criticalCode K07Food temperature

Official wording

Proper hot and cold holding temperatures

Inspector’s notes

In the 2-door upright cooler, measured cheese at 58F. Per employee, cheese was moved into the upright cooler less than 20 minutes prior to temperature measurement. [CA] Potentially Hazardous Foods shall be kept at 41F or below or 135F or above. [SA] Cheese was relocated to the walk-in cooler to facilitate rapid cooling.

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.
