Brilio.net - A refrigerator is an important tool for storing various foods and drinks to make them last longer. This cooling device has two main parts, namely the chiller and freezer, which have different functions in storage. The existence of a refrigerator is a basic need, especially for people who often store stocks of vegetables, fruits, and fresh meat for daily needs.
The freezer as the part of the refrigerator with the lowest temperature requires special care compared to the chiller. The very low temperature in the freezer causes frost to form easily which can build up over time. The buildup of frost that is left too long can cover all the food ingredients making it difficult to take.
Several methods have been developed to overcome the problem of frost in the freezer. Prevention methods can be done by attaching plastic before frost forms so that it is easy to remove when cleaning. Another common method is to use a fan to speed up the process of melting frost. Meanwhile, a netizen with the TikTok account @keluargajagoan has a different way of dealing with the problem.
Initially, all the contents of the refrigerator, especially the freezer, that can be taken out should be removed first. To keep it cold, food can be put in a cooler box.
"If you don't have one, you can use a large basin," he explained, quoted by BrilioFood from TikTok @keluargajagoan on Monday (28/10).
Next, prepare some cloths or rags and place them at the bottom of the refrigerator. The purpose is so that the water from the melting frost will not flood the kitchen floor.

After that, boil the water until it is almost boiling. Put the boiled water into a heat-resistant bowl or basin. The owner of the TikTok account @keluargajagoan uses three bowls of hot water because it adjusts the number of freezer shelves. Then, place a bowl of hot water on each freezer shelf and close the refrigerator door.
"Close the freezer door, let it sit for 10-15 minutes," said TikTok @keluargajagoan.
After being left to stand, but the frost is still quite thick, the same method can be repeated. In addition, if the water in the bowl is cold, it can be replaced with new hot water so that the process of melting the frost is completed faster. Close the refrigerator and let it stand for another 10 to 15 minutes.

When the frost has started to thin, the food that is still stuck in the freezer can be removed. If there is still frost covering the food, you can scrape the frost with a wooden spatula so that it does not scratch the refrigerator shelves. After there is no more food left, the frost can be poured with water in a bowl that previously contained hot water so that it melts quickly.

Finally, when all the frost is gone, dry every corner of the freezer shelf using a clean cloth. If the freezer is completely dry and clean, the food that was previously moved can be put back. Wow, now the refrigerator freezer looks more spacious because the frost is gone, right?
