Once you’ve a refrigeration room installed it’s essential that you make use of it correctly in order to get the best possible result from your unit. Our seasoned technicians have compiled a few tips that’ll help you to properly use cold storage for food at your premises.
Get to know the ideal temperature:
Whether you store one kind of food or many different kinds it’s worth considering the fact that vegetables, fruits and meat are sometimes needed to be kept at different temperatures.
Find out the correct temperature your products can be stored at & regulate your cold room’s setting as per that. Keeping your goods at the best possible temperature will make sure its quality is maintained for a long time.
Keep your cold storage system clean:
It’s critical that you maintain cleanliness of your cold storage unit. Dust and dirt aren’t just bad for the goods you’re keeping inside the unit. They could also prompt damage to your cold storage unit by decreasing its efficiency.
Ensure you maintain cleanliness of your cold room unit & that you report any damage to our maintenance crew as quickly as possible. Remember, broken panels or defective cold room parts can have a significant negative impact on the efficiency & overall performance of your refrigeration room.
Think about stock rotation:
Always keep an eye on when your stock is going to go out of date. Shift products that need to be used soon to the front of your shelves and add fresh items with a later expiry date to the back of the unit. The products that you need to use first will then be selected to be cooked or included in a recipe. Stock rotation is an excellent way to steer clear of wastage.
Organize your storage:
It’s essential that to steer clear of contamination, raw & cooked items are never positioned next to each other inside your refrigerator chamber. Always store them separately. Also you need to avoid handling different meats, and raw & cooked stock, one after the other.
You must put vegetables, fruit, and meat in separate sections of your refrigeration unit. If you don’t do so you increase the possibility of your products spoiling.
