- Warewash Machines, Temperature Measuring Devices
Observation: The temperature measuring device for the wash tank of the warewashing machine is not operating.
Correction: Provide a functioning temperature measuring device at the (wash/rinse/sanitizing) compartment so employees can routinely monitor the water temperature.
- Equipment - Good Repair and Proper Adjustment
Observation: The door gasket of the True reach in unit is broken.
Correction: Repair or replace the door gasket in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications.

Observed proper thawing of turkey and good food safety practices during this inspection. Discussed the following with the CFM: The monitoring of the mechanical dish machine's temperatures.
- Equipment - Good Repair and Proper Adjustment
Observation: The top left oven unit was observed in a state of disrepair and/or damaged. The unit was not working.
Correction: Repair the above mentioned equipment to restore a state of condition that allows for proper operation, accuracy, functioning, maintenance, and cleanability per Part IV, Article 1 and 2 of this chapter. If unable to repair the above mentioned equipment, replace it with one that meets the specifications of Part IV, Article 1 and 2 of this chapter.
- Premises - Maintaining Premises; Unnecessary Items and Litter
