HOW TO CLEAN AND SANITIZE IN A 3-COMPARTMENT SINK

Before you clean and sanitize items in a three-compartment sink, make sure that you clean and sanitize each sink and drain board. There are 5 steps for cleaning and sanitizing in a 3-compartment sink.

Use the sink in the following manner:

In the 1st compartment, wash with a clean detergent solution at or above 110˚F or at the temperature specified by the detergent manufacturer.

In the 2nd compartment, rinse with hot clean water.

In the 3rd compartment, sanitize with a sanitizing solution mixed at a concentration specified on the manufacturer’s label or by immersing in hot water at or above 171˚F for 30 seconds. Test the chemical sanitizer concentration by using an appropriate test kit.

Rinse, scrape, or soak all items before washing them.
