3.8 SANITIZING
Sanitizing must be done after the machine is cleaned and
just before the hopper is filled with mix. Sanitizing the night
before is not effective. However, you should always clean
the machine and parts after each use.
The United States Department of Agriculture and
the Food and Drug Administration require that all
cleaning and sanitizing solutions used with food
processing equipment be certified for this use.
When sanitizing the machine, refer to local sanitary regu-
lations for applicable codes and recommended sanitizing
products and procedures. The frequency of sanitizing
must comply with local health regulations.
Mix sanitizer according to manufacturer’s instructions to
provide a 100 parts per million (ppm) strength solution.
Mix sanitizer in quantities of no less than 2 gallons (7.5
liters) of 90° to 110°F (32° to 43°C) water. Allow sanitizer
to contact the surfaces to be sanitized for 5 minutes.
Any sanitizer must be used only in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
