Observed employee leave kitchen, feed two dogs a dog treat, pet dogs, and return to kitchen to briefly rinse hands for 3-4 seconds. Discussed the importance of proper hand washing and when hand washing is required with the person-in-charge (PIC). Hands must be washed at any time contamination occurs and when changing tasks. Proper handwashing procedure is to rinse hands with warm water, scrub with soap for 10-15 seconds, rinse with warm water, dry with approved drying provision, and turn off in a manner to prevent re-contamination of hands. Entire process should take approximately 20 seconds for full and proper handwashing to prevent spread of pathogens and contamination. Employee properly washed hands at handwash sink at time of inspection. Corrective Action: Corrected at time of inspection.

Per PIC, the cold brew was kegged on 6/26. PIC discarded cold brew kept past discard date and labeled the other keg with the appropriate keg date/time at time of inspection. Per PIC, cold brew is grinded from beans, steeped in cold water under refrigeration, and kegged on-site in the establishment. Per PIC, kegged cold brew is only supposed to be retained for 48 hours and then discarded if not used. Without an approved variance, all kegged cold brew must be labeled with the kegged date and time, held at 41*F or below, and used or discarded within 48 hours of being kegged. A variance/HACCP must be obtained prior to conducting any specialized processes.
