Setting the freezer to the right temperature helps preserve food perfectly.
It is also a way to use energy sensibly.
By setting your freezer to the right temperature, you can save energy.
So don't forget to set your freezer to the right temperature. Here's how:
All freezers are equipped with thermostats to regulate the internal temperature.
It is imperative to know the right food storage temperature so as not to break the cold chain or consume too much energy.
-18°C is exactly what it takes to store frozen products.
To check that your freezer is set correctly, you can use the appliance manual.
You will find the temperatures that correspond to the different thermostat scales.
I also learned that you should never refreeze thawed food.
By keeping food at -18°C, and by sticking to this little rule of hygiene, you also avoid problems such as food poisoning for example.
Using the right temperature for storing food in the freezer is an effective way to avoid wasting energy or using too much unnecessarily.
My electricity bill speaks for itself:when I switch from a temperature of -20°C to -18°C, I consume almost 10% less energy!
This easy-to-do trick allows you to recover purchasing power month after month.
