Normal refrigerator temperature is approximately?
The ideal refrigerator temperature range is 1°-4.5°C (34°-40°F) . Bacterial and mold growth are considerably slowed down at these temperatures, thus retarding food spoilage. Since water freezes at 0°C (32°F), this prevents fresh foods from freezing, although when the temperature is at the low end of the range, some areas in the refrigerator may be below the freezing point. Most refrigerators have a control knob that you can use to raise or lower the temperature. Generally, they should be set around 40 degrees. Meat should ideally be kept below 35 degrees. Vegetables are okay closer to 50 degrees -- that's why you have a vegetable drawer that provides some insulation from the cooling mechanism.
