Every safe temperature zone, monitored automatically
FoodReady watches the thresholds the FDA Food Code sets for food safety. Select a zone to see the target and how FoodReady keeps you inside it.
0°F
Frozen storage
Keep frozen goods solid at about 0°F. Continuous logging catches a freezer that starts to warm long before product thaws.
- Freezer temps logged around the clock with alerts on any thaw risk.
41°F or below
Cold holding
Temperature control for safety foods are held at or below 41°F. Coolers, walk ins, and reach ins are watched continuously.
- Every cold asset monitored against its 41°F limit, with instant alerts.
41°F to 135°F
The danger zone
Bacteria grow fastest between 41°F and 135°F. Time in this range is what turns a small slip into a safety risk.
- FoodReady flags any asset drifting into the zone so you act right away.
135 to 70 to 41°F
Two stage cooling
Cool cooked food from 135°F to 70°F within 2 hours, then from 70°F to 41°F within 4 more hours, for 6 hours total.
- Each cooling stage is tracked against the clock, with an alert if a stage runs long.
135°F or above
Hot holding
Hot held foods are kept at or above 135°F. A missed check here is a common audit finding.
- Hot hold units monitored with missed check reminders so nothing is forgotten.
up to 165°F
Cooking
Cook temperatures vary by food, up to 165°F for poultry. These are classic critical control points.
- Cook temps are verified as CCPs and attached to the batch automatically.

FAQ
What is temperature monitoring software?
It captures temperature readings across your coolers, freezers, lines, and storage, logs them automatically, and alerts you when a reading crosses a safe limit. FoodReady also links every reading to your HACCP or Preventive Controls plan so the record is audit ready.
Does it work with Bluetooth thermometers?
Yes. FoodReady offers Bluetooth thermometer integration, so a scanned reading lands in the correct CCP log automatically. You can also enter temperatures manually when a device is not connected.
What temperatures should I be monitoring?
The FDA Food Code sets a danger zone of 41°F to 135°F. Cold holding should stay at or below 41°F, hot holding at or above 135°F, and frozen storage near 0°F. Two stage cooling requires going from 135°F to 70°F within 2 hours, then 70°F to 41°F within 4 more. Confirm exact limits with your local health authority, since some states adopt earlier code versions.
How does it help during an audit?
Every reading is stored with a timestamp, the user, and any corrective action. When an inspector or customer asks for proof, you filter by product, line, date, or equipment and export a complete report in seconds.
What happens when a temperature goes out of range?
FoodReady sends an instant alert and opens a deviation you can work with root cause, corrective action, notes, and photos, then verify. The whole trail stays attached to the asset and the affected batch.
Which standards does it support?
Temperature records support FSMA Preventive Controls, the FDA Food Code, and GFSI schemes such as SQF, BRCGS, and FSSC 22000, because logs stay linked to your plan and ready to show.
