What is the difference between defrosing and cleaning the refrigerator?
Cleaning is the removal of mess. Defrosting is the removal of built-up ice that grew from the condensation of water in the air within the fridge.
Frozen fish in freezer past sell by date?
once it was put in the freezer BEFORE its sell by date it will be fine, but if it was me i'd make sure it was eaten within 24 of defrosting & check the manufacturers recommendations for how long to leave stuff in the freezer its usually use within 3 months of freezing so if its in there for 12 months i wouldn't eat it!
How long does ice cream keep without taste deteriorating?
That depends upon your freezer and the ice cream formulation. Store it closely covered and around 0°F - it will keep longer. Ice cream does not keep as well in self-defrosting freezers - it doesn't like the temperature fluctuations. If you store it at temperatures where it is easy to serve, it won't keep as long. I have had ice cream get yucky within a week of purchase in my refrigerator freezer, but keep well for several months in a chest freezer.
Why is freezer compartment is cooler than cooler compartment?
This is because when storing meat or anything you keep in the freezer compartment, you will need a colder place (0 to 4 degrees) to store these items, so when you need to store things like cooked food, you should store it in the fridge compartment seeing as you will eat within the next day or so but if you want to keep cooked food for a longer period of time, store it in the freezer compartment as it will be eaten a while later.
Why are freezer on top of fridge?
One possible reason is because of the size of the freezer compared to the size of the refrigerator portion. If the refrigerator portion were placed over the freezer, then you would have to kneel down to use the freezer. Another part of it could pertain to convection. Cold air tends to circulate down. So with the right amount of gap between the freezer portion and the rest, just enough cold air can flow down to cool the refrigerator. So the evaporator coils are only in the freezer and yet can cool the entire unit. If the evaporator coils were on the bottom, then only the lower portion of the refrigerator would be cool since heat rises, and some of the cavity space would be wasted. So for simplicity and efficiency, the coils are placed on top and that this area is made the freezer. So they cool only the freezer and have a small opening to let the cold air come down (or warm air to come up to be more accurate) to reach the 34-38 degrees Fahrenheit needed for the refrigerator. Sometimes there is an adjustable damper there. The thermostat is just for the refrigerator in most cases, since if the refrigerator is within proper range, the freezer would be too, all because of the design. On those with a control for the freezer, that control generally moves a little damper (door). So the colder you set the freezer, the harder you are making the refrigerator portion to cool. Since the actual thermostat is located in the refrigerator section, the longer the compressor must run to make that compartment the proper temperature when you close the damper (by setting the freezer control colder).
How do you freeze seafood gumbo?
yes you can freeze it! Cool first in refrigerator so it does not have large molecules of moisture that crystalize into freezer burn. Use high quality freezer ware and leave room for expansion. Also double or even triple wrap in freezer paper and freezer bags. Thaw in refrigerator and eat within 6 months.
Is ok to keep the NuvaRing in the freezer?
Yes, it is recommended that you keep Nuva Ring in the refrigerator if you won't use it within four months. You can keep it in the refrigerator, if you prefer, even if you're going to use it before that time.
Why does food in a supermarket freezer not defrost?
Defrosting is necessary to rid the cooling pipes of a refrigerator of ice formed over them. The thick crust of ice prevents the refrigerator from absorbing more heat from the refrigerator/freezer contents hence it needs to be defrosted so that the encrusted ice over the circulation pipes carrying the refrigerant can be melted away so that the refrigerator can work more efficiently.
Why does the ice not deposit in the freezer of a refrigerator equipped with defrosting techniques?
The mechanism on a refrigerator involves heating the cooling element (evaporator coil) for a short period, melting any frost that has formed upon it and having it drain through a collecting duct at the back of the unit. The cycle is controlled by an electric or electronic timer: For every six to 12 hours of compressor operation it runs a defrost heater element for about 15 minutes to a half hour. The defrost heater, having a typical power rating of 350 W to 600 W, is mounted just below the evaporator coil and is protected from short circuits with fusible links. Older refrigerators ran the timer continuously, but to activate the defrost heater less often and thereby save energy, contemporary designs run the timer only when the compressor motor runs, so if the refrigerator door is left closed, the compressor and heater element will run less often. The defrost heater circuit also includes a defrost thermostat that senses when the cooling element temperature has risen to 40�F (5�C), or warmer, interrupting the current flow in the element and preventing excessive heating of the freezer compartment. The defrost timer is designed to run the compressor motor or the defrost heater, but not both at once.Inside the freezer, dry air is circulated around the cabinet using one or more fans. In a typical design the cold air from the freezer compartment is ducted to the fresh food compartment, and circulated back into the freezer compartment. Air circulation helps sublimate any ice that may form on frozen items in the freezer compartment.Instead of the traditional cooling elements assembled within the freezer liner, auto-defrost elements are compact and separated from the main cabinet space, allowing them to be heated for short periods to dispose of any ice that has formed.

How many days can leftover cooked tuna stay in the refrigerator?
If you keep it in the freezer, about 2 months. Plan to use refrigerated leftover cooked tuna within a day or two.
What is the purpose of a MWF filter?
An MWF filter generally works within a refrigerator or fridge freezer. It is part of a water cooling dispenser and helps to keep the water pure and free from inpurities.
