Hi, I want to know if a granola/snack bar manufacturing process would fall under an Ambient High Care Area as described in the BRC guide issue 7. I dont think so based on the decision tree provided as we do not have any production kill step however are only using heat to melt a syrup that would bind our dry ingredients together.

 

Any guidance in this matter would help greatly.

 

Thanks

Hi Nusrat 

 

I agree with you the production of you Granola Bar should not be classified as Ambient High Care area cause the process has no kill step. It is only  a mixing and pressing operation.

 

Kind regards

Hi nusrat,

 

I suggest that in addition to using the ambient decision tree, you also study the associated text for ambient high care in the context of the ingredients (??)  used.

Especially the bulleted paragraphs 1,2,5.
