203 - Food not cooled in an acceptable manner [s. 12(a)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): Four pails (2 x 16 and 2 x 20L) of beef broth and one pail (1 x 20L) of chicken broth were probed at 9C to 11C. Operator did not know when broth was placed in the cooler unit but was already in the cooler this morning. Operator states cooling wands are used to cool broth almost immediately after cooking.
Corrective Action(s): Hot potentially hazardous foods must be cooled from 60C to 20C in 2 hours or less and from 20C to 4C in 4 hours or less to prevent the growth of pathogens and or the formation of toxins. Do not use the cooling wand until the broth has cooled to approximately 60C, otherwise the cooling wand will not effective cool the broth. In order to allow for rapid cooling of broth, operator may wish to cool in smaller containers. Soup broth was discarded at the time of inspection.
Violation Score: 15
302 - Equipment/utensils/food contact surfaces not properly washed and sanitized [s. 17(2)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): 1) Chemical dishwasher had no detectable chlorine concentration on the dish surface. Sanitizer pail was beginning to lose yellow chlorine colour and feed line had air bubbles. Dishwasher chlorine concentration has not been tested today.
2) Deli slicer was found to have meat on the slicer arm - slicer was last used two days ago
3) Quats sanitizer spray bottle was greater than 10,000ppm - using Extra High QAC Test Strips.
Corrective Action(s): 1) Chemical dishwasher must have at least 50ppm chlorine on the dish surface to allow for proper sanitizing of equipment, dishware, and utensils. Sanitizer pail was switched for Clorox pails and was tested at 50ppm (2 consecutive cycles). All dishes, utensils, and equipment must be properly cleaned and sanitized before using. Operator began to wash and sanitize equipment, utensils, and dishware at the time of inspection.
2) Deli slicer must be properly cleaned and sanitized after each use to prevent potential contamination of foods. Slicer was disassembled for cleaning and sanitizing at the time of inspection.
3) Quats sanitizer must be maintained between 200 to 400ppm. Concentrations in excess of 400ppm may be toxic for humans. Sanitizer spray bottle was diluted to 200 to 400ppm at the time of inspection.
