The optimal temperature regulation range in the refrigerator compartment is generally between 0 -5. This range ensures that food stays fresh, effectively extends the shelf life of food, and prevents the growth of bacteria and mold.
In this temperature range, food can be kept at a low temperature to slow down the rate of spoilage. For most ingredients, a temperature of 0 -5 is the most suitable because the moisture in the food is not easily lost in this temperature range, and the taste and flavor can be better preserved. In addition, low temperatures are effective in preventing the growth of bacteria and mold, thus reducing the risk of food spoilage.
However, different types of ingredients may have different requirements for refrigeration temperatures. For example, fresh meat and seafood are recommended to be stored at the lowest freezing temperature to maintain their freshness and safety. Perishable foods such as dairy products, yogurt, fruit juices, etc., usually need to be stored in the temperature range of 0 -5. When it comes to vegetables and fruits, while some vegetables can be stored at low temperatures, most fruits should be kept above the refrigeration temperature to maintain their mouthfeel and flavor.
In order to ensure that the temperature inside the refrigerator is always at its best, first make sure that the refrigerator's thermostat is set on the appropriate setting. Generally speaking, around 3 -4 is the ideal setting temperature. In addition, it is also necessary to ensure that the air-conditioning air circulation is smooth to avoid food blocking the vent holes and affecting the circulation of air-conditioning.
In addition, in order to better keep the temperature of the refrigerator room stable and avoid temperature fluctuations, we recommend keeping the door closed for as short a time as possible and avoiding storing too many ingredients at the same time for frequent opening and closing of the refrigerator door. This reduces changes in the temperature inside the refrigerator and maintains a stable low temperature environment.
Overall, setting the temperature of the refrigerator compartment between 0 -5 is ideal to extend the shelf life of ingredients and prevent bacterial growth while maintaining the quality and freshness of food. However, please note that different ingredients have different storage requirements, so they need to be adjusted appropriately according to the characteristics of the ingredients.
