Coffee Maker Cleaning Guide
Introduction
Cleaning coffee makers is a crucial task in restaurants. At the end of each shift, staff members spend a significant amount of time ensuring coffee pitchers, both regular and decaffeinated, are properly rinsed. Although they are cleaned at the end of each shift, some workers may feel it’s unnecessary to clean them again.
Importance of Cleaning
It's easy to distinguish between restaurants that prioritize cleaning their coffee makers and those that don't. The taste of the coffee often reveals whether the equipment is maintained regularly. Typically, one person is in charge of ensuring that coffee makers are cleaned on schedule.
Identifying Cleanliness
Clean coffee pitchers should have no residue inside the glass. Coffee contains oils that rise to the surface, leaving a residue that forms rings inside the pitcher. A well-cleaned pitcher will have no such build-up.
Cleaning Methods
Sanitizing Agents
Restaurants often use specific sanitizing agents for cleaning coffee makers, as some parts cannot withstand the high heat of a dishwashing machine. The heat can melt the plastic components of the coffee server system.
Degaussing Wands and Bleach
Degaussing wands, used for cleaning internal tubing, require careful handling. They help maintain clean water lines in commercial coffee makers, preventing lime and other deposits.
Bleach is a simple solution for cleaning. Immerse removable parts in a mixture of three parts water to one part bleach for at least 15 to 30 minutes. This ensures thorough sanitation.
Granulated Crystals
Granulated crystals, available at stores like Walmart, are effective for cleaning. However, overuse can damage the gaskets in the machine. It’s advisable to use these sparingly.
Avoiding Improper Cleansers
Using dishwasher granules is not recommended, as they're not designed for coffee makers and can lead to damage, necessitating a trip to the store for replacements.
Conclusion
Regularly cleaning coffee makers is essential in maintaining the quality of coffee and the longevity of the equipment. By following these cleaning methods, restaurants can ensure their coffee makers are in top condition and provide the best coffee experience to their customers.
