.  Change sanitizing solution frequently.  Keep dry or wet cloths used with raw animal products separate, including having a separate sanitizing solution.  Dry and wet cloths used with fresh sanitizing solution shall be free of food debris and visible soil.
