This last week we began to notice that our white gravy mixes were seriously breaking down at a rapid rate as they sat at temperature on the steamtable! How frustrating! Out of curiousity, I phoned the water treatment plant and asked if there was any chemical that they had or had not put into the water lately, that may be affecting it's quality. "Yes, they had recently used Lime" for some reason. So we took some good old well water from our house to the restaurant & tried it and viola, we once again have quality gravy that doesn't breakdown in a half hour! Has anyone else experienced this and do you have any feedback for us, because we certainly don't want to haul water in every day!
That's crazy why would they add lime to the water? Good call on calling them up to solve that one quickly, they put some crazy crap in our water these days
