CLASSIFICATION OF FOOD SOILS
1. Fat based soils – fat is usually present as an
emulsion and can generally be rinsed with hot
water above the melting point. Fat and oil
residues that are more difficult to get rid off can
be removed with alkaline detergents which
have good emulsifying or saponifying
ingredients.
4. Mineral based soils – Calcium and magnesium are some of the most difficult to
remove mineral films. Under conditons involving heat and alkaline pH, calcium
and magnesium can combine with bicarbonates to form highly insoluble

Methods of Cleaning
Foam – foam is produced through the
introduction of air to a detergent solution as it is
sprayed on the surface that needs to be cleaned.
Foam cleaning will increase the contact time of the
chemical solutions, allowing for improved cleaning
with less mechanical force.
Clean in Place (CIP) – is utilized to clean the interior surfaces of tanks and
pipelines of liquid process equipment. A chemical solution is circulated through
a circuit of tanks and or lines then return to a central reservoir allowing the
chemical solution to be reused. Time, temperature and mechanical force are
manipulated to achieve maximum cleaning.
Clean Out of Place (COP) – is utilized to clean the parts of filters and parts of
other equipment. This requires disassembly for proper cleaning. Parts
removed for cleaning are placed in a circulation tank and cleaned using a
heated chemical solution and agitation.

FUNDAMENTAL CLEANING PROCEDURES
1. Scrape and Pre-rinse – soiled equipment surfaces are scraped and rinsed with
warm water to remove loose food soils.
2. Cleaning Cycle – the removal of residual food soils from equipment surfaces is
based on the manipulation of the four basic cleaning factors and the method of
cleaning. Typically, alkaline chemical solutions are used for the cleaning cycle.
3. Rinse – rinse all surfaces with cold to hot water, depending on the temperature
of the cleaning cycle,to thoroughly remove all remaining chemical solution and
food soil residues.
4. Acid Rinse – a mild acid rinse of the equipment neutralizes any alkaline
residues left and removes any mineral soil present.
5. Sanitize – all equipment surfaces are rinsed or flooded with a sanitizing agent.
Both time and chemical concentration are critical for optimum results.
Time – the longer a cleaning solution remains in contact with the equipment
surface, the greater the amount of food soil that is removed. More time in
contact with the soil reduces the chemical concentration requirements.
Document No. 01
Surface – different surfaces especially metals, vary in the ease with which they
can be cleaned. Stainless steel is preferred surface for food equipment and is
specified in industry and regulatory design and construction standards.

The kitchen and equipment quickly get dirty through normal use. Germs in a dirty
kitchen will spread and the food won’t be safe
to eat.
Also, first impressions are very important in the
hospitality industry. If things are not clean,
guests will see this straight away and not want
to stay or recommend the business to other
people.
The government has laws that businesses and
people handling food must follow. One law is
called the Food Act. It sets minimum (lowest level) standards for cleanliness of food
storage, preparation and service areas, and for hygienic (clean) food handling

Cleanliness in the kitchen environment is imperative.
When the public enter restaurants it is the cleanliness
that is first noted. Places the public cannot see are just
as important as the places that can be seen.
Modern practice is all based around the Food Safety
Plan (FSP). No food premises can operate in Australia
since 2001 without have a FSP.

Document No. 01
There are many different types of cleaning equipment used to clean a kitchen and
each piece of equipment has a special purpose.
Smaller businesses may only have domestic cleaning equipment (what you use at
home) kept in a cupboard. Bigger businesses have commercial or industrial
equipment because it is more powerful and is built for constant use. They may also
have a purpose-built cleaning storeroom where equipment, cleaning products and
protective clothing is kept.
Here is a list of cleaning equipment commonly used to clean kitchens.
Manual cleaning equipment Purpose
The cleaning equipment you use depends on what parts of the kitchen you are
cleaning and what they are made of. For example:

equipment properly.
1. Report electrical equipment that is not working properly as it could use
more electricity.
2. Clean equipment after you have used it e.g. empty the vacuum cleaner
and clean the brushes. This means the equipment will work more
efficiently and use less energy next time.
3. Turn off equipment when it is not being used so it does not use
electricity.
4. Use microfiber cleaning, dry mopping and sweeping rather than wet
cleaning to save water.

Benches
Benches are where the food is prepared, so they need to be cleaned all through the
day. The chef or someone in the kitchen may tell you when to clean the benches.
At the end of the day or after each shift, the benches should be thoroughly cleaned
and sanitised.
Stainless steel benches can scratch easily. Don’t use scourers on them.
Here are some guidelines for cleaning benches.
1. Pre-clean
Take food off the bench and store it away from the cleaning
area.
Sweep off any crumbs or other food scraps and put them in the
bin.
2. Wash Wipe down with warm water and a detergent, using a cloth or
sponge.

Leave benches, counters and equipment to air dry. The most hygienic way to dry
equipment is in a draining rack.

CLEAN AND SANITIZE PREMISES
OBJECTIVE: At the end of the session, you will learn how to:
1. Identify materials used in cleaning kitchen equipment;
2. Follow the uses of the cleaning materials in the kitchen; and
3. Perform how to clean kitchen items.
MATERIALS USED IN CLEANING KITCHEN EQUIPMENT
The kitchen gets used from morning to night every day. That leads to spills, trails
of crumbs and smudges on everything from big appliances to drawers and
cabinets. Home cooks who spend a lot of time tinkering with recipes and creating
elaborate dishes require a clean kitchen to complete these culinary masterpieces
without fail.
There are many types of chemicals used in cleaning and sanitizing kitchen tools
and equipment that are safe for areas where food is prepared or consumed.
Knowing the best types of cleaning materials in a kitchen and their uses can cut
down on the amount of time and effort you put into making the appliances and tools
in the space shine.

SOAPS AND CLEANERS FOR KITCHEN ITEMS
A good cleaner, whether homemade or commercial, can save your arms from
scrubbing, as well as save the pot or appliance from wear and tear. A few different
types of general cleaners are good to have on hand for various surfaces and
situations.
Grease-cutting dish soap is an effective liquid dish soap that will quickly pick up
grease. This keeps the pot or surface from getting rubbed raw in your efforts to
remove stubborn stains, saucy fingerprints and globs of oil from the surface.
Multi-purpose cleaner is there to help with tougher jobs. Floors, sinks, stovetops,
appliances and countertops may require a more abrasive cleaner, such as baking
powder and water or a powdered cleaner like Bar Keeper's Friend.
The types of chemicals used in cleaning and sanitizing kitchen tools and equipment
should be safe for food. Many homemade cleaners use household detergents and
sanitizers to great effect in the kitchen's many types of surfaces, from wood and
tile to laminate and stainless steel.
A mix of 1 part chlorine bleach to 2 parts hot water can rid the surfaces of germs
with one good rub down. Always test a small, unseen area before you begin to
make sure the bleach doesn't react badly with the appliance or cupboards material.
Vinegar, on the other hand, can be used in a spray bottle without mixing, although
not on granite or countertops that can be etched by this acidic cleaner.
After cleaning with soap and water, drying and then cleaning with vinegar, a light
spray of hydrogen peroxide (3 percent) can kill off any lingering bacteria from raw
Document No. 01
Commercial cleaners that use pine oil can disinfect kitchen surfaces, typically with
one pass. Dilute 1/4 cup of the pine oil cleaner with 1 gallon of warm water. Rinse
all areas after cleaning to ensure that the disinfectant is wiped clean from the
surfaces.
Wiping down all tops, sides and crevices in the kitchen with an antibacterial a few
times a week will ensure that the appliances, handles and other surfaces that get
touched often stay clean and free of germs. Try to do a thorough cleaning once a
month if weekly isn't possible.

CLEAN AND SANITIZE PREMISES
OBJECTIVE: At the end of the session, you will learn how to:
Immersion. For cookware, utensils, appliance inserts and other items that are
covered in a layer of grime, immersing them in a bath of sanitizing solution can
make them easier to clean. The sanitizer, such as diluted bleach or straight
vinegar, can lift stubborn food bits or thin layers of bacteria that are beginning to
colonize.
Sterilizing. Place smaller items in a large pan of boiling water and add a food-safe
sanitizer that won't introduce dangerous vapours into the air. Items can also be
steamed in a dishwasher or in a colander over a larger pot of boiling water.
Document No. 01
Bleach: used for sanitizing. Available from the non-perishables catalogue. Used to
sanitize food preparation surfaces. One tablespoon per gallon of water achieves
the accepted standard for food prep surface sanitation of 200 ppm. You can also
keep a bottle in the bathrooms for sanitizing door handles and other areas that are
touched a lot, or for tough mildew stains in the showers.
Comet: ordered from Costco, this powder bleach cleanser can be used in both
kitchen and bathroom to clean and sanitize. It is usually used on toilets and
showers but can also be used on counters and floors too.
Dish Soap comes from Costco and is usually Dawn. Since all dishes must be hand
washed, this is very important to have.
Dish machine detergent: a white solid brick that goes in the dispenser on the wall.
The solid is not harmful to your hands, but is necessary for cleaning your dishes
properly. It’s fairly expensive, but you won’t go through it that often unless you’re a
bigger house. Contains chlorine-based chemicals but used alone, is not acceptable
for sanitizing.
Food service hand soap: a clear liquid soap that comes in a small box for easy
mounting into hand soap dispensers it’s more expensive, less pleasant-smelling,
and tougher on your hands than its pink counterpart, but you have to have it in your
kitchen and the bathroom closest to your kitchen.

Lotion Hand Soap: similar to food service hand soap, but it is pink and has added
lotion to be less harsh on your hands, and is cheaper. Members usually prefer it
but Health Inspectors don't.
Mineral oil: used to seal wooden cutting boards and butcher blocks. Prevents wood
from cracking, rotting, retaining smells and stains, etc. Indispensable for houses
with such wooden items.
Powdered soap: Boraxo-brand powdered soap. Not very commonly used for hand-
washing due to its abrasive quality. Very useful in making home-made cleaning
solutions. See Clean & Green section of the KM manual for uses.
Reel-a-Peel: an orange-scented degreaser that is used only for metal surfaces. It’s
a little expensive but it works really well on grease. You have to order the case so
if you try to order one or two bottles, it won’t come. Reel a Peel is not food safe, so
make sure to sanitize any food preparation surfaces after using.
Rinse Aid is a green brick that turns into liquid and will make your dishes shiny. It’s
expensive and not necessary. Most houses don’t use it.
Sanitizing fluids: for the sanitizers used in the kitchens of all houses. There are two
kinds, red and yellow.
Score: orange solid that can be used with the dispensers currently installed in most
houses. In solution, Score is a degreaser. Not for use on wood. The dispensers
malfunction frequently so make sure that the concentration is right once dispensed.
Useful at low concentrations (a teaspoon or so per gallon) to mop floors if oil or
grease has been spilled on them. Gloves should be worn.
Document No. 01
Vegetable oil: Can also be used to clean the griddle. Much more pleasant then
vinegar. Canola oil can also be used, but it’s more expensive. Do not use olive or
corn oil as their smoke points are too low. Scrape any debris from griddle. Cover
with oil and turn all burners on high. Make sure oil doesn't all run off. Once any
grime starts to darken noticeably (but before it starts to smoke) turn off the burners.
Allow hot oil to cool. (5-10 minutes) Scrub griddle briefly with griddle brick to
introduce the abrasive material onto the griddle (optional). Using the griddle
handle-pad-screen combo and a little elbow grease, scrub til shiny!
White Vinegar: can be used to clean griddle top. If you warm the griddle and use
white vinegar to clean, the grease and food comes off very easily. (Our griddle is
actually silver) Make sure not to heat the griddle up too much or the vinegar will
evaporate too quickly and its fumes are hard on the nose. Also can be used with
large-grain salt to scrub rust off of abused woks. Not advisable for cast iron skillets
(some warm water and a potato are gentler).
Wood oil soap is used specifically for wood floors. Not as abrasive as many other
cleaning chemicals. Mix the soap according to the label and use on wood for a
lemony scent.

Chemicals are often toxic and bad for the environment. When we empty our
buckets down the sink, the poison can get into the water. Here are 3 ways you
can reduce the amount of cleaning chemicals put into the land, water and air.
1. Use microfiber cloths for cleaning. These are made of a special material
that removes dirt, grease and dust without chemicals.
2. Choose bio-degradable cleaning products, which are less harmful to the
environment.
3. When you dilute chemicals with water, only use the exact amount on the
label. Using more won’t clean any better and puts extra chemicals into the
environment.
