A.
Suggested Cleaning Supplies
1.
A high quality detergent and sanitizer, or a combination cleaning-
sanitizing agent.
2.
Kettle brushes in good condition.
3.
Spray Degreaser.
4.
De-limer/De-scaler.
5.
A high quality stainless steel cleaner.
B.
Precautions
Before any cleaning operation, shut off the kettle by turning the thermostat
dial to "OFF", and shut off all electric power to the unit at a remote switch,
such as the circuit breaker.
C.
Procedure
1.
Clean food contact surfaces as soon as possible after use, preferably
while the kettle is still warm. If the unit is in continuous use, clean
and sanitize inside and outside at least once every 12 hours.
2.
Scrape and flush out large amounts of food residues. Be careful not
to scratch the kettle with metal implements. Close the draw-off.
3.
Prepare a solution of the detergent/cleaning compound as instructed
by the supplier. Clean the unit thoroughly. A cloth moistened with
cleaning solution can be used to clean controls, housing, electrical
conduit, etc.
4.
Rinse the kettle thoroughly with hot water. Then drain completely.
5.
Disassemble the tangent draw-off valve. Clean the draw-off port and
each valve part with a brush.
6.
Rinse the kettle and draw-off valve parts thoroughly with hot water,
then drain completely.
7.
When you reassemble the draw-off valve, HAND-TIGHTEN the nut
which holds it in place.
8.
As part of the daily cleaning program, clean soiled external and
internal surfaces. Remember to check the sides of the unit and
control housing.
9.
To remove burned-on foods, use a brush, sponge, cloth, plastic or
rubber scraper, or plastic wool along with the cleaning solution. To
reduce effort required in washing, let the detergent solution sit in the
kettle for a few minutes and soak into the residue. Do NOT use
abrasive materials or metal tools that might scratch the surface.
Scratches make the surface harder to clean and provide places for
bacteria to grow. Do not use steel wool, which will leave particles in
the surface and cause eventual corrosion and pitting.
10.
The outside of the unit may be polished with a recognized stainless
steel cleaner.
