Bacteria can survive below about 55 C (131 F). |

The question was "how long" not "what temperature", and my answer is 18 minutes 23 seconds!! Sorry, it's been a long and painful day. |

Good answer, Mike! If the rating system was still in place, I would give you 5 stars. I applaud reading comprehension in a responder to a post. |

How long are commercial brews allowed to sit in whirlpool tanks before chilling? Dan --This space is again being left intentionally blank.-

Generally about 20-30 minutes, Dan. The whirlpools are covered and sanitized vessels. On smaller (about 20 barrels or less) systems, the whirlpooling is usually done right in the kettle. |

Tim, I hope I'm remembering this correctly from my cooking classes. But from a food service perspective, and according to HACCP, which dictates sanitation requirements for food service business, you need to worry about products when they are in the temperature danger zone. The TDZ is from 41 to 140 degrees F. I believe that you can leave something in the 120 to 140 range for a maximum of two hours and the 41 to 119 range for four hours without worrying about infection.
