Practical Irish kitchen tips:
Setpoint vs. product: the cabinet air can fluctuate during door openings. Verify with a probe between packs or in a product simulator rather than relying only on the display.
Allow headroom in busy service: if the freezer is opened frequently (banqueting prep, dessert pick-ups), many operators run a slightly colder setpoint to keep product safely at -18°C during peaks.
Record it: log the displayed temperature and a periodic product check as part of HACCP, especially after deliveries, deep cleans, or menu changeovers.
