Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): High temperature dish machine fails to reach 71.0C at the plate level after three attempts (highest temperature attained was 67.5C).
Dishmachine temperature gauge is not reflective of actual temperature as final rinse temperature showed that it reached 190F during the rinse cycle despite the temperature at plate level failed to reach the minimum required temperature of 71.0C.
Corrective Action(s): Fix the dish machine so that it must reach the required sanitizing temperature of 71.0C at the plate level and fix the temperature gague so it reflects the true temperature readings of the dishmachine.
Reviewed how to test the dish machine temperature with Hot Food Department Manager during the inspection.
