The strip turned orange which correlated with 0 ppm (parts per million) on the test strip container. V6 stated the test strip should be green which correlates with 100-150 ppm. He stated they are probably out of cleaner, and it probably just needs to be changed. On 5/13/24 at 10:02 AM, V7, Dietary Aid, went to the dish room to get cups. Several of the cups she was taking away had a dark tint inside. V7 stated, They're stained. Sometimes you have to run them through twice; otherwise they come out looking like this.
