Who this food temperature log is for
This log is for restaurants, cafes, caterers, food trucks and home food businesses that must keep food safety records. It suits head chefs, kitchen managers and cooks who want clear daily records for health inspections and their own peace of mind. Temperature control is one of the most important parts of food safety, and written checks show inspectors that your kitchen takes it seriously. Simple logs also help new staff learn safe habits from day one.
How to use your food temperature log
Record fridge and freezer temperatures, cooking, hot holding and cooling, check deliveries and probes, and note corrective actions. Check and record fridge and freezer temperatures at least twice a day. Probe cooked foods and record core temperatures before serving, and check hot holding every couple of hours. Record cooling times for large batches. Check temperatures of chilled and frozen deliveries before signing. Test your probe thermometer regularly, and whenever a reading is out of range, write what you did on the corrective action page. Keep completed sheets for the period your local rules require.
