Upright Freezer - Quick-Freezing

Although freezing is fast and efficient throughout your upright freezer, foods can be frozen most quickly on the top shelf. Quick freezing is most effective when the temperature control is set at 4 or higher.

 

If you plan to quickly freeze large amounts of food, turn the temperature control to the coldest setting several hours before you place the food in the freezer. Never freeze more than three pounds of food per cubic foot of freezer capacity at one time.
