criticalCode K07Food temperature

Official wording

Proper hot and cold holding temperatures

Inspector’s notes

PHFs measured at improper holding temperatures: Held in display refrigerator for more than 4h: cut melons and orange juice measured between 46F-49F. Ambient temperature in the same unit measured above 50F. [CA] PHFs shall be held at 41°F or below or at 135°F or above. [COS] PIC discarded PHFs.

In plain English

Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.

Inspector’s notes

Refuse containers left uncovered. [CA] Refuse containers shall be covered at all times when not in use.
