Revised information sheet "safely catered" from the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment - BfR

The BfR has updated its leaflet “Safely Provided - Particularly Sensitive Groups in Community Facilities”.

Previously, a minimum temperature of 65 °C was recommended for keeping food warm. In this year's revision, this temperature was lowered to 60 °C. The maximum time for keeping food warm remains at three hours.

By properly keeping food warm, existing spores can be prevented from germinating, thus maintaining the safety of the food.

We at BAV Institute also offer inspections and sample collections directly at your facility. We provide fast and reliable results and are happy to advise you on all matters regarding product safety. Our customer advisors are available to assist you with any questions.
