Food safety & traceability

The APPCC logbook (temperatures, cleaning, deliveries)

Updated: 2026-05-31

The APPCC logbook (temperatures, cleaning, deliveries)

Also known as: cuaderno de autocontrol, APPCC, HACCP logbook, registros de higiene, temperature log, cleaning record.

This is the digital version of the cuaderno de autocontrol a Sanidad inspector asks to see — the daily record of the checks that keep food safe. It's one configurable engine: you define control points, staff sign them off, and brasio keeps an immutable, hash-chained record plus an inspector export.

Turn it on with Admin → Ajustes → APPCC / Higiene. A Higiene tile and a Puntos de control tile then appear.

Define your control points

In Puntos de control, add the checks your kitchen runs. Each has a type and a frequency:

  • Temperature — e.g. Nevera 1, target 0–5 °C; Congelador, ≤ −18 °C. brasio decides pass/fail against the range automatically.
  • Cleaning — e.g. Limpieza superficies, signed off done / issue.
  • Delivery — supplier + reception temperature + accepted / rejected.
  • Generic — any other yes/no check.

Frequency can be per shift, daily, twice-daily, weekly or monthly — twice-daily fridge temps and a weekly deep-clean, for instance.

Today's checks

The Higiene · Hoy screen shows what's pending or overdue right now, grouped by type, with a count badge. Staff tap a check and enter the reading (a number pad for temperatures). No manager PIN is needed — logging a check is routine.

Corrective actions

If a check fails — a temperature out of range, or a cleaning marked as an issue — brasio requires a corrective-action note before it saves ("moved to the spare fridge, called the technician"). The failure is always recorded; it's never hidden. That note is exactly what an inspector wants to see.

The cuaderno export

From Registros, export the logbook for any date range as a PDF cuaderno de autocontrol (grouped by control point, APTO / NO APTO, with operator and corrective actions) or a CSV for your records. The export is in Spanish — it's the document a Spanish inspector reads — even when staff use the app in English.

Optionally, if ingredient traceability is also on, the delivery check can be offered right on the goods-in screen, linking the reception temperature to the lot you just received.
