Person in charge added more sanitizer to the compartment until it had a measured concentration of 200 ppm. Person in charge informed they must measure the concentration of the solution every time it is made to make sure it is the correct concentration and also ensure it is changed often enough so it has adequate strength. Quaternary ammonium sanitizer must have a concentration of 150 - 400 ppm; anything lower than 150 ppm may not be effective for cleaning and anything above 400 ppm may leave toxic residuals on food contact surfaces and equipment. Establishment must always verify the concentration with test strips and read the concentrate label to ensure they are using the correct concentration.

Proper reheating procedures for hot holding
PRIORITY VIOLATION-3-403.11, P: Reheating for Hot Holding. For a permanent fix to this violation, check out these simple tools in our Active Managerial Control Toolbox, made especially for you. https://www.maricopa.gov/4618/AMC-Toolbox---Reheating.>>>Observed garlic butter (made with dairy butter and real garlic) with an internal temperature of 105*F. An employee indicated they started reheating it ~4 hours before inspection. Person in charge was informed that all garlic in oil mixtures must be held at 41*F and below or 135*F and above; all time/temperature controlled for safety foods that have been cooled and warmed back up for hot holding must be reheated to 165*F from 41*F within 2 hours and held at 135*F and above. Person in charge willingly discarded of the garlic butter. When food is held, cooled, and reheated in a food establishment, there is an increased risk from contamination caused by personnel, equipment, procedures, or other factors. Proper reheating provides a major degree of assurance that pathogens will be eliminated
