What is the typical temperature for a pie warmer?
Hot Storage Hot potentially hazardous food should be stored at or above 60°C at all times. Equipment that can be used to keep potentially hazardous foods hot include: • Bain Marie • Pie Warmer * Potentially hazardous food must be placed into bain maries and pie warmers hot as they are designed to maintain hot temperatures and not to heat food up to 60°C or above. Bain maries and pie warmers must also be hot prior to placing hot potentially hazardous foods into them.
How long can cooked macaroni last without a fridge?

What food is not considered potentially hazardous food?
Foods that are not considered potentially hazardous are typically those that do not support the rapid growth of pathogenic microorganisms. Examples include dry foods such as rice, pasta, and grains, as well as canned goods, sugar, and certain fruits and vegetables that are not cut or processed. These foods generally have low moisture content or are shelf-stable, making them less likely to harbor harmful bacteria.

To keep bacteria from growing
Why are some foods such as chicken and cooked rice called potentially hazardous foods?
Chicken is a healthy and versatile meat. If it is not cooked enough it is potentially dangerous and can cause harmful effects to your health. Any bacteria in fresh chicken will be killed by thoroughly cooking the chicken. However, there are other types that will remain even after cooking. So make sure that you thoroughly cooked your chicken meals before eating. As for rice, it's considered potentially hazardous because it contains moisture and is a low acid food.
