This is my first time defrosting a freezer. It was -10 degrees this evening on 30 January 2021. So, we took this opportunity to defrost the freezer. We put the frozen items on the balcony, switched off the freezer, put pots of hot water in the freezer, and placed a type of absorbing cloth at the bottom of the freezer. We hastened the process by putting a fan in front of the freezer to circulate the steam from the boiling water, around the freezer. Of course, one has to replace the boiling water several times as it cools down.
The defrosting process took about 1.5 hours. It is now easier to slide in and out the containers from the freezer, without the ice looming above the roof of each compartment. Which means I can stock up the freezer!
