Brilio.net - The phenomenon of frost in the freezer has become commonplace. The refrigerator freezer basically contains water vapor. When the water vapor meets the low freezer temperature, frost appears on each side.

Although it can lower the temperature in the freezer , frost can also be quite an annoying problem, especially if it is large and piled up. If the freezer is not cleaned regularly, this frost can thicken and even pile up the food stored in it. In addition, the accumulated frost also makes it difficult to close the freezer door tightly.

Therefore, it is important to clean the frost periodically. Most people usually let the frost melt so that it is easier to clean and does not damage the refrigerator. This can be done by unplugging the refrigerator and then letting the frost melt.

In addition to unplugging the power, some also use warm water. The frost in the freezer will be doused with warm water so that it melts quickly. Although effective, this method must be done carefully so that the warm water does not touch other machines in the refrigerator.

To be safer, you can follow a simple trick shared by YouTube user Love IceBerg. Through one of the uploaded YouTube Shorts videos, he only uses one kitchen tool. This tool tends to be blunt, so it is safe to use and does not damage the freezer walls.

As reported by BrilioFood from YouTube Love ICE on Wednesday (25/9), the tool used was a stainless steel ladle. In the video, YouTube user Love IceBerg initially wanted to clean the frost using a small frost removal shovel. When pressed, the hard frost was difficult to remove.

Finally, the YouTube user took a ladle and tapped the frost on the top of the freezer. Instantly, the frost that was stuck fell off. In addition, the tapping also created a gap between the frost and the freezer wall. Now, the frost that has started to loosen can be pried off slowly and taken directly using your hands.

Then the fallen frost can be immediately taken and cleaned. You can scoop out the fallen frost using the ladle. Do this process until the frost in the freezer is completely gone and clean, okay?

This method of cleaning frost tends to be safer and easier. Compared to using a knife or other sharp tool, a ladle is safer to use. That way, it can minimize leaks or scratches on the freezer walls.
