Galley-Potwash Operations
|
Violation:
Potwash operations were chaotic, disorganized, and not in compliance with the VSP operations manual. Crew stated they used the three-compartment sink process for cleaning and sanitizing followed by the front-loading warewash machine. However, wash/rinse/sanitize process was not appropriately followed. Specifically:
-Crew stored soiled items in the pre-wash sink and the wash sink. When crew sprayed soiled items in the wash sink the spray deflected off the soiled items onto surrounding surfaces.
-There was very little water in the wash sink, the water level was lower than the items stacked in the sink, and the water was soiled. The wash compartment did not contain a solution of soap/detergent. Food debris accumulated in the rinse and sanitizing sinks.
-The same crew member who sprayed the soiled items proceeded to (without washing hand or changing gloves) rinse items in the rinse basin, and then dipped the item for only a few seconds in the sanitizing sink.
-The water temperature in the sanitizing compartment of the three-compartment sink measured 76°C (169°F) and the analog gauge measured 72°C (161°F).
-Most items then were washed in the front loading warewash machine; however, at least one item went directly from the sink to the clean rack without being properly sanitized.
-When first used, the front-loading machine was overloaded, which compromised the effectiveness of the spray.
-During the first cycle of the front-loading warewash machine, the utensil surface did not reach 71°C (160°F) during the sanitizing rinse cycle and the final rinse gauge did not reach 82°C (180°F). However, the proper temperatures were achieved during the second cycle.
|
Recommendation:
Ensure warewashing machines, drainboards, and the compartments of sinks, basins, or other receptacles used for washing and rinsing equipment, utensils, or raw foods, or laundering wiping cloths are cleaned: (1) before use; (2) throughout the day at a frequency necessary to prevent recontamination and accumulation of excessive debris, and to ensure that the equipment performs its intended function; (3) at least every 24 hours (if used). When used for warewashing, ensure the wash compartment of a sink, mechanical warewasher, or wash receptacle of alternative manual warewashing equipment contains a wash solution of soap, detergent, acid cleaner, alkaline cleaner, degreaser, abrasive cleaner, or other cleaning agent according to the cleaning agent manufacturer?s label instructions. Ensure the wash, rinse, and sanitize solutions are maintained clean. Ensure soiled items to be cleaned in a warewashing machine are loaded into racks, trays, or baskets or onto conveyors in a position that (1) exposes the items to the unobstructed spray from all cycles; (2) allows the items to drain.

Violation:
There was very little water in the wash compartment of the three-compartment sink, the water level was lower than the items stacked in the sink, and the water was soiled. Crew sprayed soiled items in the wash sink and the spray deflected off the soiled items into the surrounding area. Several pans, utensils, strainers, and more stored on the clean racks were soiled on the food-contact and nonfood-contact sides.
|
Recommendation:
Ensure food debris on equipment and utensils is scrapped over a waste disposal unit, pulper, or garbage receptacle or removed in a warewashing machine with a prewash cycle. If necessary for effective cleaning, ensure utensils and equipment are preflushed, presoaked, or scrubbed with abrasives. Ensure food-contact surfaces of equipment and utensils are effectively washed to remove or completely loosen soils by using whatever manual or mechanical means is necessary. If washing in sink compartments or a warewashing machine is impractical, ensure washing is done by using alternative manual warewashing equipment in accordance with the following procedures: (1) equipment is disassembled as necessary to allow access of the detergent solution to all parts; (2) equipment components and utensils are scrapped or rough-cleaned to remove food particle accumulation; (3) equipment and utensils are washed.
