What this sheet is for
Record temperature checks through the day against the limits in your own documented process, with the corrective action recorded beside the failure.
Who it is for
Cafés, restaurants, takeaways, caterers, care homes, schools and anyone running a kitchen for other people.
How to use it
- Write your limits, and where they come from, in the header.
- Record the reading, not just a tick.
- Record what you did when a reading was out — that is the entry that matters.
- Check the probe itself regularly and note when you last did.
- Keep the sheets for as long as your local rules require.
What is on the sheet
The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.
Questions
What temperatures should I be recording against?
Those are set by the rules where you are and by your own documented process, and they differ by country and by stage. No figure is printed anywhere on this sheet, deliberately — write yours in the header.

Batch Production Record
Record the batch codes going in and the destinations going out, so a recall or a complaint can be traced to one day's production rather than all of it.

Kitchen Cleaning Rota
Set out who cleans what and how often, with initials against each day so the rota is a record rather than an intention.

One new sheet, most weeks
We are building this library out steadily. Leave an address and we will send the new sheets as they are finished — nothing else, and no more than one email a week.
Sign-up is not live yet — we have not connected an email provider, so this form is switched off rather than quietly collecting addresses.
