AIR-DRY = NOT towels (recontamination!)
53
stages of mechanical dishwashing***
1) pre-rinse, pre-wash 2) wash 3) rinse
54
mechanical dishwashing: pre-rinse, pre-wash temperature; is it bad for this range to go lower or higher?***
110-140F; HIGHER IS BAD
55
mechanical dishwashing: purpose of pre-rinse, pre-wash stage?***
removes food before hot water coagulates protein
56
mechanical dishwashing: wash stage at what temperature? is it bad for this range to go lower or higher and why?***
140-160F; LOWER IS BAD = GREASY DISHES
57
mechanical dishwashing: rinse stage at what temperature? is it bad for this range to go lower or higher***
