Inspector’s notes
Quat sanitizer bucket was measured at 500PPM at the time of inspection. The sanitizer is a manual mix that requires a range of 200-400PPM. Discussed with Manager that sanitizer bucket was being mixed to a level that is too strong. If sanitizer is too strong, it can leave a chemical residue on food contact surfaces. Manager diluted sanitizer bucket to 400PPM. Retrain staff to mix sanitizer buckets to safe and effective range of 200-400PPM to be within safe and effective level.
