A must-read for restaurants, cloud kitchens, café owners & hotel chefs.
Maintaining the right temperature inside a commercial dishwasher is essential for food safety. If your plates, cutlery, or utensils are not sanitized at the correct heat level, harmful bacteria can remain—even after a full wash cycle. This is where the DishTemp Dishwasher-Safe Thermometer becomes an essential tool for every restaurant, hotel, café, and cloud kitchen in India.
In this blog, we’ll explain what DishTemp is, why kitchens use it, and how it helps you stay compliant with hygiene standards.
What Is a DishTemp Dishwasher-Safe Thermometer?
DishTemp is a specially designed high-temperature, waterproof, and durable thermometer that goes inside the dishwasher during a wash cycle.
Instead of guessing the temperature, DishTemp accurately measures the surface temperature of plates and utensils.
This helps kitchens verify whether the dishwasher is truly achieving sanitizing temperatures.
Why DishTemp Is Important for Restaurants & Food Businesses
✅ 1. Ensures Proper Sanitization
To kill bacteria, the dishwasher must reach the correct sanitization temperature:
- Hot Water Sanitization: 71°C or above
- Chemical Sanitization: As per chemical manufacturer guidelines
✅ 2. Accurate Surface Temperature (Not Air Temperature)
Traditional probe thermometers measure air or water temperature, which can be misleading.
DishTemp directly measures the surface temperature of the plates, giving the most accurate reading for hygiene inspection.
✅ 3. Helps Meet Food Safety Standards
It supports compliance with:
- FSSAI hygiene guidelines
- ISO food safety audits
- Hotel industry sanitization standards
Auditors often ask for proof of dishwasher sanitization—DishTemp provides verifiable results.
✅ 4. Saves Time and Prevents Rewash
With accurate readings:
- Staff know instantly whether the washer is performing correctly
- No need to repeat wash cycles unnecessarily
- Saves water, electricity, and time
