4.3.2 Sanitizing the machine
Prior to filling the machine with fresh liquid mix, the assembled machine must be sanitized. The
frequency of cleaning and sanitizing must comply with your local and/or state health regulations.
If uncertain of these regulations, contact your local Health Departments or Department of Agriculture.
Sanitizing your machine is very important. This procedure will retard the growth of bacteria and
insure excellent product bacteria test results performed by your local inspectors.
To begin, you will need the sanitizer, spatula, large cleaning brush, (all
included in the start up kit), and clean pail.
Mix the sanitizer into a clean pail with at least two gallons of warm water.
Mix the sanitizer and water to make a 200-PPM. concentration of sanitizer
solution. Using the spatula, stir the solution until the sanitizer is completely
dissolved.
IMPORTANT
Do not exceed the formula recommended by the sanitizer manufacturer as it will not add to the
sanitizing effectiveness. DO NOT use straight chlorine bleach since it does not clean properly
and will damage plastic components. Do not leave the sanitizing solution in the machine longer
than one hour as it can corrode some parts.
With machine off (not working), fill both cylinders with water and ad a NON CORROSIVE
sanitizing solution.
After that, press the button for heating side and the button for the production side.
CAUTION
Too a long operation of the machine set at "CLEANOUT" and "BEATING" positions with
empty cylinders, or with only water and sanitizer causes a quick wear of beaters and cylinders.
Wait for a time necessary to the action of the sanitizing solution (about 10-15 minutes, depending
on sanitizer used).
Fully drain the sanitizing solution using levers 5 and 502.
IMPORTANT
The machine is now sanitized and ready to be filled with fresh liquid mix. Do not wipe out any
residual sanitizing solution from the cylinders as this will contaminate the machine with bacteria.
Using your three-tank sink, wash, rinse and sanitize all of the disassembled machine parts. Mix
the sanitizing solution to a 200ppm concentration with warm water. Allow the parts to soak in
the sanitizing solution for 3-5 minutes before removing. Allow the parts to air-dry on the clean,
sanitized counter at the end of the sink. DO NOT towel or sponge dry these part
