Link to (2)HACCP Manuals / Compilation HACCP Plans
Dear All,
This is a link to a pair of US / HACCP manuals known as the ‘Blue” and “Purple” Books respectively. Developed in USA particularly for seafood but a substantial amount of content (eg metal detectors) is generally applicable.
The Blue starts from basics whereas the Purple focuses more on specific product / process hazards although its introductory material contains some illuminating comments on debatable aspects of formulating HACCP plans.
The purple book contains the most detailed (generic) tabulation of HACCP / CCPs for a variety of storage scenarios, eg frozen, chilled seafoods, I hv seen anywhere. Most HACCP official sources do not seem to currently favour this prescriptive approach but personally I find it useful (bit like traditional teaching in schools ?)
One weakness of Blue Book IMO is that the “risk analysis” section is not very clear but a lot of it is excellent (and free :whistle: ).

added 040914 by Charles.C - sorry but above link long, long, gone :smile: . "Purple" book is the well-known USFDA fish/fishery guidance manual for hazards, latest ed.ca.2011 and posted at various places on this forum.

Added - also mainly for seafood – this site has one of the largest compilation of generic-type HACCP plans.

I hv added one more, 2-volume set, to my recommended "reading" list of HACCP manuals.
The HACCP Advantage project, mainly utilising the Canadian HACCP approach, offers an extremely valuable on-line resource for HACCP. It is certainly one of the most readable (free) presentations I hv seen.
Contains an amazingly comprehensive survey of (generic) prerequisite programs with detailed examples. Also has a nice implementation example for HACCP based on D-tree logic (I don't use this procedure myself but it seemed quite well done here).
1st manual is mainly prerequisites plus HACCP forms. 2nd focuses on principles and implementation of (Codex) HACCP.
Includes security. Interesting to see allergen control via prerequisite program.
