Neither. I always put the setting in the mid position and everything is just about perfect.

i,m embarressed, i did a quick stock take, i have in my possession 6 fridges,two here at the house a little fella in me shed, and the rest sitting in me other lock up shed at the block..but on the other hand you never know when your gonna need cold beer..so if 1 fucks up , i,ll be right

I used to work with a blast freezer, for packing frozen goods. Minus 25 C will make anything uncomfortable after about thirty seconds. Freezer burn is when the cells get destroyed, rather like frost bite on a human. The quicker you freeze something, the fewer the cells that are destroyed in the process.

Just put it on medium, then you can't lose either way

It is what happens to meat/veggies that are not sealed airtight when exposed to subzero temps. Essentially, the moisture is drawn out, and the meat gets dry and hard, discolored and off-taste.

On a tangent, just because you now have a ready source of icecubes, don't get carried away using them during your frolics. A little bit of ice in the mouth is fun, insertion is definately a no-no!

In that case I didn't know what freezer burn is...thought it was when a frozen something sticks to your hand so you get an 'ice' burn.

As to where the ice ends up, always oral, mostly with drinks.

Very informative. Taking notes.
