   • Not serious Priority 2

     Use effective cooling methods to cool TCS foods.

     Facility is using both an active method (ice) and a passive method (shallow pans) but is doing each of them ineffectively. Shallow pan cooling is being done at depths that range from 1.5-3 inches without an air gap around each pan. Ensure that the food fill depth doesn't exceed 2.5 inches and a 2 inch air gap is present around the foods to ensure air circulation. Active cooling is being done with both ice bath ice wand but they are not being replaced after the first hour and the method is not being done longer enough to effectively cool the middle of the food. Replace both the ice wand and ice bath after the first hour of cooling and stick with this method until the middle of the food is verified to be 41 degrees F or less. Job aids for both of these methods are being provided with the report.
