Ill. Admin. Code tit. 11, § 100.160 - Sanitation
a) All licensees
must conduct their business in premises which are at all times kept clean and
sanitary. This applies not only to licensed premises, but to places of storage
as well. This includes also the place of storage for materials and equipment
used in the manufacture of alcoholic liquor.
b) Cleaning Requirements
1) Each retailer, not using one of the
systems referred to in subsection (b)(2), dispensing draught beer or wine shall
have coils and other equipment used in drawing draught beer or wine cleaned at
least once every week in some manner or means, either chemical or mechanical.
The use of steam or hot water alone is not permissible.
2) Retailers utilizing systems such as
"glycol," "constant cold," "electronic," or "constant cleaning," which are
designed to prevent build-up of contaminants in the dispensing system, shall be
required to have coils and other equipment used in drawing draught beer or wine
cleaned at least once every two weeks in some manner or means, either chemical
or mechanical, and monitor the operation of the system to determine it is
operational and to verify its proper functioning, at least once every
week.
3) A record shall be kept of
the dates when the cleaning was done, signed by the person who actually
performed the cleaning and monitoring.
c) No retail licensee shall offer for sale or
possess on the licensed premises any bottles, casks or other containers of
alcoholic liquor which contain any deleterious, contaminated, filthy, or putrid
substance or insects.
d) No
licensed manufacturer or importing distributor shall fill or refill any
container of alcoholic liquor unless such person possesses upon the licensed
premises adequate and sanitary equipment for cleaning, washing and sterilizing
such container, and uses such equipment before filling or refilling a
container.
e) Pre-mixed alcoholic
beverages and their containers must comply with all sanitation requirements
found in this Section, along with all prohibitions against refilling found in
Section
100.290(c).
All pre-mix dispensing containers or systems must be drained, contents disposed
of, and thoroughly cleaned at least once every week. For mechanical systems a
record shall be kept on the premises as to the dates the cleaning was done,
signed by the person who actually performed the cleaning.
