Introduction
Frost buildup in freezers can be a frustrating issue, leading to reduced storage space and decreased efficiency. Fortunately, with a few simple steps, you can say goodbye to frost for good and maintain a clean, frost-free freezer. This guide covers easy methods, handy tips, and answers to your burning questions about freezer care.
Ingredients
While a frost-free freezer doesn’t require actual “ingredients,” here are the items and tools you’ll need for this process:
Baking soda
A clean, dry cloth
Airtight containers or freezer bags
Plastic scraper or spatula (optional)
Food-safe freezer-safe labels (optional)
Directions
Empty the Freezer
Start by transferring your frozen items to a cooler or another freezer to keep them cold during the cleaning process.
Turn Off the Freezer
Unplug the freezer or switch it off, and leave the door open to allow any frost to melt naturally.
Remove Frost Build-Up
If there’s significant frost, gently scrape it off with a plastic scraper. Be careful not to damage the freezer walls.
Clean the Freezer
Mix a tablespoon of baking soda with warm water and use this solution to wipe down the interior of the freezer. Baking soda neutralizes odors and prevents frost from sticking in the future.
