Hospitality Practical Cookery Planning �Time Plans �Best practice is to use small time increments, 5/10/15 mins is ideal. Try and not use 20 mins plus too often. It is easier for you to follow if you keep to this. When you break it down into 2 and 3 min sections it becomes confusing and harder to follow.

Include CAYG. �You must complete all tasks in the allocated time you have - 2 hrs 25 mins.
