If other equipment is being cleaned, follow the guidelines established for that equipment. B. Cleaning and sanitizing should be accomplished only by trained personnel. Sanitary gloves are to be used during cleaning and sanitizing operations. Applicable safety precautions must be observed. Instruction warnings on the product being used must be followed. C. Water lines are not to be disconnected during the cleaning and sanitizing of syrup lines to avoid contamination. D. Do NOT use strong bleaches or detergents.

The mixture ratio, using Ivory Liquid, is one (1) ounce of cleanser to two (2) gallons of water. A minimum of five (5) gallons of cleaning mixture should be prepared. Any equivalent cleanser may be used as long as it provides a caustic based, non-perfumed, easily rinsed mixture containing at least two (2) percent sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Rinsing must be thorough and use clean, potable water which is also at a temperature of 90° to 110°F. NOTE Extended lengths of product lines may require that an additional volume of cleaning solution be prepared. B. Sanitizing solutions should be prepared in accordance with the manufacturer's written recommendations and safety guidelines. The solution must provide 200 parts per million (PPM) available chlorine. A minimum of five (5) gallons of sanitizing solution should be prepared. Any sanitizing solution may be used as long as it is prepared in accordance with the manufacturer's written recommendations and safety guidelines, and provides 200 parts per million (PPM) available chlorine.

NOTE Please note that a fresh water rinse cannot follow sanitization of equipment. Purge only with the end use product until there is no after taste in the product. This is an NSF requirement. Extended lengths of product lines may require that an additional volume of sanitizing solution be prepared. C. Other: (1) Clean cloth towels. (2) Bucket.
