Quaternary Ammonium (Quats) is used in the sanitizing step during manual dishwashing and for food contact surfaces (including counters). Iodine is used for the F'Real milkshake machine. 2. Thermometer was missing at the display sandwich cooler. Thermometer was replaced at the time of inspection. CDI - Corrected During Inspection. Please ensure all cold-holding units have accurate in-unit portable thermometer. NSF-certified thermometers are recommended.

It is important that the sanitized items are properly air dried. Sanitizing solution concentration must be verified using Quats test strip to ensure adequate amount is available to sanitize. This is a repeated infraction. Please ensure all staff is familiar with the proper manual dishwashing procedure. 2. Spray bottle of sanitizer is not available for sanitizing clean-in-place food contact surfaces (including cold-holding units, equipment and counters). Please ensure a spray bottle of sanitizing solution (i.e. Quats) at appropriate concentration is available. This is a repeated infraction. Note: - No sanitizing solution was made up at the time of inspection, therefore concentration of sanitizer was not verified at the time. - Reminded that prior to sanitizing, area must be properly cleaned to remove any organic matter or debris. - Please ensure the spray bottle is properly labelled and concentration must be verified with test strips.

- Observation(s): 1. Temperature of walk-in beverage cooler on the side storing dairy and dairy products was measured at between 5C and 7C. Temperature of the pop and juice side was measured at ~4C. 2. Thermometer in walk-in beverage cooler appears to be broken. Suggested placing two in-unit portable thermometers in the cooler (one on each end). NSF-certified thermometers are recommended. Note: - Discussed that temperature of cream and milk in self-serve dairy dispenser and self-serve coffee machine should be monitored and recorded. - No temperature logs were available for review at the time of inspection. Discussed with operator that temperatures of all cold-holding units should be monitored and recorded. Temperature logs should be kept on-site.
- F1.4A - Potentially hazardous food must be maintained at 4°C or colder.

- F2.3 - Are equipment, food contact surfaces and utensils washed, sanitized and stored in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?
- Observation(s): Sanitizer solution for food contact surfaces was not available at the time of inspection. Quaternary Ammonium (Quats) dispenser was not providing adequate amount of Quats. None was detected with test strip. Please ensure that 200ppm of Quats is available for sanitizing food contact surfaces or for manual warewashing. Requested operator to use bleach solution for sanitizing food contact surfaces until adequate amount of Quats can be provided. For a spray bottle, 200ppm of chlorine is required to properly sanitize. 200ppm of chlorine can be made by adding 1tsp of unscented household bleach to 1L of water. For manual dishwashing, 100ppm of chlorine is sufficient for sanitizing. 3 compartment sink manual dishwashing method includes 1) wash with warm soapy water 2) rinse with warm water 3) sanitize with bleach solution by submerging the item in the solution for at least 2 minutes then 4) air dry.
