Have you ever wondered why we need to use a calibrated thermometer to monitor food temperatures regularly or at a set time?
I have the privilege to attend training about food safety management and I am excited to share with you here what I have learned and experienced.
I will share with you the following:
1. What is food safety?
a. Food safety temperature danger zone/food safety danger zone
2. The Food Thermometers for Food Safety Monitoring
a. Analog Food thermometer
b. Digital Food Thermometers
c. Non-Contact food thermometer is also known as Infrared Thermometer or IR thermometer
d. How to use food thermometers
3. Why do we need calibration in the food Industry?
4. Calibration and Verification of Food Thermometers for Food Safety
a. What does ‘calibrated’ mean
b. Three ways to perform food thermometer calibration
1. calibration using Ice Bath
2. calibration using a calibrated thermometer
3. calibration using metrology well
c. How to perform verification of food thermometer
I also answered the following questions:
What is the most accurate method for calibrating thermometers?
What temperature should a bimetallic stemmed or digital thermometer be set during calibration?
