Food temperature needs monitoring from the beginning to end of the production process, whether you are in charge of that entire process or just act as a link in the chain. Food temperature is the single most important factor in keeping bacteria under control, and thus preventing a food safety breach.
Where should food temperature be monitored?
Food delivery – Uncooked, unprocessed or raw food must always be carefully monitored, whilst refrigerated food must not rise above 5°C in the transportation process. Frozen food must still be frozen hard.
Food storage – All frozen food should be kept constantly below -15°C. Foods being kept for shorter periods must be refrigerated at below 5°C. These temperatures need monitoring constantly to ensure no sudden peaks or drops in temperature leading to a loss of stock.
Display of cold and frozen stock – All high risk foods or prepared dishes that contain these foods should be kept at a temperature below 5°C.
The Abacus Guardian temperature monitoring system ensures that your product’s temperature never drops below or above the parameters you set without you knowing.
