notedCode 4.1(Z)Food temperature
Official wording
4.1(Z) - Temperature Measuring Device - Functionality
Inspector’s notes
Temperature measuring devices are missing, not correctly placed, not readable, or of improper design. Observed that the ambient air temperature measuring device was missing from the refrigeration unit in the front. Person in charge (PIC) placed a ambient air temp device in the unit.
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.
