Putting this into practice in Ireland
Build the working day around your Irish food-safety system. FSAI's Safe Catering pack separates delivery, refrigeration, cooking and cooling, hot display, hygiene and staff records. Choose the activities your cafe actually carries out, then keep the observations and decisions together for your environmental health officer.
FSAI: Safe Catering pack- Set the limits and checking frequency from your business's food-safety system. Record the probe check and any repair or replacement evidence alongside the equipment record; an air reading is not the food's core temperature.
- When a limit is missed, record the food affected and the action taken before the next reading. A later acceptable reading should not hide the earlier loss of control.
What it does
- Fast logging
- Record fridge, freezer and probe temperatures in seconds from any phone — no paper, no end-of-day catch-up.
- Out-of-range alerts
- Each reading is checked against the limits you set, so anything out of range is flagged for a corrective action there and then.
- Every reading kept
- Entries are time-stamped against the right site and unit, so a complete history builds itself.
- Probe checks too
- Capture probe calibration alongside temperatures so your checks and equipment stay in step.
- Bluetooth temperature capture — preview
- Connect a compatible probe in the mobile app, review its reading and confirm it into the record with the device identity and capture time. Physical probe and sensor compatibility has not yet been tested; no named hardware model is verified. Manual temperature entry remains available.

Act on what's flagged
Out-of-range readings prompt a corrective action, so nothing is quietly missed.
