Java Central

Some have asked about Java Central’s sanitation practices during the COVID-19 crisis. We’ve been diligently adapting our processes since the first week of March (2020) to decrease all exposure risks normally present in our operation. Here is a list of practices we’ve changed or added:

1) Hand sanitizer stations were immediately placed by each entrance and exit and by the cash register on 3/9/2020.
2) All staff have been trained and required to wash or sanitize hands more frequently and thoroughly than our normal practices. We began this training more than two weeks ago. Critical control points (CCP) regarding hand washing have been identified and trained.
3) Java Central has three members of our staff with Level 2 Franklin County Health Department food handlers certification. Four team members have SerfSafe certification and owner Andy Piper is a state-licensed Preventative Controls Qualified Individual (PCQI) for food production and manufacturing.
4) Java Central Cafe and Roaster maintains a Level 3 County Health Department license and has a consistently clean record with the government.
5) As many common touch points (places where multiple customers will touch the same spot) have been eliminated as is possible.
6) Staff are required to report their body temperature daily. Individuals with temperatures higher than 100 degrees will be required to quarantine.
7) Customers who are waiting to order or pickup are being asked to stand 6ft apart.
8) Our café is open for dine-in, however, we are strictly adhering to the CDC guidelines and require dine-in customers to wear a mask at all times (when not actively taking a bite or sip).
9) All surfaces, door and faucet handles, cash register screen and card readers, kitchen utensils and machinery is sanitized every 30-60 minutes. Gloves are worn for all food preparation as well as whole bean coffee bagging.
