Question 4

What does Florida violation V21 (Time as control) mean?

Accepted Answer

TIME ABUSE: When time is used as a public health control (instead of temperature), food is allowed to remain in the temperature danger zone for a limited period. Without proper written procedures, documentation, and disposal protocols, food may be served after unsafe time periods. Bacteria reach dangerous levels after 4 hours at room temperature — causing Staphylococcal intoxication, Salmonellosis, and C. perfringens illness. If using time as a control: develop written procedures, mark food with discard time (4 hours from removal, or 6 hours if starting at 41°F and not exceeding 70°F), monitor and document. Food must be discarded at marked time — no exceptions. Staff must be trained on procedures. Time as control is NOT appropriate for all foods.

Question 5

What does Florida violation V33 (Proper cooling equipment) mean?

Accepted Answer

TEMPERATURE FAILURE: Inadequate cooling equipment cannot maintain required temperatures, allowing food to enter the danger zone (41-135°F). Overloaded or malfunctioning refrigeration allows slow temperature rise that promotes bacterial growth. Clostridium botulinum grows in improperly refrigerated vacuum-packed foods. Equipment failure during busy periods creates mass food safety risk. Provide sufficient refrigeration and cooling capacity for the volume of food prepared. Monitor equipment temperatures at least daily. Maintain and repair equipment promptly. Do not overload refrigeration units (maintain air circulation). Use ambient temperature thermometers in all cooling equipment. Have backup plans for equipment failure.
